LIBERAL DRIVEL

A fraction of the cost of the Iraq war would be enough to feed the world's poor and help boost peace and security, the head of the United Nations food agency said yesterday.

"We look at tens of billions being spent today in Iraq, the conflict... (With) even a small percentage of the commitment that the world has made to Iraq, you could feed every hungry child in the world," James Morris, executive director of the World Food Programme (WFP), told a news conference.

Oh, good point Einstein. A fraction of the cost of the Iraq war will feed the world?

What about a fraction of the freakin' UN budget of which the USA pays the lions share?

How about a fraction of what Osama Bin Laden has spent to finance Islamofacism around the world?

How about a fraction of the billions poured into Saddam's garish houses as a result of the United Nation's own "Oil for Palaces Program".

All you have established Mr. Morris, is that a fraction of a very large number can still yield a very large number.

Where you are an idiot, Mr. Morris, is that you choose to imply that the liberation of 25 million oppressed Iraqis is an opportunity cost to the feeding of the world's hungry.

Mr. Morris, a fraction of the oxygen that you breathe would sustain newborn babies for days. But that doesn't make it a sensible argument now does it?
