Then what is Obamas excuse?
You said Reagan had a Democrat congress...but the Republicans were in majority in the Senate for 6 of the 8 years...and had enough votes in the other two years to insure a no vote on cloture.
The Republicans effectively ruled the congress.
Your question about Obama makes no sense.
Quote:This guy?
If you are asking my opinion, the world would probably be a better place if that guy had never been president.
Anyway, back to the topic for a while: Another reason people should not vote for Republicans is that Ronald Reagan started the notion that government is part of the problem...not a part of the solution. And Republicans, hungry for someone to idolize, think that makes sense. (In my opinion, it makes no sense at all!)
So they start by trying to govern from the perspective that government is bad.
True friends do not let friends vote Republican.
