I don't understand your numbers in relation to what Wikipedia has to say on the issue. How does your number relate to these? If at all?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_public_debt

2001 $144.5 billion 1.4%

2002 $409.5 billion 3.9%

2003 $589.0 billion 5.5%

2004 $605.0 billion 5.3%

2005 $523.0 billion 4.3%

2006 $536.5 billion 4.1%

2007 $459.5 billion 3.4%

2008 $1017.0 billion (proj.) 7.4%

I think it's a shame we let Pay As You Go expire in 2002. It seemed to be working pretty well to keep spending under control.
