Oh, I don't know how about experience running a business thus the 17.5 trillion dollar economy and actually growing it?
What are you trying to say?? Reagan tripled the ND, Bush doubled it. You really think the next republican president will pay down on it. Bush promised a plan to reduce the ND by several trillion over ten years, instead he doubled it. When people start putting America before party loyalty, we'll fix this problem. Until then, the growth of this debt continues to grow no matter who occupies the WH.
Oh, here we go again, this is typical BS, Reagan took the debt from 900 billion to 2.6 trillion and doubled the GDP, created 17 million jobs, and got a 60% growth in FIT with his tax cuts. Your revisionist is just like everything else you post, opinions based upon ignorance of basic economics and the private sector economy.
What 'important landmarks' will add to BHO's positive legacy?
It doesn't seem right that someone else should fail in order to make Obama look good. Keep in mind that Obama will be leaving behind a $20 trillion dollar debt, troubled race relations, international policies in chaos and little or no respect from any world leaders. I can't see any accomplishments at all but I'd like to hear of some..
Thank you for finally acknowledging that Reagan tripled the ND. And for ignoring that Bush doubled it, despite his promise to pay it down. Such stupid partisan bull ****.
Percentage change, tell me which would you prefer given a choice, 2.6 trillion debt on a 5.2 trillion dollar economy or 18.2 trillion in debt on a 17.5 trillion dollar economy?
Another way of looking at it, Reagan inherited a 2.8 trillion dollar economy that went to 5.6 trillion or an increase of 2.8 trillion dollars. for that the cost was 1.7 trillion dollars in debt.
Obama inherited a 14.7 trillion dollar economy that is now 17.5 trillion or a 2.8 trillion dollar increase at a cost of 7.6 trillion in debt.
Doesn't appear that you have much of a case for your hated of tripling the debt.
At the expense of the middle class that thirty years of Reaganomics, (also known as voodoo economics by his Vice President) has waged war upon.
Right. Because providing health care and equal rights is destruction. Same thing the GOP said when we were busy providing social security, Medicare and civil rights in times past.
Exactly, that is why Reagan won 49 states in 1984, he alienated the middle class.
Obama did neither of those things, lib.
Obama and Bush were both re-elected to second terms.1984 was too soon to realize that Reaganomics was going to hurt the middle class. Nice to see you ignore HW Bush's opinion of Reaganomics. :lamo
Tell me exactly how creating 17 million jobs, doubling the GDP hurt the middle class? You really are out of touch with reality. How old were you during the 80's. I was in my early 40's

Then what's your beef con??
My beef is that you give him credit for things he didnt do.
And you are giving Democrats credit for things Republicans did. Typical lib. Let me guess, you think Lincoln was a liberal Democrat? :lol:
Raising payroll taxes probably did not help out the middle class very much
While the other half provide them with a republican congress.
Technically that's not actually true. We have a Republican congress because less people vote in midterm elections than in presidential election years.
Oh really? Explain the 2006 midterm then, liar.
RealClearPolitics - Election Other - President Obama Job Approval
With that said, you will notice that his average sits at -2.8, and that is the best split for Obama since June of 2013.
Not cool just to throw around the term "liar" like that. In fact, its shameful and ugly.

Lincoln was a progressive. The Republican party used to be the more "progressive" of the two parties. Then, the conservatives took over, and it's been downhill since.
