The Cato Institute Report gives the following summary of federal spending under recent presidents:

The increase in discretionary spending—that is, all non-entitlement programs—in Bush’s first term was 48.5 percent in nominal terms. That’s more than twice as large as the increase in discretionary spending during Clinton’s entire two terms (21.6 percent), and just higher than Lyndon Johnson’s entire discretionary spending spree (48.3 percent).
