National Debt:
1990 3,233,313,451,777.25
2000 5,674,178,209,886.86
2010 13,561,623,030,891.79
So the national debt at least doubled under George W. I'm not an Obama fan right now but I don't blame him for the current state of our national debt. Let's not forget Bush was at the helm when our economy started to nosedive (and when all that creative financing was occurring with mortgages) and as I recall he signed or endorsed the initial stimulus package. Oh, and he got us involved in two very expensive wars--one over weapons of mass destruction that oops, didn't exist.
I hate all politicians right now.
