After reading the title I'm somewhat relieved. I thought that Mr. Bush had sold missile technology to the Chinese or something equally as traitorous.
I would think the "War on Terror" or "the Oil War" whichever you prefer is having a huge impact on the budget deficit. It seems every time we get into a skirmish the budget deficit goes bonkers. We also had a tremendous debt after wwII, Korea and Vietnam so I guess this isn't much difference other than the numbers are inflated to reflect todays dollars.
Pan, what would you propose we cut to decrease the deficit? Yes it's out of control but noone on either side of the aisle wants their cash cow cut. Neither side wants to stop the flow of illegal immigrants that are sucking the life blood out of us, cheap labor is to important to big business. Hell you can go on and on about what plagues this country but neither side is willing to step up, bite the bullet and fix the problems. Both sides know they are doing a terrible job that's why laws are enacted to protect themselves and their positions from a third party. When are we as taxpayers and voters going to say enough is enough?
This just isn't a Republican or Democrat problem, this is a Government problem but we continue year in and year out to reelect the same idiots, so who or what is really to blame?
