Well, I can't speak for Democrats since I'm not one, but Congress certainly deserves some of the blame. With that in mind, it's curious how Democrats got stuck with the "tax and spend" label when it should instead be "cut taxes and spend."

Thanks for the bone

just wish you were a Dem so I could quit waiting for them to admit it.

BTW I agree with your post just didn't want to quote all of it.
For sure Raygun (thanks weaz that's a funny name) set the agenda. BUT if, and yes it's a freaking huge if, congress had controlled itself maybe the budget could have come in ballanced? or not as bloated. I know Ron still signed them which is why I'm willing to give him part of the blame. I guess I am nieve, I still to this day expect elected officials to actualy do what we send them there to do. God only knows how I got that stupid idea in my head.
That said, big huge freakingly large
S![/i] to President Bush. So far as I can tell, he's done everything he said he would durring the campaign. He hasn't gotten it all through, but considering that he only had 49.99999999999999999% of the vote I think he's done a remarkable job of getting his agenda through a divided congress (thanks jeffords you salamander). Nice to have somebody with honor in there for a change.
