That’s about right.

According to the White House’s Office of Management and Budget, during his eight fiscal years, Bush ran up a total of $3.283 trillion in deficit. When 0bama took office, the national debt stood at $10.626 trillion. It is now at $17.341 trillion in only 5 years.

So Bush ran up the debt from $7.343 trillion to $10.626 trillion in his eight years. It is still a disgrace, but about the right amount.

Perhaps the amount in deficit is correct, however the national debt went up from 5.7 Trillion to 10.6 Trillion under Bush.

The bottom line is you can't trust the R's and D's to control spending.
