There's an excellent article in the Las Vegas Sun comparing the cost of this war to wars of the past. It can be found here.
There's an excellent follow-up to this article at Zogby Blog that compares the costs of past major American wars, updated into 2003 dollars to allow a comparison with today's expenditures. Don't miss it here.
And because I just can't resist this...
Cost of fighting the war in Iraq - 159 billion, cost of waiting for the terrorists to come to the USA, priceless.
