The national debt went up 4.7 trillion under Bush. That's terrible, isn't it?
When that news came out, everyone blamed Bush for being a terrible leader. But the current version of the "recovery" bill has now been estimated by the Congressional Budget Office to be 3.27 Trillion. If the 4.7 trillion deficit under Bush was bad, how bad is BO's 3.27 recovery bill?

Yes. And it took Congress 8 years to do that. Obama with the aid of Nazi Pelosi and Dingy Harry Reid has managed 3.7 trillion in only three and a half weeks! How are we going to afford the next 204 weeks?

4.7 trillion was over EIGHT years.
BHO is running up the deficit in the trillions in his first month,
Just imagine four years.

Please don't reference BLOGS from right-wing websites like Heritage and expect us to believe it.
If you want to play like that well then Bush's real cost for his national debt is 9 TRILLION, after you take into account inflation, and any other fudge factors Heritage is using. In fact, Bush has really created trillions more in debt in the form of that medicare pork bill Republicans passed in the dead of night. That's a responsibility that the government will have to honor for years to come.

we will be paying the Bush debt for decades. any debt being incurred now under any type of a stimulus plan is a result of the failure of the Bush Administration.
