Letter to the editor:

Bush, GOP culpable in nation’s finances

Sometimes I wonder what my fellow Americans are thinking. This week the Bush administration announced we will have a budget deficit of $482 billion, the largest in our history.

The national debt under President Bush is soaring in the range of $9.7 trillion, which is nearly $30,000 for every man, woman and child in America. Who is going to pay off this debt, which includes billions Bush has borrowed from communist China?

Just watch. When the Democrats return to power the Republicans will say, “Look at those Democrats wanting to raise your taxes again.”

It will happen, trust me, it will happen, and some Americans will get sucked in and believe it.
