Bush will run up "13 trillion more in debt estimated". Message 19474384 Adding it all up: Message 19474429 Where did you pull that number from? Bush has only run deficits in the past two years of less than half a trillion for the two years combined (the year before that was a surplus), so by your "13 trillion" claim he has got to run up more than 12.5 trillion in deficits in the next six years to meet your estimate. That's nearly 2.1 trillion a year in deficits. The entire federal budget right now is only between 2.1 and 2.2 trillion! Are you suggesting that Bush is going to cut taxes to zero for everyone??? Learn to add. Then we'll work on subtraction and the really tough subjects like multiplication, division, and other forms of rational thought.
