Surplus?
What surplus? The national debt INCREASED each year. Hint: that means
there was no surplus.
The Dems were able to
fool people like you into thinking there was a surplus by spending the money that was collected for Social Security on other things.
Please don't tell me you fell for it.

What you
really mean is that after Pelosi and Reid took over Congress (you know, Congress... the government entity that
actually spends the money), the deficit exploded.

You'll have to explain
why Obama named
the primary architect of that Wall Street bailout his Treasury Secretary.
We'll anxiously await your explanation...
"President-elect Barack Obama has selected New York Federal Reserve Bank President Timothy F. Geithner as Treasury secretary, handing the post to a primary architect of the Bush administration's response to the financial crisis, according to Democratic and industry officials yesterday."
