Lets give Pakistan more aid so they can keep on hiding Bin Laden from us and help out the Taliban. The same for Afganistan, lets give them aid so they can support the Taliban.

did you even pay attention to what i posted above? did you read any of it? it's all well and good to say cut foreign aid, but again, it's a negligible amount when you compare it to our overall budget. it would be luck you attempting to help your personal budget by not buying a bottle of water once a month. as for what you wrote above, that has a lot more to do with military spending than foreign aid. but i'd imagine the thought of cutting military spending would throw you into hysterics, without you actually even looking at what our military spending entails.
