   That link didn't work for me, but I found one that probably will compare   
   with it.

   At her final press conference as House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said,   
   "Deficit reduction has been a high priority for us. It is our mantra,   
   pay-as-you-go."   
      
   The numbers tell a different story.   
      
   When the Pelosi Democrats took control of Congress on January 4, 2007, the   
   national debt stood at $8,670,596,242,973.04. The last day of the 111th   
   Congress and Pelosi's Speakership on December 22, 2010 the national debt   
   was $13,858,529,371,601.09 - a roughly $5.2 trillion increase in just four   
   years. Furthermore, the year over year federal deficit has roughly   
   quadrupled during Pelosi's four years as speaker, from $342 billion in   
   fiscal year 2007 to an estimated $1.6 trillion at the end of fiscal year   
   2010.
