| Re: Bush lowers deficit over a billion dollars
The annual White House midyear budget report projects that this year's deficit will drop to $333 billion, $79 billion below last year's record red ink and almost $100 billion less than earlier estimates. LOL! Grasping at straws?? I guess a 333 billion deficit is better than a 433 billion deficit... |

| Re: Bush lowers deficit over a billion dollars
Oops...recent report card. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] The deficit picture remains worse than it was when Bush took office seven years ago. Then, both White House and congressional forecasters projected cumulative surpluses of $5.6 trillion over the subsequent decade. But a revenue bubble burst, a recession and the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks adversely affected the books. Several rounds of tax cuts, including Bush's signature $1.35 trillion 2001 tax cut, also contributed to the return to deficits in 2002 after four years of budget surpluses. The national debt has risen to $9.2 trillion. "This guy will come close to doubling the debt of the country during his period of presidency," Conrad said.

No doubt the next President gets a whole bunch of problems. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] The Bush administration projects this year's deficit will rise to a near-record $410 billion, in part because of the stimulus plan, after a $162.8 billion gap last year.
