Clinton's "surplus" was based on a hyper-inflated economy, much like real estate has just recently been over-valued (based on greed.) His bubble burst (remember Tyco & Enron?), and he left office with the country entering recession...or did you forget that? I vividly remember watching the USS Cole memorial service on TV and watching Hillary Clinton cry. Was she crying for the loss of life or because her husband failed to respond to that loss, which made a tragedy even worse. Clinton (Bill) sure saved a lot of defense money by ignoring embassy bombings, the Cole, etc. etc..... but we all paid in the long run. Penny-wise, pound foolish, as we say. But people like you can still sit around tsk-tsking about budget figures while the REAL men are overseas taking care of business. Frankly, I'm sick and tired of reading about how great the skanky Clintons supposedly are and how superior the phony Obama supposedly is....McCain has true character and that's enough for me.
I have heard this too. And that we still had a 5 trillion dollar national debt when Clinton left.

Correct. Three trillion was rung up during the HW Bush and Reagan presidencies. 1/3 of a trillion during the early Clinton years (he did have to deal with the recession he walked into in full bloom). And what then is your point?
