I will just give you one example of your inability to read critically what I wrote instead of misrepresenting it.
My comments about revenues to the Treasury under Bush in a prior post were accompanied by a table that covered his first term and documented record growth in revenue to the Treasury AFTER his tax cuts. Now to listen to the left tax cuts cause revenues to go down and the economy to tank. That just isn't so and the numbers prove it. But those numbers came from the Treasury Department website so unless they made a mistake lets just say your characterization of my post was less than accurate.
But once again, Archie, you want to have it both ways and I am pointing out that you can't. Either Obama was responsible for the terrible economy during his first term or Bush was and if it is the latter then Carter deserves no credit for his first term (that goes to Ford/Nixon), he is directly responsible for the rough start of Reagan's first term and Reagan, after cutting tax rates was responsible for the boom that occurred in his second term. You choose because I am OK either way.
As for Clinton, as I have already pointed out to you he had two significant advantages for his presidency. First, he was the first president to truly benefit from our cold war victory and second, he had the GOP in control of Congress and because he was more ambitious (ie, he wanted a second term) than he was ideological he went along with what they wanted and got the results. You have to look at the full picture and not cherry pick one or the other.
Facts, logic and reason......use them Archie, they will change your life.
