Holy cow where do you get your info? The GOP website?

So if Bush left with 9 trillion and your statement of Obama adding more than all presidents combined (we will not even do real math for the presidents that actually created a surplus) then you are saying that Obama has created over 9 trillion?
Also keep in mind that Obama walked in to a lot of this debt rolling over (so did Clinton and we see how that ended). The Bush tax cuts that are in place and being voted on right now account for 210 billion over the past 3 years alone. Those cuts mainly effect the top 2% earners in the country. Add in unemployment benefits, which anyone elected would have walked in to. When Bush entered office there was a 240billion surplus when he left he had a 1.4billion deficit. That is a huge number to walk into for anyone. Whoever won the 2008 election was doomed IMO.

And with the use of a few breeder reactors producing more fuel than they consume that point becomes moot.:roll:

You are only counting the debt to date and ignoring the costs of his planned spending.
How about an honest debate Jason?

For the interested that understand math.
During his presidential campaign, President Barack Obama promised the American people a "net spending cut."1 Instead, he signed a "stimulus" bill that spends $800 billion, and he has proposed a budget that would:
