now, i do try to stay away from partisan issues, as i am not american and really dont support either of their candidates, something has struck me as very funny during the debates

Bush says that the recession started 6 months before he took office.

Guess why?

Because of the Floridia fiasco. For that time, the nation was very unstable, your dollar was almost equal to the Canadian for a short time, and that hurts the economy and the market.

So, any of you conspiracy theorists who have *PROOF* that Bush rigged the election, there is your cause for the defecit.

America's budget deficit is based on government spending, and the government did not spend a dime on the Florida fiasco - that came out of the taxpayers pockets.

i should have claimed that this was the cause of the poor economy that assisted in the creation of the defecit 6 month prior to bush taking office.
