Default Scooter Libby: "Cheney made me do it!"

There will never be "enough" revenues for people who
always want the government to spend more.



The last 2-3 Clinton years disprove _that_ notion.


Your personal share of the national debt
is now around $27,000.
When Bush took office, it was about $16,000.
Have Dick and Dubya's tax cuts saved _you_ $11K ?


My net worth is more than 3 times as high as it was in 2001,
and that's a gain of much more than $11,000. I have no way
of knowing how much of that results from the tax cuts.



Karl Rove will tell you that practically _all_ your net worth increase was
due to the tax cuts. But you're not dumb enough to believe him, are you?


If you have any kids, each of _their_ shares of the debt
also went up $11K, by the way.
How big were _their_ tax cuts?


They're both doing much better than they were in 2001.



I am sincerely glad for them, but they're each doing $11K less well than
they think they are.
