Default Ignoring that neither

Clinton nor Bush have anything to do with it really. If you are President for long enough you will hit both a recession and a boom. Big whoop. Of course the President will take credit, which is perfectly fine considering he'll get the blame. The fact neither is true I guess doesn't matter. The funny part? If the debt keeps rising we will eventually end up with a HUGE recession. And who will get the blame? The President at the time (Donkey or Elephant). Who will really be at fault? W (among others). Wierd, no?

Default Three entities, in order:

1. The President. He both submits the budget and has to sign it. The buck stops there.
2. Congress. They get the budget, add more spending, and send it back for signature.
3. The People. We elect the people running the debt up.

Default Bronco

I noticed you like to attack people for their spelling. I do know how to spell, although sometimes I'm careless. Are you a teacher? I'm sure I can find mistakes you have made if I would take the time to do so. By the way, I also notice you checked out "flip flopped". What, no comment?
Anyway I wasn't asking your opinion, I was asking Stekim's.
