Wouldn't your lefty group have to obtain budget information from the CBO to determine what was spent on what. ie Iraq and Afghan war v. say Recovery measures v. future Government pension obligations v. increased health care spending. Ooops CBPP.org left those factors out. Wonder if that was on purpose?

BTW When the graph is titled Legacy of Bush Policies? Enough said.
