[Cold Heat]

I am not going to deny that your facts, as you call them, are true. What you are leaving out is the effect the Social security Trust has on the budget. This is how the democraps get their numbers. The so called deficit is largely inter governmental IOUs. This is rarely talked about.

Actually, we are in better financial shape now than we have been in the past. The balanced budget goal will be put on the back burner for a while and that is the reality of it. Your numbers mean nothing at the present time. Even if true. I refuse to even argue the point now as it is a moot issue.
