yes uscit,PS...comparing the gross cumulative national debt to Obama's one year accrued national debt is dishonest, btw, and really erodes credibility on any issue.
"...the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that, including the record 2009 budget deficit of $1.85 trillion, and huge annual deficits over 2009-2019 will result in an additional $11.1 trillion in national debt, on top of the current $11.4 trillion."

That of course was an article written just a few months into Obama's spree, and the CBO was wildly optimistic at that time.
Obama spent 3 x more in his first year than Bush did in his last:
"The latest high-point is not unexpected, considering the federal deficit for the just-ended 2009 fiscal year hit an all-time high at $1.42-trillion more than triple the previous year's record high."
