[This administration has expanded government by 50% the largest in this countries history.]
sigh.
You just pulled that 50% number out of thin air (or else you heard it on CBS or CNN which amounts to the same thing).
1) Congress writes the federal budget, the president only signs it or not.
2) The government has been growing at an average rate of about 5.5 to 6 percent per year during the George W. Bush administration.
3) There have been MANY years in the past few decades when the government grew at a much faster rate than it has during this administration.
4)It's important to the reputation of Free Republic to site sources.
