And now Obama is concerned about the debt.....he is a political monster.

Today at worked I stumbled upon the WhiteHouse webpage and found a historic spreadsheet of "Summary of Summary of Receipts, Outlays, and Surpluses or Deficits".  So I thought it would be interesting to graph the data, as sometimes a picture is a thousand words. 

This is the result.  Mind you that 2010-2012 is estimated by the White House.

And the numbers keep getting bigger...
