i just read an article on the pentagon's "black" budget but i can't remember where i read it. i think 58 billion disappeared down the black hole last year.
it boggles the mind to think of all the skullduggery going on with military spending.
Ted - That's a bad thought, selling them nukes, it could so happen though.
Billy - No telling what it's paying for huh?
It would probably make a great movie to see where all that money went.
