Boy, do I miss Clinton. Any president who lets the government operate "in the red" for 4 years straight rocks. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

And, before you guys all jump up and down screaming "it isn't just the President who did it," fine to a large extent you are right. But, let's remember it *is* the president who proposes the budget, estimates the needs of every agency, and, as Bush has shown us (and as Clinton showed us during the gov't shutdown in mid-90's), has HUGE influence.
