Except we've taken in more money...oh wait, I already told you that in the THIRD sentance so shut the f*ck up and read.

When more money is getting spent, and producitivity is up, more gets TAXED and government takes in MORE revenue.

Deficit is because of increased spending; not reduced funding.

Laffer curve: taxation slows productivity. The maximum benefit the government can get out of an economy, therefore, is not determined by a straight line, but an upside down U.

By the way, NewsWeek also has Bush up with a double-digit lead (about the same results). Rasmussen shows Bush has a 53% approval rating among voters, and that's including a fluke sample for Kerry (holiday weekened).

When the next Gallup poll comes out (better than anyone else), I expect Bush to have a 5-6 point lead. Eleven sounds a bit high, though if it does show that, I'll be happy.
