And Bill Clinton had NO debt during 4 years of his term; you don't have to go back to the 50's to see that. Check your facts before posting please!

There you go again, making up your own version of facts. Not true, the public debt owed on Jan 20, 2009 was $6,307,310,739,681.66. Today's public debt is: $13,378,216,906,933.97. That is more than double and we still have another year to go.
These are figures taken from TreasuryDirect.gov today.
The national debt was not $11 trillion.
