Inode you just wasted your time. I guarantee Koan will repeat his lie again. This is not the first time he has made that false claim and that it has been refuted. He is hopeless. lj

i-node, Thank you for posting that. Many years ago I tried to confront the Clinton surplus lie by showing that there was NO YEAR - NO YEAR - that the federal debt declined during the Clinton era. BTW - they ALWAYS forget that the bursting of the internet stock bubble ended any prospect of a Clinton balanced budget. However, the loons will tell you there were surpluses for as far as the eye can see. Loony, loony, loony - and worse - dishonest, dishonest, dishonest. Bob

>> We dems almost had the debt paid off.

Right, genius. Here is the national debt by year. Perhaps you can tell us exactly which year "you dems" paid any of it off.
