According to recent estimates by the Heritage Institute, the increase in discretionary spending between the Bush administration over the Clinton administration is going to exceed the increase in non-discretionary spending. This is going to be the first time that happened since Lyndon B. Johnson was president.

It is in no way implausible that spending would be more under control under a Gore administration than it is under Bush, nor that homeland security would be better handled.

thank you for saying that because I believe it is true. I can't vote for Al Gore because he proved himself to be a crook while in office. But I can't vote for Bush either and only in part because he's proven himself to spend taxpayer's money like a drunken sailor would spend his own money.

I used to rail against the Democrats endlessly. But the Republicans are now equally worthy.

I follow George Washington. I don't follow George Bush. Incumbents who mis-behave while in office are bums and need to be thrown out. I don't care what party they're in.

Actually Bush's first discretionary budget -- year 2001 -- went DOWN relative to GNP.

Instead of listening to what the Heritage Institute says, why don't you go find the facts yourself?
