am talking about their ads comparing Bush to Hitler That one I am somewhat familiar with. It was not a MoveOn ad, it was merely a submission by an independant to become an ad, and was both rejected and denounced. The only official ad featuring Hitler came from the Bush camp. it seems like it would pretty hard for Bush or anyone else to determine what really happened without actually being there. You make it sound like nobody can know anything. That is a nylistic viewpoint. Of course the evidence can be weighed and it doesn't require reading every since document from the DOD. It is merely a matter of looking at the proffered evidence and seeing which ones conflict and which don't. TP

"My Dad's grandchildren, my kids, were supposed to be paying the Reagan deficit. That got paid off in the 90's. But, if your point is that it is legitimate ad. Sure, it's a legitimate ad." HUH!!! It never got paid off in the 90's In the 90's we had a current year surplus (more money coming in then going out for couple of years) we have yet to actually pay down our debt. Check it out since 1987 it was 2.3 trillion now 7.4 trillion. Right now almost 25% yes 1/4 of the budget just goes to pay interest on the debt. And it will only get worse what happens when interest rates rise? Why this isn't huge issue in the election is beyond me. Your kids and grand kids will pay and pay dearly, if not you in the near future.... The deficit makes me sick.... publicdebt.treas.gov
