In 2005, the Department of Defense had about 27,000 vehicles in Iraq, and every one of them had poor gas mileage.

The U.S. Army burned 12 times more fuel per soldier in Iraq than it did in France in 1944 -- nine gallons of fuel per soldier per day in 2004. Another problem is that truck fuel tankers are easy to identify and destroy by enemy guerrillas.

I could have defended a lot better. It was poor defense on my part.

We've played very good defense all year and I don't think tonight that we played poor defense, Munster just shot the ball so well.

the poor, beleaguered people of Iraq are not better off.

We're spending $6 billion to $7 billion a month in Iraq -- that's not efficient spending of defense money.
