That's because his argument is absurd. You cannot judge the health of a balance sheet by looking only at one half. In traditional Repub fashion, that's what Spanky does.
The Repub cuts -- yes, the Repub congress made cuts under Clinton (we won't get into the reasons -- but let's just say they were motivated by a lot more than fiscal prudence) -- were nowhere near enough to create a balanced budget, let alone a surplus, had taxes not been raised.
Spanky is in deep denial here. Bush tax cuts are working! The recession was short and shallow! But it was long and deep enough to cause a few trillion of debt! The deficit will be eliminated in, um, well, another 8-12 years of unprecedented growth! The tax cuts and spending increases have nothing to do with it!
And everything in Iraq is going swimmingly! Just as we planned!
