“We’re discussing money not amnesty. Stay focused. And I was not happy about TARP either. But two wars, a recession, Katrina, Rita... and only $1.8 trillion in 8 years is not good but it is not the horror you are making it out to be. That horror is happening right now with Obama at over $1 trillion budget deficit per year along with intergovernmental debt expanding rapidly.”

$4 trillion added to the federal debt in that time period. You need to understand that saying the other guy is worse is NOT A DEFENSE!

Most of that $4 trillion is intergovernmental debt. That's entitlement programs that are a beast of their own.

Not my day to be a teacher. Have a good day.
