"This chart, based on
historical figures from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, shows the total
deficit or surplus for each fiscal year from 1990 through 2006. Keep in
mind that fiscal years begin Oct. 1, so the first year that can be
counted as a Clinton year is fiscal 1994. The appropriations bills for
fiscal years 1990 through 1993 were signed by Bill Clinton’s
predecessor, George H.W. Bush. Fiscal 2002 is the first for which
President George W. Bush signed the appropriations bills, and the first
to show the effect of his tax cuts."

Following is the National Debt, mostly by month for the Clinton years.
Where, other than the year 2000, did the national debt go down?
(Reduction of the national debt is the ONLY way to TRUTHFULLY see the Deficit/surplus)
