"Mr Kerry, who chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said he and Republican Senator Richard Lugar would soon introduce legislation aiming to provide Pakistan with $7.5bn in non-military aid over five years."
OK we just had a HUGH bail out (Stimulus) then the House stuck it to us and I hear next week the Senate will do the same (stick it to us). And now Kerry and Lugar want us (you know no other country will "give aid")to pay another 7.5 billion. What are they thinking? Where is all this money coming from? Did I miss something, Is there a money tree I do not know about?

Relax, folks...we've got plenty of time.
Seriously, though, this is getting so bloody ridiculous. Do these congressional simpletons realize that this money they are spending has to be produced by the private sector, a sector that is contracting due to a slumping economy? In other words, they are making promises they may not be able to keep. This is like sitting in the passenger seat while the drunk behind the wheel floors the gas pedal and says, "Watch this!"

So if we give them the money,and the shithole collapses anyway,won't the Taliban,who'll probably gain control have access to the treasury vault.That's a lot of extra bead to buy more nukes on the black market isn't it?
To: blueyon
Five billion? They want a handout equaling a quarter of their yearly tax base for...what? Oh, right right, I forget, religious fanatics always can get support from Democrats if they hate Jews and don’t worship Jesus.
Chump change, considering the recent spending spree we’ve been on, but please, just sit back and give a wink and nod to India to go handle their terrorism problem.
Oh, right, keep forgetting - the Saudis and the rest will sit on their hands when Pakistan is in need, but if India tries to defend itself, they’ll flood up the money to pay for the military, I’m sure.

Tell them OK, but they have to take $25 billion. We don’t do no small bailouts.
To: blueyon
"What are they thinking? Where is all this money coming from? Hey it's only paper!; so why all the fuss?
Why don't we just print up and send them $200 gazillion?
That way we should just about meet any future need they might have too.
And while we're at it, we really should send a couple billion quadrillion to the Arab states and end "Muslim Extremism" once and for all. We'll take it from Israel( bankrupting them), and then Israel can do like us and print up some more cash, and they'll be happy too.
See how easy it can be when you think like a liberal?:....... problem solved!
