If this is what you are talking about - get your facts straight. He did not SAY that everyone should pay $30,000.

It is a budget matter.

I can think of alot of liberal-spending issues that could be cut out just as well as the war matters to lower the budget.
Thanks for posting the FACTS. Maybe some other people should look up the facts before starting a Bush bashing thread...

WOW, I'm Impressed you agree that these are the facts....Your starting to come around after all.

"That's trillion with a T, or about $30,000 for every man, woman and child in the United States, marking the fourth time that the so-called debt cap has been hiked since George W. Bush became President in 2001."

"The Republicans' addiction to debt leaves conservative economists and policy experts in despair."

"Somebody needs to stand up and say, 'Stop me before I spend again,' " said Pat Toomey, a former Republican member of Congress who now runs the conservative Club for Growth, a group that supports small-government candidates."

"The Democrats, who voted against the increase in the debt cap, insisted it wasn't their fault. "We are plunging deeper and deeper into debt and it is increasingly financed by foreigners," said Senator Ken Conrad of North Dakota, the leading Democrat on the Senate's budget committee."

"Jim Horney, a senior fellow at the left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, said things were going just fine under Bill Clinton, who ran up four years of budget surpluses before Mr. Bush decided to slash taxes, especially on the wealthy. "

The budget increased by 781 billion to 9 trillion dollars, which is equivalent to saying that every U.S. person including you SkipN will be paying approximately $3,000 to fuel the war including all newborns living in poverty.

Umm no, what tattoo bob was saying was that Bush wanted every American to pay $30,000! Thats NOT what Bush said. The facts i'm referring to are what bush did and did not say.Where TB came up with that is beyond me....

The other thing I read in the Herald was they a couple of weeks ago
was the retirement age was going up to 85 yrs. old
Is this his big SS plan, Because as far I heard he was giving our
money back not making us work longer and pay more.

About time you realized it.... Well, NBC is not as bad as MSNBC. Keith Olbermann is as liberal as they get...Can he be any more bias? Everyday he has a new kooky consipiracy theory. But then again thats why his ratings suck ass!
