Look at these numbers, Pat. I‘ve got these in my book. Spending for the Department of Education since [1994] up 101 percent. Department of Justice, up 131 percent. Department of Health and Human Services, up 81 percent .. Justice, 131 percent. This is since Republicans took control. The Department of Education, 101 percent. Department of Commerce, 82 percent increase. Department of Health and Human Services, up 81 percent. You can keep going. The State Department, up 80 percent. The Department of Transportation, up 65 percent. Housing and Urban Development, up 59 percent ..UPDATE: The folks at the CATO Institute have had it with Bush after early encouragement that Bush would do something about the ever deepening social security / entitlement crisis.
