"Nope. We had deficit spending every year of the Bush Administration. So, we NEVER had greater revenue than outlays."

I was saying that your numbers for revenue and the budget have been wild guesses. You know that's right. And 2001 under Bush was a budget surplus, FYI.

Clinton claimed a “surplus” too. Didn’t actually happen. The “surplus” was generated by borrowing from Social Security.
