Questions I have, part 1: when is a trillion not a trillion?

When Bush signed his $1.3 trillion tax cut in June of 2001, a cut that largely benefited the super-wealthy, who screamed and complained?

When Bush took us to war with an unknown price tag, who wondered 'how will we pay for it'?

So now, why does the right wing get so breathless about a health care plan that provides what should be a basic human right, and according to the CBO, will generate a surplus?

Why are wars and handouts to the rich preferable to basic health care for all?
