2 billion of the requested money will be used to build an embassy in Irag. 2 BILLION!!!
What the hell kind of embassy are they planning to build? The tallest building in the world, the Petronas Tower, in Kuala Lumpur built in '98, cost 1.6 billion.
I want to see this embassy when they're done. It will truly be one of the modern marvels.
It will certainly be more impressive than this ol' piece of crap...
