The Dow is now lower than it was when Bush took office. ..."With no fanfare and little notice, the national debt has grown by more than $4 trillion during George W. Bush's presidency.

"It's the biggest increase under any president in U.S history."

"On the day President Bush took office, the national debt stood at $5.727 trillion. The latest number from the Treasury Department shows the national debt now stands at more than $9.849 trillion. That's a 71.9 percent increase on Mr. Bush's watch."

And that's without the bailout. "Buried deep in the hundred pages of bailout legislation is a provision that would raise the statutory ceiling on the national debt to $11.315 trillion."
