What about the destruction in Iraq and to our troops and their families?

We are in agreement on this point. Sorry I wasn't more direct. My point is that "others," those you describe, are the only ones bearing the burden of this incredibly stupid enterprise. The average American is not impacted. If we actually had to bear the cost of this debacle, more people would be objecting to the cost in "treasure" even if they continue to ignore the other costs, including the lives of so many.
To the original question though, I think we must figure out how to pay for this disaster. I didn't vote for the crew in the white house, but, as Bush was elected (sort of, the first time and for real the second time) by the voters of this country, we bear a responsibility to pay for the mess. Our kids and grandchildren do not.
