The worst part is that the Prez said this was " bothersome".....WHAT???

Geez...Bush started with "0" deficit...and now we're @ these numbers....just think what he could spend as a teenage girl!!!

I know you're gonna jump on me and say " it's the war stupid"....but that's not the total problem with the deficit...and you know it.

Trade deficits almost tripled from 1992 to 1997. We have had trade deficits since 1984.

You might need to get your facts straight!

Interesting that one man could be so ALL-POWERFUL.
