Food For Thought on a Slow Day

[SparrowHawk]

Reagan was President for all but about 20 days of those years.

The comparision is fair.

Include Carter, then you have to include Bush Jr..

Are you sure on Reagan/Carter as far as the Debt to GDP ratio goes?

You'll get no argument if we start at Carter/Reagan through until today and include EVERY single POTUS since Gerald Ford left office.

One of the things that really frosts my assets are Republicans blaming the debt bomb solely on the Democrats. That's absolute BS and they know it. Republicans are real good at talking the talk and have a terrible time walking the walk. My contempt for "little Bush" is almost equal to my disdain for the guy we have now.

While "Little Bush" may have had a little more on the ball foreign policy wise but domestically he was just another spendthrift Liberal dressed up as a Bible thumping Conservative.

You started a thread based on unemployment rates alone.

The comparision to the early Reagan years is fair.

Both Reagan and Obama inherited a mess.

No real argument here.
