Just a question here (I'm all for keeping the debt limit at current levels or lowering it) but what is Bush going to do when the money runs out? I get the feeling that we are way over extended here and the little break in the recession will not create enough revenue to get us out.

And don't tell me that everything is in the black, cause I'm not biting.

No, no...you make sense as usual, EBUCK. I agree. My issue is not with raising or lowering the debt limit. I posted this article because of the hypocrisy of the Kansas City Star. They talk day after day after day about spending my tax dollars on liberal programs I abhor. They have no room to call Bush fiscally irresponsible. (there may be some truth to it, but they lost their credibility a long time ago) If Bush had followed all of their advice I'm afraid we'd just be signing our paychecks right over to the government.

What I don't understand is that we are in a war against terrorism and preparing to go to war with Iraq and maybe others but we've got machine shops closing and laying off because the jobs are being sent to China. I would think it would be important to also have the American economy benefit some because we'll be paying the bills.

Easy, just print more money or propose a bill outlawing zeroes. Just think, 1 zero taken off of 6,000,000,000,000 becomes only 600 billion. The debt is easily manageable!
