I would apologize if I was wrong. Why the determination to blame Bush for something he was not responsible for?
BTW, Bush kept the increases for discretionary spending (not including defense) at about the same rate as inflation for his whole term. Deficits topped out at about 2.5% of GDP, total debt remained at about 60% of GDP....within historical norms since WWII. Better than Reagans budget numbers...
Entitlements were the big drivers of the budget increases, and Bush couldn’t do anything about them. He tried with SS, and was ignored.
You should quit making excuses for Barney Frank, Obama, and the rest of the Dems.

If you were standing in front of me you would regret that.
