Let's all remember, this growth in spending occurred under both republican AND democrat administrations and legislatures.
We the people need to wake up and begin the process of deconstructing the bureaucracies that these crooked politicians placed in the paths of citizens wanting transparency in government.
The tree of liberty...is gettin thirsty.
You are correct, Bush spent but Obama has put it in fifth gear. As a Constitutionalist, I hope that there will come a day when both parties reflect the spirit of Grover Cleveland and not spend for frivolous political reasons.
