Let me guess, THIS did not come up even one time either on any of the Sunday Shows NOR will it on any of the Talk Radio shows except maybe Rush's. Maybe the Talking Heads on the Right should be talking about things like this intead of being Junk Media Lite.

The federal budget estimate for the fiscal year just completed dropped to $250 billion, congressional estimators said Friday, as the economy continues to fuel impressive tax revenues.
The Congressional Budget Office's latest estimate is $10 billion below CBO predictions issued in August and well below a July White House prediction of $296 billion.
The improving deficit picture _ Bush predicted a $423 billion deficit in his February budget _ has been driven by better-than-expected tax receipts, especially from corporate profits, CBO said.
