I agreed that spending is out of control.
In regard to Bush's tax cuts -
In '04 revenues increased 5.4%
In '05 revenues increased 14.5%
In '06 revenues increased 11.8%
I am sure the '06 numbers are still subject to revision. As I look at the numbers I can not conclude that the tax cuts have been the cause of the deficits during Bush's term. However, I can support orther causes: 1) Recession 2) War on terror (including homeland security issues) 3) Spending
