As of October 4, 2007, the national debt, as of October 4, 2007, is now $9,050,048,079,280.70. On George W. Bush’s watch, the national debt has exploded, soaring out of sight from the $5.7 trillion debt Bill Clinton left to him. The yearly interest alone on such a debt is over $400 billion dollars. In 2008, only income redistribution programs including welfare and social security (est. $1.8 trillion and defense (est. $606 billion) will be larger portions of the budget.

The national debt is the “grandchild tax.” We spend the money; our grandchildren will pay the bills for our legacy of overspending and irresponsibility. With budget deficits ranging from a high in 2004 of $521 billion to this year’s projected near-$300 billion deficit, the national debt and our grandchildren’s tax burden continue to grow.

There is only one good time to end the war in Iraq:  Already.

President Bush and the Congress still don't seem to understand this.  President Bush announced last night that by August 2008 our troop numbers in Iraq would still be slightly more than pre-surge levels.  His announcement is unacceptable to a majority of Americans:  We Americans want complete withdrawal from Iraq now.

Bush's speech was followed by an incredibly thoughtless pronouncement by House Minority Leader Boehner.  Boehner claimed the nearly 4,000 American dead–nearly 5,000 if you count civilian employees–and 30,000 wounded was "a small price to pay."

Gay Marriage -  The debate over gay marriage is a wonderful example of what's wrong with Washington.  Down the street where I live are two churches.   One church views gay marriage with horror.  The other has been happily marrying gays for years.  The Libertarian position is simple: Gay marriage is purely a personal and religious question, not a question for government to decide. The George Bush Republican party disagrees: They've made it Uncle Sam's business by passing the so-called Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA).

The Defense of Marriage Act is deeply flawed. In 1967, the landmark Supreme Court case, Loving v Virginia found that the right to marry is a "basic civil [right] of man.” Loving v Virginia ended legal discrimination in marriage.  DOMA tries to bring legal discrimination back into marriage.
