I am doing an assignment for my Media Studies course. We have to make a parady commercial that has some political viewpoint or agenda. I have decided to use the "for everything else there is mastercard" type commercial. Here is what I have as my idea so far...

I want to list items that cost money pertaining to war, whether it be how much an m16 costs or boots and BDUs etc... (I dont know the prices any help would be appreciated)

As the final lines I want it to be...

"Finding out there was no purpose to the war in Iraq when no WMDs were found: Priceless" (reword it maybe? to sound better, once again any help is appreciated)

"There are some things money can't buy, for everything else there is the U.S. tax payer."

Well, if you decide to help me I am in your debt. Thanks

I'm sure you could use google to find the cost of everything you need. Of course, I would flip it around and say "Genocidal maniac dictaor removed from power: Priceless"

Why the cliché?

o I know I could find out factual stuff
I was just wondering if you any of you could help word together what I want to get across. I'm not asking u you do my hw for me lol but in a way I am. I just want it sound smart with satire (as massassi is infamously known for).

Because echo my media class is full of jocks and ditzy girls and they really are not web savvy and my idea is pretty much new to all of them lol.

Average cost of UH-60 Blackhawk (you know, those helicopters that kept getting shot down?): ~$6 million.

Cost of bare M-16A2: $586

Cost of JDAM kit: $20,000

I'd leave out the "no purpose" part. That really gets on my nerves. I'm anti-war, sure, but I'll agree that getting rid of Sadamm was a good thing, even if it was just to help the people there.

So maybe something like "Finding out that the President misinformed the public about Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq? Priceless."

If it was me i'd do:

"A lifetimes supply of oil for your country: Priceless."
