New Study on Antiterror Spending Is Fodder for Rival Camps - September 6, 2002
"Brian M. Riedl, a fellow at the Heritage Foundation, the conservative research group, said the four fiscal years through 2003 were on track to be one of the periods of the highest spending in American history and that there was so far little political pressure to curb spending on either national security or social programs.

"Republicans and Democrats basically make a deal with each other — `I'll vote for your increase if you'll vote for my increase,"' Mr. Riedl said. "As long as voters don't seem intent on punishing politicians for budget deficits, both parties feel they are in the clear."

"If the Congress won't show spending restraint, I intend to enforce spending restraint," - George W. Bush - September 3, 2002

Bush Loves Clinton Plan - "Bush did not dismantle his predecessor's national service initiative, AmeriCorps, but has called for its expansion from 50,000 to 75,000 full-time paid volunteers."

Limiting government with "paid" volunteers. Huh?

Now that Bush has shown he would do the same even before he gets a chance to appoint anyone to the Supreme Court, this will be forgotten, I suppose.
