Newsmax (RW): 1st Bush term increases twice that of Clinton's 2 terms.
The Rightwing propaganda machine has turned against Bush in emailing everyone on their list that Bush's discretionary spending increases during his first term outstripped the increases of LBJ's great soceity and more than DOUBLED the increases in discretionary spending of BOTH Clinton terms. So Bush has increased spending by twice as much as Clinton did in only half the time.

And what do we have to show for all those increases? A lot. Go ask anyone in New Orleans or Baghdad. Actually, just go ask anyone at all.

1. And cut taxes (on the rich), so it all ended up as deficit spending.
