Added link to Treasury Debt

A link to the Treasury Direct national debt to the penny page has been added. There is no RSS feed for it, so you have to visit it to see the current numbers. It is updated every federal work day.

On January 20, 2009, the total public debt was 10,626,877,048,913.08.

George W. Bush nearly doubled the entire national debt while he was president, but we didn't crash the 11 trillion mark. Oh, well, we can still do it easily this year and with a little luck hit 12 trillion!
