The Democratic Party does not believe more strongly in ethanol subsidies than the GOP. No one thinks they're good policy, and everyone votes for them to keep farmers happy. Surely you can find other pork that's shot up in the last few years because it tends to go to GOP districts instead of Dem ones.

Cite, please, for the proposition that Clinton was able to balance the budget only because of some kind of bubble. The real bubble was in the stock market, not in the federal budget. And it would look like less of a bubble if Bush had tried to enact fiscal policies to help the economy instead massive tax cuts for the rich. See Jesse Helms' quote.

Go back and read my sentence. I said "surplus".
The non-sustainable amount of revenues caused by the bubble were used to calculate this non-existent projected "surplus" that Bush is always accused of squandering away. Losing nothing is still nothing.
