The Texas Rangers made money when he owned them. Now with Tom Hicks as owner they are losing money ..well thats if you can believe anything major league baseball says about its finances.

So your statement that all his business failed is either a mistake or a lie.. you call it.

there never was a suplus, it was always "projected" the ASSumed that the economy would keep on trucking at the level it was then, stupid mistake from both parties, but hey it was an election year. You can thank the Republican controled congress for the ballanced budgets though

I bet it just burns you leftist up inside that the first ballanced budget our nation had since the 60's happened only after the Republicans won control of the congress.

Truth hurts doesn't it 10bears

Please don't lose the meaning of "surplus"...surplus means they taxed us, the taxpayers, too much. When you take too much money, only makes sense to give it back to the source. If YOU want to pay down the deficit, etc., then that's your perogative, lobby for a separate fund with your local state to set up an account to donate your tax rebate or refund.

Stop using logic Rip, it only confuses 10bears and Weazel. Then again maybe it will sink in to some thick headed dems that their party is moraly, phiscaly and intelectualy bancrupt. I doubt it, but a guy has to have dreams right?

Hey weazel, here's an idea fer ya, why don't you try for the first time in this thread to back up anything you've said as fact? Oh wait, that would be impossible because you're full of crap.
You poor confused leftist you...

Udie it wouldn't matter if Moses came down from the hill and handed you stone tablets listing Dubyas diddly ups, lies, and theft.

The blinders your wearing don't allow you to see the truth, check a few of the links DH posted.

sigh again you come with no proof to back up your weak position. DH's link is a dead link. Talk about me seeing the truth that's funny. My blinders were taken off when I was 22 and saw clinton/gore on MTV, you on the other hand obviously put yours on and kept em there. You are full of toejam and I will no longer debate with you, because you offer nothing but insults and lies then you don't/can't back them up with proof.

loser!

In Aug of 2000 when investers found out Dick Chenny went to the OPEC meeting in April 1999 as a rep of Helliburton calling for a reduction in oil production.. Some investors might pull out. They could see it was a political play designed to make the Clinton adminstration look like it was their fault for the rising fuel prices.

In Oct 2000 during the debates, a lady asked Gov Bush what he planned to do about education. He started out with his usual stump speech but then veered off into why we need a strong defense. His answer didn't make any sense. The conservetive pundants praised Bush's debate. Investers saw that Bush was going to be crowned President no matter what.. Some pulled out.

On Dec 11th 2000 when the Surpreme court declared that George Bush's constutional rights would be violated if he didn't become President... Quite a few investors pulled out.

During the month of Dec and Jan the President elect continued to down-talk the economy. He must know something the investors didn't.. That he was planning a resesion ecomomy, they pulled anything they had left... out.

At least he will bring honor and dignity back to the White House.. The first day on the job Ari reported Vandalism on Air force 1 and the White House office building.. but offered no evidence no photographs. The GAO investigated the matter and found zero evidence..ZERO.

That means they lied about it.. Not a lie to protect their families it was a lie of slander.. The worse kind.

Posts above talk about how wonderful Bush was at Yale..

Question for ya-- Do you know what a legacy student is?

Next question: Would Geo Bush have been admited to Yale without it?

I'm curious what you guys would've said if Al Gore had skipped out on a year of military service to help in a political campaign.. and.. he got a honorable discharge but... they can't find the paperwork?

OK, Econ 101. A surplus may come from sources OTHER THAN TAXES. Investments for instance or reduced costs brought on by PAYING DOWN THE DEBT. A debt that is still very real. Try not to oversimplify to make your point.

(Daschle) In addition, we know that many companies are deferring investments right now. Providing a robust depreciation bonus gives companies an incentive to make investments now, when the economy needs a boost. So today, I'm also proposing that we allow 40 percent bonus depreciation for the first six months and 20 percent for the next six months.

Sounds like incentive to me.

10Bears, theres no sense in pointing out fact or truth to fools like Udie and the rest of the right wing pig pile on this UBB.

They will just scream "liberal-leftist" if you don't agree Dubya is the best thing since bottled beer, or in Udies case the mind altering substances he uses....poor brain dead fool.

Attack the issues, Weazel, not the persons..you just lost any debate you have when you attack individuals and not the issue. Loser
