Do you understand the difference between the words DEFICIT and DEBT?
And cutting the deficit in half is a funny statement. Clinton balanced the budget.
Bush came along and started racking up a HUGE debt.
Clinton had a good boat on the water, and then Bush took over.
Bush cute HUGE holes into the boat, and then managed to shore up the damage so that only about half of the water was coming in that was previously coming in.
Praise for cutting down the deficit needs to be accompanied by the realization that he CREATED the huge damn thing in the first place. Quote: |

But on the flip side, what's to stop public perception from focusing on what it REALLY wants to focus on. The Iraq War...
It's like a cheating husband trying to tell his wife that he's still a good father to the kids. The wife is still going to be focusing on the infidelity, and it will be a hard sell to shift the focus.
And it's very probable that the public would just get pissed off at the Republicans for dodging the Iraq issue and harping on the economy. Quote: |

Tell me alias. Do you ever have anything nice to say about liberals? No. Complain, complain, complain...
You are EXACTLY what you are complaining about.
