I think Dell's numbers are more accurate. But yes, you did counter with numbers of your own, rather than others who use an abbreviation for a crass figure of speech.

My dispute with your numbers was the "regular spending" qualifier. The total is all that matters - whether military, social, stimulus, etc is irrelevant. The total overspending drives the yearly deficit, which then accumulate into the national debt.
