The $87 billion. Does the gentleman remember that many of us on this side actually voted against authorizing the President to launch this intervention because we did not believe the evidence for a variety of different reasons that he presented to us and to the American people, but we did understand an obligation to help Iraq get back on its feet? Does the gentleman remember the debate about whether it would be loans, or whether we would just simply give the money away, give the taxpayer dollars away?
