A Borrow and Spend Conservative

( I think this should be re-phrased to "Tax-Later and Spend"! )

President Bush "is tracking toward a 40 percent spending increase as he approaches five years in office -- and that pace could quicken as new obligations come due," the Sacramento Bee reports. "Spending growth under Bush is averaging 6.9 percent a year, almost double the 3.6 percent rate that occurred under his Democratic predecessor, Bill Clinton."

"It also exceeds the spending increases that occurred under Clinton's Republican predecessors. Federal outlays grew an average 5.4 percent under Bush's father, George H.W. Bush, and 6.7 percent under Ronald Reagan, who engineered a massive Cold War military buildup."

( The chimp is spending MORE than Ronnie Ray-Gun spent to defeat the Evil Empire! )
