So, in 2001, when W got in, the gov't was running a surplus. How much debt has been accumulated since then? Then take into account the spending that is happening now to get the economy rolling, and the rest of the spending yet has to happen.

MEN DO REMEMBER ANNIVERSARIES
A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was not in
their bed. She puts on her dressing gown and goes downstairs to look for
him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of coffee
in front of him. He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the
wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his
coffee. 'What's the matter, dear?' she whispers as she steps into the
room, 'Why are you down here at this time of night?' The husband looks
up from his coffee, 'I am just remembering when we first met 20 years
ago and started dating. You were only 16. Do you remember back then?' he
says solemnly. The wife is touched to tears thinking that her husband is
so caring, so sensitive. 'Yes, I do' she replies. The husband pauses.
The words were not coming easily. 'Do you remember when your father
caught us in the back seat of my car?' 'Yes, I remember!' said the wife,
lowering herself into a chair beside him. The husband continues. 'Do you
remember when he shoved the shotgun in my face and said, 'Either you
marry my daughter, or I will send you to jail for 20 years?' 'I remember
that too' she replies softly. He wipes another tear from his cheek and
says....'I would have been released today.'
