It might be close. Let's see if the bailout(s) hit the balance sheet before his term ends, lol. 203 billion hit the books the day after the fiscal year ended, and that had nothing to do with the bailout(s).

Palin just promised in Virginia to balance the Federal Budget by the end of her first term with McCain.

Maybe Hockey Moms command a huge premium

OK...folks...I have an off-the-wall idea...now listen carefully.

In a selfless act of serving her country...what if Vice President Palin offered herself to wealthy world leaders for, say, $100 billion for two hours and the proceeds were used to pay down the national debt? If she did it 100 times then the national debt could be eliminated?

Good idea? Bad idea? If she offered to server America in that way, would she get your vote?

Dubya and the National Debt Clock: Mission Accomplished

17x11 600dpi (30mb+) available. Resizing or resampling a 'slam dunk'. PM with your pleasure :p

I'm too tired to be witty this evening - thought about a ""Thank you, President Hoover" on the bottom.
