Ask Hillary and the Dems. They're the ones who spent it.

2 Trillion it borrowed from the Social Security Trust Fund There is no SS Trust fund. Never was, it is simply part of the budget. This is simply a ploy by Democrats to make it look bad when another budget item, especially for the Defence Department, is increased. They try to claim that this is stealing from SS. Sometimes Republicans use the same ploy to promote their own SS strategy. Thus, it is almost universally accepted as fact.

'Gay question' general linked to Clinton By: Kenneth P. Vogel Nov 28, 2007 11:53 PM EST The retired general who asked about gays and lesbians serving in the military at the CNN/YouTube Republican debate on Wednesday is a co-chairman of Hillary Rodham Clinton's National Military Veterans group. Retired Brig. Gen. Keith H. Kerr was named a co-chairman of the group this month, according to a campaign press release. He was also active in John F. Kerry's 2004 campaign for president. Kerr asked candidates “why you think that American men and women in uniform are not professional enough to serve with gays and lesbians.” After the debate, former Education Secretary Bill Bennett said on a CNN panel that he was being told Kerr was involved with the Democratic presidential campaign of Clinton, a New York senator. CNN anchor Anderson Cooper, who moderated the debate and the panel, said that if that was the case, CNN should have identified Kerr as such. David Bohrman, a CNN senior vice president and executive producer of the debate, later said: "We regret this and apologize to the Republican candidates. We never would have used the general's question had we known that he was connected to any presidential candidate." Kerr told CNN that he had not done work for the Clinton campaign, and CNN verified before the debate that he had not contributed money to any candidate, the broadcaster said in a blog post after the debate. Kerr told CNN he is a member of the Log Cabin Republicans and was representing no one other than himself, CNN said. On Thursday, Clinton campaign spokesman Phil Singer said the retired general "is not a campaign employee and was not acting on behalf of the campaign." A Nov. 11 press release retrieved from the website of the nonpartisan magazine Campaigns & Elections lists Kerr as one of nearly 50 co-chairs of “Veterans and Military Retirees for Hillary." Clinton’s campaign did not respond to an e-mail asking about Kerr’s role in her campaign or whether he was acting on behalf of the campaign. Kerr also was on Kerry’s National Veterans Steering Committee, according to a campaign press release retrieved from the website of George Washington University. politico.com So I guess you liked all the questions that were planted from Hillary, eh?
