Sen. Lindsey Graham just called Americas $1 billion a day military operations in Iran a great investment for America.
During this weeks edition of Fox News Sunday Morning Futures, host Maria Bartiromo asked the South Carolina senator to justify the staggering cost of the conflict, which the Pentagon is planning to ask for billions more to fund and has sent oil prices soaring.
Best money ever spent, he said. Whats it worth to America to take down a religious Nazi regime whos trying to build a nuclear weapon to deliver to America? Thats a really good investment.
Calling it imperative that Iran never go nuclear, Graham said, What would it cost America if Iran had 11 nuclear bombs to threaten us? They would to hold us hostage.

Republicans reveal their true selves because it's all about money.
War- unlimited resources.
Fellow human beings- as little resources as possible.
