It'll Be More Like Five Trillion!

Pentagon drone doubts the Iraq War will cost three trillion.

'That number “seems way out of the ballpark to me,” said Pentagon spokesman Geoff Morrell. But, he told reporters, “I’m not an accountant. I’m not an economist. And I think that those who are have questioned the methodology of this particular survey.”'

Well, not the economists who wrote it! And was it really a "survey"?! That would seem to be a very odd way to estimate the cost of a war.

And why is this even news? The administration just came out and essentially said, "I know you are, but what am I?" Who are these "those who are" folks?
