WTF Is It Now?!?

From whatthef*ck?!?.com, 'White House Sees Good News In Record Deficit'
The federal deficit soared to $374.2 billion in 2003, the White House said Monday, a record total that more than doubled last year's red ink and looked like a prelude to even gloomier numbers.

Because the shortfall wasn't as bad as they thought it was going to be, Bush misadministration officials cited it as evidence that their attempts to fortify the economy were working.

"Today's budget numbers reinforce the indications we have seen for some months now: that the economy is well on the path to recovery,'' Treasury Secretary John 'snowjob' Snow said.
