2004 Deficit Set to Hit Record $450 Billion

This is the current text crawler across the bottom of CNN - Wolf Blitzer is interviewing Josh Bolton, WH Budget Director, who is trying in vain to argue that we shouldn't stop giving big tax breaks to Americans making more then $200K and more a year (as per Kerry's speech).

Not an altogether bad job by Blitzer, for once.

3. Not counting the 200 billion from Social Security

This is part of the "conservative" agenda... in a negative sort of way. Conserving your tax dollars.... for someone else... or some other corporate interest. Makes sense to me.... in a negative sort of way. Am I being positive enough?
