all in all its just alot of money going to be spent, and the bottom line is that the government is not going down anytime soon.(which i think was your point when showed it)

To tell you the truth I don't really know what you're implying with your post. The creator is politically motivated and as such that's why he put Iraq on there? That perhaps he should use a picture of masked men of Arab decent instead?
- The War on Terror was not in the 2004 budget so you won't see it on the chart.
- The War on Terror was in the 2009 budget and therefore is in the chart.
- 76% of money allocated to The War on Terror goes to Iraq and 20% goes to Afghanistan. That's real talk right there.
Anywho, the
Obama budget is out today, we'll see if the creator is politically motivated. Not sure what I should look for though, maybe you can give me the right perspective.
