Government Outgrows Cap Set by President

Confounding President Bush's pledges to rein in government growth, federal discretionary spending expanded by 12.5 percent in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, capping a two-year bulge that saw the government grow by more than 27 percent, according to preliminary spending figures from congressional budget panels.

Bush Baby rebuttal:
"The Washinton Post? Every word they print is a lie!"
"Spending is good when the GOP is bankrupting the country."
"On Monday, Rush Limbaugh will tell me why it's OK for the government to get bigger under Bush so I don't believe you."
