The figures on that graph are the very figures being discussed this past week in the media by our Senators/Congressmen. Those figures are very public and are in the media today. You don't like the graph, you can check the CBO and get them yourself.

You posted a graph of one budget year. That's not the same as a listing of our debt over time. But I have no idea what you are trying to show by posting your budget year breakdown, and what that has to do with what is causing our debt over time. Yes, we have to cut stuff out of the yearly budgets.

Of course it is wrong. Like I said it leaves out everything not Bush. You do know the current Pres is spending $ on a war he campaigned against years ago. Where's the asterix for Bush/Obama? Where's the $2 Trillion ObamaCare cost's effect? Where's the Obama Stimulus failure?

The Iraq war was costly but less than a trillion total.
