I had the same argument with a lady (I use that term loosely, toothless wonder would be more accurate) and she gave me the same BS line of "Bill Clinton got rid of the national debt..." Blah blah blah. I told her she was full of it and that she obviously didn't know anything and she only pulls these stats out of thin air and from liberal media. That very night Barack Obama said that the national debt was still existent during Clinton's reign. I laughed at her.
On a different note, hope everybody is enjoying the gas prices being under $2 right now. Obama just said that he plans on undoing everything that was set up for off shore drilling. Now for those of you who are "we won't see that gas for 10 years" preaching people let me explain to you how gas prices work. Supply and demand. Only with gas, this is projected 10 years from now. The people that set the prices project how much gas there will be 10 years from today and how much demand there will be and then they set the price. So no, we won't see that gas for 10 years but we'd see the effects of the drilling right now. I don't think that we can drill out of the problem, but I think we should still drill and get it. We'll come up with a better energy plan than using gas. I think I'm going to get a natural gas powered vehicle.
