Budget Deficit Drops to $250 Billion
AP ^ | October 6, 2006 | ANDREW TAYLOR


Posted on 10/06/2006 12:19:40 PM CDT by West Coast Conservative


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.

"The unidentified former page told the Los Angeles Times Sunday that he was 21 when he and the Florida Republican congressman had sex... [emphasis mine -VA]"

...And a former intern of an even younger age had sex with another disgusting politician; Our beloved B.J. Clinton... Why is it such a big deal today and not then?

What ever is news about homosexuals over the age of 21 having sex? Do not homosexuals have multiple partners anyway (not to mention multiple diseases and shorter life span)? Disgusting!

• In 1983, then-Democratic Rep. Gerry Studds of Massachusetts was caught in a similar situation. In his case, Studds had sex with a male teenage page -- something Foley hasn't been charged with.

Did Studds express contrition? Resign? Quite the contrary. He rejected Congress' censure of him and continued to represent his district until his retirement in 1996.

• In 1989, Rep. Barney Frank, also of Massachusetts, admitted he'd lived with Steve Gobie, a male prostitute who ran a gay sex-for-hire ring out of Frank's apartment. Frank, it was later discovered, used his position to fix 33 parking tickets for Gobie.

What happened to Frank? The House voted 408-18 to reprimand him -- a slap on the wrist. Today he's an honored Democratic member of Congress, much in demand as a speaker and "conscience of the party."

• In 2001, President Clinton, who had his own intern problem, commuted the prison sentence of Illinois Rep. Mel Reynolds, who had sex with a 16-year-old campaign volunteer and pressured her to lie about it. (Reynolds also was convicted of campaign spending violations.)

Well, timing is about right for the "Me too Bandwagon" to pull into town.

I say let them keep coming out with stories like this. The guy was 21 when it happened. It was a consentual affair. No law was broken.

The bigger deal they (the LSM, and democrats) make out of this the more they look like gay bashers.

This is a huge scandal! How dare a congressman have sex with an EX PAGE who was 21! A democrat would never have done that. A democrat is smart enough to make sure they are STIL A PAGE and UNDER 18 in order to have sex with them.

First of all, he was 21 years old.

Secondly, what kind of person brags about something like that? Does he think he will become a contestant on Deal or No Deal?

To admit such a thing says you're either independently wealthy...or independently a complete moron.

Looks like they are getting desperate. IMO this is the kind of piling on that may invigorate voters to turn out in mass next month to keep the Dems from taking back congress or the senate.

Another minor - time for another ABC news report.

ROTLMAO!!!

What's the big deal about that???

That's what was praised to high heaven when it was done in the Oval Office in 1998!??!

Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot that that was NOT sex, because of the meaning what "IS" is!!!
