Well, a simple "No, Davin, I'm not going to answer any questions that would have me back up my narrow, misleading and selectively quotes statistics" would suffice

And add into that: "And I am going to honestly believe that you can build up a country of millions and forestall their descent into uneducated sectarian extremism on a budget of 1.5 bln from america and 4.4 bln total!!"

Why should we give Iraq, who is in far better shape, 10 times that- if good ol' Afghanistan needs only 4 bln? Hmm? I wonder...

But, maybe again, you'll come around another day. Last I checked, you eventually came around with the Iraq-is-threat and WMD thing- and it only took several thousand corpses and an indefinite occupation of another civilization!

But far better than abandoning your beliefs to a m-f liberal, right? I mean I have to be wrong for this world to operate, right?

I direct you here

Please, keep the faith! (because I shure as hell don't want it!)
