This must make you all proud. George W. Bush has outspent LBJ! He still has three years left on his term to put the "Great Society" to shame. There are links to these figures at the site. Link below; my emphasis.

"Those figures come by way of the American Enterprise Institute's Veronique de Rugy, who has calculated that George W. Bush has boosted total inflation-adjusted discretionary spending in his first term by 35.1 percent. To put that in context, chew on this: LBJ—the Texas legend who created the Great Society and, for all intents and purposes, the Vietnam War—only boosted discretionary spending 33.4 percent. "
