Budget: revenues: $2.119 trillion
expenditures: $2.466 trillion

1. We still had the debt, but for a brief, 9-month stint, the *deficit* was erased.
2. However, the overall deficit spending rate for the Clinton years was 2.1% of GDP, compared with only 1.9% for Bush, so even the deficit arguments need to be reviewed in light of current facts.

Especially since it was reagan policies years ealier that resulted in CLinton economic good times.
People forget that Reagans policies were intended for 10-15 years later...and that most economic changes take years to be effective.

You are absolutely right. The national debt was still ridiculously high. At least now the Dow is at an all time high.

There you go, spouting truth again! We are not interested in truth, cause it makes us feel bad. We want to feel good! And daddy Bill and momma Hilary are good!

Laugh it up.
p.s. Bin Laden is not in Iraq; if he were, and if he had a teenage son, Im sure that Foley & co. would be "on the case". I "feel" so much "safer" now.

They would have to be able to actually DO math, rather than just poll people about their "feelings..."
