Administration asks Congress to up debt limit-U.S. will pass $8.2 trillion ceiling around March 20 "Treasury Secretary John Snow notified Congress on Monday that the administration has now taken "all prudent and legal actions," including tapping certain government retirement funds, to keep from hitting the $8.2 trillion national debt limit. Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., said last week that under President Bush the total of the deficits has increased by $3 trillion, a 40 percent increase from where the national debt - the total of previous deficits - stood when Bush took office in January 2001".Boy, life sure is good under these phony, so-called conservatives, isn't it? Oh, I know, the Republicans will hear this news and say what they always say, 'Bush isn't a 'real' conservative'. When one of those phony-conservatives says that to you, your answer to that should be the question, who is a 'real' conservative? Ninety-nine percent of the time they will answer, 'Ronald Reagan', and then you have them right where you want them. Because the only president to accumulate more national debt than George W. Bush, is Ronald Reagan. Reagan was also miserable failure when it came to the nation's budget. Of course, Reagan did his damage to this country in eight years and Junior has done his in only five. Yeah, you got love those conservatives. They are 'social' conservatives in that they love to tell free individuals how to run their private lives but when it comes to fiscal responsibility, there is absolutely nothing 'conservative' about the Republicans in this country. Absolutely nothing! They have nothing to base their argument on.
