Don't worry about it, that number will be inflated every so often to ensure it's higher than Obama's price of change.

The 7 trillion will be 20 trillion by the 2010 elections.

"When Mr. Bush took office, the national debt was $5.727 trillion."
"
" * One week before leaving office, Bush asked Congress for the remaining $350 billion of the $700 billion Wall Street Troubled Assets Relief Program or TARP bailout package.

* That same last week, Bush signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 raising the national debt ceiling for the eighth time to $12.104 trillion to accommodate the $11.3 trillion all time record debt he left the incoming administration."

12 - 5 = 7
