Bush's Budget Director, Joshua Bolten, told reporters that he expects that the White House will request another $70 billion this year for Iraq. "This is a very expensive proposition," the former Goldman Sachs executive said of the wars. But the true number may well be higher because estimating costs of the Iraq War have been notoriously unreliable; back in 2003, the Administration thought Iraqi oil revenues would cover much of the wartime spending...
