    You guys should hire Paul Martin. He got us to a balanced budget and paid down 20% of our deficit. He did it through tough decisions, but he was not afraid to make the tough ones.

    Unfortunately, I do not think the taxpayers or the politicians on either side are willing to make tough decisions. Some want cuts to spending, some want increase taxation. No one is willing to do both.

    Oh, and you can apply that to Bush, Bush, Carter, Reagan, Nixon, Ford... I will give Obama a few years to see if he reverses this. Clinton actually did balance the books and pay down debt.

    and for the video, Obama has given numbers that have argued completely against it. He has talked about cutting down the deficits in his latter years. So this 170mph seems like a lie.
