"...this is what I get for trying to post with a squirming baby on my lap."
Well, that fact alone will endear you to many, many Freepers. We LOVE babies, and don't believe that they should be used for 'spare parts.' :)
Save this thread for future reference for that baby. ;*)
I hope you'll forgive me the indulgence of posting a serious reply. It might be so that the deficit is decreasing right now, but Bush's entitlement expansions, e.g. senior prescription drug benefit in medicare, are huge and will increasingly hit the bottom line in years to come. I think last year is a blip compared to those, so the celebration by R's, and the silence of D's, in light of the budget news, might be over soon anyway.
