Bush Admin/Al Qa'eda 3rd Quarter Score

The Bush Administration seems to be losing the economic phase of the 'war' with Al' Qa'eda if one accepts the administration's notion that Al Qa'eda is the reason for the record setting federal budget deficits following the record surpluses of the Clinton administrations later years. A reasonable administration claim to victory could have been if following 9-11 federal surpluses continued.

Perhaps the next administration will be able to overcome the administration's record setting deficits and reliance on Chinese and India, Japanese and other foreign borrowing to prop up a fossilized economic situation in the U.S.A. stimulated by cheap migrant laborers in construction and cheap imports for Wal-Mart from China. The next administration will also need to create a new intellectual vitality and secure the borders against illegal immigration, lead in new environmental, energy and transport structures, and influence the 'entertainment industry away from just athletic role models toward actual programming of educational value. While some elements of the immigrant culture hasn't much of an intellectual value perhaps, compared to plain materialism, one cannot blame them at all for the brainwashing droll shoulderism and babe bellies programmed on 30 of 31 cable stations.
