Big Spender Bush
The Tax Foundation has provided a neat little table summarizing the spendthrift ways of Geo. W. Bush, as opposed to Presidents Clinton, H.W. Bush, Reagan, and Carter.
Dubya leads the pack in "Average Annual Growth in Outlays during term in constant $2004"; he's upped spending, on average, 4.6 percent, easily outpacing his nearest competitors (Carter, at 4.1 percent, and Reagan, at 3.5 percent).
Update: I finally added the link.
