"War spending had nothing, AT ALL, to do with this. Hell, it was a trillion over 10 years -- that's 100B/year." Dave, that trillion was out of the $7 trillion that Bush ran up during his tenure. That is a fair fraction. Claiming that it was insignificant is, well, sort of stupid. No, it wasn't the totality of it. But it certainly was a contributor. As was the Bush tax cut. And the military build up. And the global war on terror. Face it, the vast majority of the debt was rung up under Republican administrations. Those are the facts.
