A great idea from Gene Weingarten's online chat

Anonymous: Since the TV networks are putting on a big telethon to raise money for Katrina relief, why not simply switch the $5-6 billion a month we're spending on the war in Iraq to Katrina relief, and then hold a telethon to raise money for the war? This would be a great opportunity for Bush to demonstrate the support for the war that he claims.
