Do you have any idea how much money was in Social Security when Bush took office?

Round number is fine.

<<Republicans have falsely overestimated the budget surplus for the next ten years.There is now a worldwide recession and this along with our own recession will rob the coffers of any new tax revenues.>>

Budget estimates are made up the year before. Too bad Clinton couldn't have been honest about the loss in revenues.

CBO says the surplus will be about $200 billion. That's still a surplus. Wouldn't bother me if it was $0.00. I don't want to loan those idiots in DC one more pennny thanI have to.
