Before anyone blames just Democratics or Liberals, Let's remember the
Iraqi War is costing 12 BILLON A MONTH. Mostly borrowed from China.

The true cost of the Iraq war will likely exceed a trillion, possibly two
trillion. Lovely.

One Trillion Seconds Ago...it was 1164 BC. Pharoah Ramesses V died of
smallpox, and it was the middle of the time of the Judges in ancient Israel.

One Trillion Minutes Ago...was 1.9 million years ago. It was the beginning
of the Pleistocene epoch, Earth was 30% covered with ice, and the Homo
erectus was the human ancestor in existence.

One Trillion Hours Ago...was 114 million years ago. It was the Cretaceous
period. Dinosaurs were at their most diverse. Africa and South America had
just separated, forming the Atlantic Ocean.

One Trillion Days Ago...was 2.7 billion years ago. It was the Archean
geologic eon. The oldest rock formations on Earth are from this era. There
was virtually no oxygen in the atmosphere, the sun was 1/3 dimmer than it is
now, and life consisted of non-nucleated single-celled organisms. This was
the beginning of the "Snowball Earth" period, when almost the entire planet
may have been covered in ice.

Spending a trillion $$:
