Who's talking about the overall debt?

The Tea Party saw huge increases in spending and didn't want to pay more taxes to make up for it. How hard is that to understand.

- And yet that level of deficit spending was significantly less than what started the Tea Party. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:54 5
  - You can say however much you want to about how bad things were under Bush, but the fact remains we never had a trillion dollar deficit until... - Ender Aug 23, 13:56 4

      - In Nov '08 the FY 08 deficit was scored by the CBO at $455 billion. The shit didn't hit the fan until '09. - Ender Aug 23, 14:11
    - ergo, the Tea Party caused the increase in the deficit!!! -- nm - znufrii Aug 23, 13:58 1
