Oh, for crying out loud.  That's the biggest pile of crap I've run across in a
long time.  Raygun has signed every appropriations and spending bill passed by
Congress.  And half of Congress is controlled by the Republicans.  What you
have failed ot notice is that Ronnie talks big and carries a small stick.  His
budgets haven't cut squat.  It's just a matter of taking money from social
spending and putting it in defense.  I don't want to argue about whether that's
a good thing or not, but that's what he's done.  Slap a nice big tax cut on top
of all that, and you get a deficit increase.  Big surprise.

By the way, who's this Democrates you mention.  Some liberal Greek scholar?
