Hmm
Check out the 18th paragraph of Charles Babington's article in tomorrow's issue of The Washington Post:
Under Bush's proposal for individual accounts, the national debt would more than triple, from about 40 percent of the economy, or gross domestic product, to 150 percent of GDP by 2072. "That does not sound like something the Democrats would sign on to," the aide said Hatch remarked. [emphasis added]Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT) thinks that tripling the national debt does not sound like something the Democrats would sign on to. This, of course, begs the question: why would the Republicans sign on to a plan that increases the debt by a factor of three? Which party, exactly, believes in fiscal sanity and which one hopes to bankrupt the country? Take it from no less a conservative than Orrin Hatch that if you want a balanced budget, don't turn to the Grand Old Party.
