Geesh, you have real reading comprehension issues. Did I say that we had a surplus? I said that the Prescription Plan alone would rule out the chance of us every running a surplus again. Where did I say that we had one right before Bush took office?
The whole point of electing a conservatives is to push for a smaller more fiscally responsible government. With this type of government, we could run surpluses and actually give rebates rather than deficit spend and just push the tax increases back a few years.
There are more things in life than just Roe v Wade.
"Plan alone would rule out the chance of us every running a surplus again"
You did say "again"
By using the word "again".
To you maybe, but to many, it's the one issue that drives them.
