How do Christian Republicans justify aid to the Taliban?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unk's Wild Wild West : One Thread

I'd previously discussed here the $43 million that the U.S. gave the Taliban to decrease their poppy fields. Since then, the amounts of our tax dollars have increased to the billion dollar level, and I wonder how many Christian Republicans can justify their taxes being spent on such an endeavor.

$43 million? Piffle. That will not shut down one street corner in Ballmer.

Al, do you get to define who is a Christian? Did Christ annoint you to do so? IMO, anyone is a Christian who says they are. Whether or not they are a good Xtian is another question.
