The U.S. recorded a $159 billion budget deficit for the fiscal year that just ended, the first deficit since 1997. Should this change President Bush's plan to extend last year's tax cuts?

I can not fathom how 45% can be infavor of letting the govt keep our money. IDIOTS!

[daylate-dollarshort]

45% want the govt to keep our money?????

Hmmmmmmm.....

It appears to me that the 45% want to continue the Bush tax cuts and let the American people keep their money.

Maybe you want to rethink??? Then again...maybe not...

[<1/1,000,000th%]

No 45.7%. Bummer.

FReeped! Needs some serious freeping though!

[taxcontrol]

This poll needs freeping

Also needs a more appropriate "Yes" answer, say:

Yes - President Bush should also work for even larger tax cuts along with cuts in spending.

[TatieBug]

Needs FREEPING...we need more tax cuts.

What the poll really needs is a "We need bigger tax cuts!" option. That it's not there is not suprising, unfortunately.

Freeped. BTTT.

the first deficit since 1997

A complete bald-faced lie. I refuse to participate in a poll based upon a lie. Clinton's so-called "budget surplus" is pure fiction; it was based on accounting that not even Enron would've tried to pull off.
