This guy is a twit.

Bushie recalculated tax revenue over 1998, 1999 and 2000 and discovered that Social Security had been short-changed by $5.6 billion. Under normal circumstances, the government would have taken that $5.6 billion out of existing general revenue and given it to Social Security. But the White House decided to leave it in the general fund so Congress could use it on other domestic spending.
How nice.
