Priorities

Yeah, who cares about stopping terrorists from killing thousands more Americans? Who cares about the thousands of Iraqis who have not been killed by Saddam's thugs since he was deposed? Who cares about giving the Iraqi people a chance at freedom for the first time in generations? We could've spent that money to get pretty pictures from space! Maybe even put some footprints and the UN flag on Mars (we surely wouldn't be so crass as to put an American flag there, would we?) Sorry, but I disagree. I have a different set of priorities.
