Did you notice, NATIONAL DEBT isnt a priority?

[JohnnyMarzetti]

Has anyone visited www.whitehouse.gov? They list all the issues that they want to fix, but national debt isnt one of them. and they want to privitize social security which will run it into the ground in 15 years.

I don't think the national debt is really an issue for many Republicans, who feel that it's better to run future generations into a $7,000,000,000,000 debt than anger voters with remotely higher taxes. Sept. 11 is no longer an excuse to me. This is the only war in American history during which we've received tax breaks.

Statistic: Every working American would have to contribute about $35,000 in order to immediatly cancel the national debt.

Statistic: At over seven trillion dollars, the national debt would be growing by 3.5 billion a year even at the ridiculusly low .5% interest rate.

of course not...a large deficit is great for them because then theres no money to fund social programs

This sure isn't your dad's Republican Party that's for sure. I've contended for sometime that conservatism in the Party is at best on life support. The Republican Party has been taken over by Dominionists and NeoCons, and most party loyalists are in complete denial. I believe that the Party would fracture if Hastert, Delay, and Lott didn't have the rest of their Senate and Congressional counterparts by the balls. The Neocons can never lose control of the W.H. and the Senate or House of Reps. It was foolish for anyone (including myself) to think that J.K. ever had a serious chance of winning.
