"Looks like Canadians are the real fiscal conservatives, while the US government (under both Republican and Democratic administrations and Congresses) are the ones who are fiscally irresponsible."


                     Carol - I would agree that the Canadians act a lot more like grownups than the Americans do, but Bill Clinton was reasonably fiscally responsible.
                     His one big mistake was Kosovo, in my opinoin, and we are paying for that in Georgia now.
