Now, when we have a full blown crisis on our hands, you want to pretend you are a fiscal conservative. Apparently, you don't know the difference in "deficit" and "debt". Accounting wasn't your thing, was it? You also have apparently forgotten that the very HEART of our economy was destroyed on 9/11/2001. I don't approve of Bush's deficit spending, but it is NOTHING compared with this goof we've elected now. It is a national tragedy.
