Talk about the lies of the right!
"....The Clinton administration reported a surplus of $559 billion in its final four budget years. The audited numbers showed a deficit of $484 billion. In addition, neither of these figures counts the financial deterioration in Social Security or Medicare. Including these retirement programs in the bottom line, as proposed by a board that oversees accounting methods used by the federal government, would show the government running annual deficits of trillions of dollars. ...." http://www.usatoday.com/news/washing...cit-usat_x.htm Pete |

FactCheck.org is a non-partisan organization that examines and refutes the lies or confirms the truths of the Left and the Right. Here's what they determined about the Clinton surplus. Have a nice day :), John |
Wanna bet Clinton opposed it, and Obama will too?
SS makes Iraq look like a cakewalk fiscal wise. Besides, the only way Clinton managed to even pretend to cook the books was the 'peace dividend' (remember that?). Gut the Armed Services, like the USSR was the only threat there ever would be. Pete |
Well, according to the OMB FactCheck is wrong.
Look at row B. If there was a surplus that number would go down. It doesn't. http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget...s/hist07z1.xls Pete |

Lets see our fiscal choices: 1: Cut taxes for the rich and invade a sovereign nation that had nothing to do with 9/11. 2: Cut taxes for the poor and middle class (folks who will actually spend the tax savings) as part of a stimulus package designed to prevent the recessionary economy from sinking into depression. Enact healthcare reform that, but for the effect of lobbyists, would produce more disposable income by making the cost of medical care a smaller part of the economy. Regards, D-ray |
