    "the total cost of the war, including the long-term care that will be required for its veterans, could reach a staggering $2 trillion.

    Even at $3.29 a gallon, that would buy a lot of gasoline."

    Yeah. That is enough to buy a million barrels of gas (not crude oil), at $3.29 per gallon, every day for thirty years. (ANWR's output was expected to fill U.S. demand for about six months.) Someone needs to talk to Mr. Bush about the cost/benefit side of his war.
