Aw, Keerist, Dickey. You don't know much about trends, in graphs, do you? Here's what your lovely graph shows. Clinton REVERSED the trend toward deficit spending into a deeper hole and Bush then reversed Clinton's trend, and dragged the nation into the depest hole yet. Talk about not alowing the glimmers of improvement to take root! Bush's record is to have taken the highest positive turn we've ever seen fiscally and turn it into the deepest pit, and then crawl half way out. But he hasn't even gotten back to the solvency left by his father, let alone Clinton's positive accomplishment. If the trend defined by the graph as shown were to continue, we would rollercoaster into complete insolvency by 2012, but fortunately, Bush wn't have his hand on the till or the tiller by then. So there's a chance someone will turn it around. But don't pretend your boy is pulling us out of a hole that he himself created.
