Basskisser,
I am totally lost. Are you saying that when Bush became President, that
there was no National Debt, the fact that the budget was balanced is
proof
that Clinton had eliminated the national debt?
Apparently you ARE lost......you can't seem to comprehend plain
English. Go back and read it again...S L O W L Y, you just may get it!
b'asskisser, I am buying my house. I will be in debt to the mortgage
holder for
about another six years. That is the *only* long term (i.e. more than a
month)
debt I have. I make a household budget every year. The payments on the
debt are
part of my budget. At the end of the year, I will break even, have a
surplus, or
have a deficit. If I have a surplus, it means I took in more money than I
had
planned to take in, or I spent less on expenses than I thought I would. If
I
have a deficit, it means I took in less than I expected, or I spent more
than I
thought I would.
Notice that in none of these cases is my *debt* paid off.
Wouldn't it be easier to just admit you made a boo-boo than keep digging
yourself deeper?

Not for him....he must be related to Dan Rather...perhaps 1st cousins mated
and had birth to the 2 of them.
