From today's White House press briefing:
Q What are the administration's latest cost estimates on the war? Are you familiar with the Stiglitz article that came out over the weekend...$12 billion a month he's now estimating.
MS. PERINO: I'm not going to dispute his estimates. [...]
Q So what's your estimate of the monthly cost of the war?
MS. PERINO: I don't have it.
The cost today:
Five U.S. soldiers were killed and three others wounded in a bomb blast in central Baghdad on Monday...
...bringing the total U.S. deaths in Iraq to 3,980.
And this is what John W. McCain wants to continue for a hundred years.
