So GW Bush increased the amount of government spending and intervention over that of Clinton and Reagan?

Yes. (And that was only in 2003. It got much, much uglier.)

So, why do people think having the Republicans in power is going to make a difference?

 

Interesting that the trillions spent on the wars doesn't show up until 2009....I wonder why that is.....

Oh of course! Bush circumvented counting the war in the deficit by classing it as an "emergency spending measure" until Obama outlawed it.

Keep telling yourself that Republicans help the budget. Let's see how that goes...
