Read the facts, and weep.. US public debt rose by 40% during the Clinton administration from $4 Trillion to $5.6 Trillion:

So much for the "surplus" theory you spew...

Next thing you'll try to convince of is that we need a "social security lockbox".. LOL!!

Now mind you, the deficit HAS grown at a faster pace during the Bush administration. However, we're a country at war, having suffered a Trillion dollar economic hit from 9/11.

Clinton had the "peace dividend" and relatively no war (unless you call Bosnia a war) as well as surging tax revenues from the bustling US stock market.
