Bush's new 'budget'

[miko2d]

Frogm4n: yes clinton did balance the budget.

 He didn't. It was a trick of accounting.
 The SSA should not have been a part of the budget.

 Also, he got a huge boost by confiscating people's property instead of taking part of the current income as income taxes should - due to the accounting rules that incorrectly treat capital gain as income.

If we actually paid attention to the warning signs; sept 11 never would have happened under the previous budget. Most of what is being done is just a dog and poney show to make us feel better. The crap we are spending on now is not worth the money or even worthwhile. And why do we need a anti missile shield that still dosnt work?
Having more fbi agents investigateing clintons pants then following known terrorists as they travel the us seemed to not have helped either.

OMG how soon we forget.  The "previous budget" had nothing to do with lax in security leading up to 9/11.  

what did was the "previous budget" of the "previous administration" passed a law stating all CIA/intell informants had to be nice well-rounded law abiding good people with no criminal record.  This created a HUGE hole in human intel.

if you think the FBI is just there to investigate clinton you are ignorant.  You are the same type of people that complain about lack of security and cry about the patriot act and those poor oppressed heros imprisoned in Guantonamo Bay.

SHACK!

This discussion is not about the truth...it's political and anyone who states the truth LDV will deal with them in his usual fashion.

Democrats are great....when polled, they only care about which candidate is actually electable, not the one who is the most capable....I point to exit polls specific to Edwards and Kerry...Kerry is more likely to beat Bush, but Edwards is more popular.

Clinton balanced dit....no one man can be blamed or exalted for fiscal policy and the economy...it simply doesn't work that way in reality....politics, that's entirely different matter.

Sounds like every country is at war if US is.. defensive wise, disregarding their own offensives.


...and has been for a good while.
