President [Bush] can use the surplus Mr. Clinton left behind to pay for many of the nation's needs in this time of crisis

Assuming there ever was a surplus (there wasn't), since Congress is Constitutionally mandated to do yearly budgets there is no surplus from year to year. It all goes back into the Treasury and is used (SS payback, theft, interest payment, etc).

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Please show your work.
