The IDIOT Bush is going to cut the deficit HE created in half
and the repukes are bragging about it??? :dunce:

When Bushit took office we had a small trade deficit and a 200 billion budget surplus. Now we have a 420 billion-dollar budget deficit and a 620 billion-dollar trade deficit. That's over ONE TRILLION DOLLARS a year in deficits added since HE took office.

What's he gonna' do about the trade deficit? Force CAFTA and FTAA down our throats for even BIGGER trade deficits. Oh, he will tell the usual lies and say we have to have these agreements to open up these markets to American-Made goods. George, just what are these people making $2.00 an hour going to buy from us - used toilet paper?

5. raise taxes - reduce deficit
Clinton did to fix the Reagan/Bush financial fiasco with the blessing of many Americans that had hit bottom. Remember all the bank and S&L failures that we the people had to pay back in taxes? How quickly people forget.
