Obama Is No Clinton | Michael D. Tanner | Cato Institute: Commentary: "Under President Clinton, federal spending averaged 19.8 percent of GDP and actually hit a low of just 18.3 percent. In contrast, spending under President Obama over the past four years has averaged 24.4 percent of GDP. And going forward, the president's proposed budgets would never spend less than 22 percent of GDP."
