Recall that spending is set by Congress so the increase in debt since 2006 is not just a Bush problem. In fact, if you look at the numbers since Democrats took control of Congress our national debt has risen 38%. As of January 1, 2006 the total debt was $8.17 trillion (directly from the U.S. Treasury Department website) versus $11.30 trillion today. Looking at it another way, of the total debt to date, almost 40% has come about since Democrats took control of the purse strings.

Worse still, the Obama administration and Democrat controlled Congress will add another $1.8 trillion next year alone!! And once they try to take control of health care it will increase exponentially.
