Jim Pritchett, (Aug 23, 92), thinks our economic problems can be blamed 
on the Democratics that controlled Congress for 40-50 years.  BULL!
For 6 years Reagan had control of the Senatre and he had LOTS of 'boll 
weevil" democrats to help.  It is his plan, Reaganomics theat was 
implemented and is destroying us.  
  Just after Bush's Official State of the Union adress, Bush put forth 
his officail Proposed Official Budget, (Houston Post January 30, 1992)
This budget was $1.52 Trillion dollars.  3 Day later, Richard Darman of 
the OMB officially estimated that this would give us a deficit of $399 
billion dollars for fiscal 1993.  The Official figure for '92 was $268 
billion!  HERE is spend, spend, spend spend.
  Bush's $399 billion deficit is the biggest yearly deficit in all of 
human civilzation!  Bush recommmended adding $131 Billion worth of defict 
to our spending for 1993.
  That is $524 for every man, women, and child in the USA!  $524!
The $399 billion deficit Bush wants is approximately $1600 for each 
American.  And less than 3 months later this same crature Bush, hopped on 
the balanced budget amendment bandwagon, yowling and howling that that 
mean old congress wouldn't stop spending!
  REmember, this was Bush's budget, made by him and his aides and cronys 
after locking themselves away in the WhiteHouse all December and January!
Bush did this.  Not Congress at large, not the Democrats, not the 
liberals, and definitely not Bill Clinton.  $399 billion dollars deficit!
Spend, spend, spend spend.  Here was Bush's real plan to spark up the 
economy.  Dump $131 billion dollars worth of hot checks on the U.S.A. so 
that this would hopefully pick things up for One More Election.  And how 
the Hell does the Ciongress get ALL the blame after 12 years of this 
crap?  Actually, the way "Congress" is used in foolish post like 
Pritchett's it is used to mean, Democratic and Liberal.  Which is totally 
untrue.  These are the only people who have fought this crap.  The bad 
thing about this stuff is no bit of hypocrisy, no obvious lie, no amount 
of disaster seems to convince the America Voter as a whole that things 
must change.  If Bush can offer up the Biggest damned deficit in all of 
human history without America saying, "NO! GET OUT OF THE WHITEHOUSE YOU 
IDIOT!", then Bush can do what ever the hell he wants to do.
Why not deficits of $599 billion or $1 trillion or ....    He can do 
anything he bloody wants and millions of Republicans will merely blame 
Congress.  Congress ain't the whole problem.  Bush, the Republican party, 
and Republican voters who can be fooled with simple rhetorical attacks 
are what will drag America down in the end.
$399 billion dollars in deficits, people!
Has there ever been a big spender like Bush in all of history?  No.
And you will pay the tax for this sonner or later.  Better write you 
Senators and Congresman befor October 1st when the budget for 1993 is 
due.  Tell them to say no to Bush's amazing deficits!
Especially you republicans out there!  Wake up stupid!
