Whenever a Republican becomes president, our federal budget deficit seems to triple or quadruple (remember Ronald Reagan's era? and now G.W. Bush?), and the deficit has been caused not by spending too much money for education, for health care, for police, for children etc..., but by spending money for wars and many other bad things....

Let's not get into Dems vs. Repubs debate here ... BTW, it appears that you have issues with our past and present Presidents ... Start a thread on this subject! Have courage.
Davis is being recalled. The voting citizens of California will either say yes or no. And if yes (to the recall), the citizens of this great State will decide who will lead them out of this mess.
California currently has a $38B deficit ... we must tighten the belt of our spending; not raise taxes. Just like at home, if one owes $$$ in credit cards etc., either you stop spending, give up some 'wants' and focus on the 'needs'. We MUST have fiscal responsibility.
Today, Standard and Poor’s just downgraded California's Bond Rating to just above Junk status. What does this mean? Well, California provides approximately 11% of this
COUNTRY's economy. The impact will be felt by all; not just in California.
