That's a crock!  The way the budget process works is that Reagan proposes a 
budget to the congress, which then modifies it and sends it back to
the President for approval.  All of Reagan's proposed budgets have 
included deficits BEFORE congress ever got a hand on them.  The 
Republican Senate also has never produced a deficit free version.
