wait a minute....you mean youve got to wait a few years before you can objectively look back on a certain time or event to see its true impact? like ZOMG who would have thought, right?

we get it, keeper. you dont like either party. but what you are failing to recognize (perhaps from not reading) is that certain people, such as myself and quick, are not blindly bleating the republican horn like you like to claim. we are not only capable of pointing out republican flaws, but also democratic strengths and are making fact-filled stances based on certain issues, not simple cromagnum "democrats goooood. republicans baaaaaad" mentality. it is the other side in this argument who is incapable of seeing beyond his own donkey-tinted views.

During his tenure his unemployment rate hit as high to a very close to 11%. And that lame Bullsh-it that it was because of Carter is just pathetic, it was well into his time frame and even when Reagan immediately went into office and unveiled his "Program for Economic Recovery" in Feb/1981 where he called for a 30% tax cut over three years and an increase in defense expenditures. Also his (yearly average) unemployment rate was highest ever recorded during tenure in the 1980's, but if you want to shrug it off or downplay his (yearly average) of 9.7% unemployment, to put it in perspective, with all the crap we have going on TODAY we are just ONLY at 4.7%. This BTW is siting your very own USDOL, and I can not find (as I'm at work) the month average where it almost hit 11%.
Not to mention his f- approval rating was a plummets to measly 35% by Jan/1983. Were you one the fools who played devil's advocate and approved?
Quote:
Reagan's approval rating while he served peaked at 73 percent in the spring of 1981, after he was shot and wounded in an assassination attempt, and hit 70 percent in 1986, after he ordered a bombing raid against Libya. It fell to a low of 42 percent in early 1983, following a surge in unemployment and dropped to 44 percent in early 1987, during the Iran-Contra controversy.

Also are you the one has Alzimers (no pun intended) to seem to forget how lousy he was and approve of the jack ass more now then when he was in power?
Hey if you want to defend his work with his high unemployment rating, mass spending; quadrupling our debt, socializing the unnecessary rich "to trickle down," instigating manufacturing jobs to go elsewhere because there was a push via tax incentives to build outside, then you are just proving that either you don't give a sh-it about this country as you sit in your high horse, or you are just an idiot that will never acknowledge his mistakes just because he had the title... "Republican."
Keep running your bullsh!t filled mouth. I guarantee you're losing more respect every time you post. I'd be surprized if people who agree with you aren't looking at your posts now and thinking you're a sh!thead.
Go ahead an pull your month-to-month unemployment figures. I'll let you post them up, rather than posting them up myself. You have shown before that you're good at making my points for me. Why make you stop now?
The bottom line is that yes, in his second year of office, the state of the economy can still be attributed to the previous administration. I'm sure in two years, you're still going to be blaming Bush for it, but that's because he's a Republican, so they can be blamed whenever possible, but never blame Democrats, right? Anyone with even half a brain in their head knows that economic changes do not happen immediately, they take time to set in, even after it's signed into effect. But you like to think that things happen immediately, so that you can blame Reagan for the early 80's recession, give Clinton credit for the early 90's upswing, and absolve Clinton for the 2000 beginning of the downswing.
Every year following the peak of unemployment it declined, and at at increasing rate.
And if you read the entire ABC News Poll article you linked, you'll see that after his presidency, people began to look back and realize that he really did do some very good things for the country, and also that 45% of Democrats still approve of his administration, and 68% of independants.
And I get a real kick out of your statement that he socialized the rich. How is not taking more than half of their money socializing? You're ideals on taxes are more socialist than anything, as you showed in one of your other useless arguments about rich people only paying 20 percentage points more.
Your skull must be seriously thick, leaving zero room for brain matter. Your ignorance is unbelievable.
Just to express my appreciation of you, I took a few minutes to do you the favor of making you a new sig. I think it's even more fitting than the caveman in your current one:
Awww I made you mad. Why am I not surprised?
Hey, truth hurts down there huh man?
Oh while rubbing anal-ease, read up how much the Star Wars failed project cost us.
THE POLITICALLY INCORRECT ONE.
The point, tabs, is that the further these squabbles get--right or wrong, regarless of side, the harder you're going to get anal raped.
Unfortunately, many, on both sides, are so caught up in the feces-flinging and personal insults that they forget how bad they are being screwed. It doesn't help that somehow your political party because a more critical identity marker than, say blood type or eye color.
Further, it didn't help watching a documentary on George Washington last night--especially given his stance on partisan politics.

Keeper you see yourself as so far detached as both sides being so bad that you never seem to make a call one way or the other. Indecision is just as bad as a poor decision. You gotta pick one side or the other.

Like hell we do!! There are some times that Republicans are right, some times that Democrats are right, and plenty of times that YOU ARE BOTH WRONG. That "you have to pick sides" mentality is the biggest(but hardly only) thing wrong with American politics today. Some of us think as "our party" thinks, and the rest of us like to think for ourselves.
Are you saying I will be assimilated and resistance is futile?
Naturally the common people don't want war; neither in Russia, nor in England, nor in
America, nor in Germany. That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the
country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along,
whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist
dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the
leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and
denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the
same in any country. - Hermann Goring
Damn, Bastard...beat me to it. Well said.
Rodimus: The fact that you, and many others, think we have to pick one side or another side is the core problem to this nation right now.

If people had to take a test on policies before they *voted their conscious* only 10% of people would be allowed to vote. I hate to say it but individuals are smart, people are stupid. How many college kids got caught up in Obamaina instead of doing the research. My little brother was probama but couldnt even tell me his running mate or what state he was from.
Vote for your personal beliefs, but what Rodimus was saying (i think) is know your heart, speak its virtues. You can switch sides, but not values.

True and yet just as many people got caught up
in obama-hating-mania without proper research as well. Most people started with a preconceived notion of some sort and sought out any voice who will reinforce their preconcieved notions(this is how both liberal and conservative talk radio function), and they consider the matter proven. They are right and the other side are brainwashed sheep(LOL, look in the mirror please), the voice told them so. Also the voice told them that they are victims of the so-called opposite agenda and/or conspiracy("Liberal media" anyone?) but luckily the voice is on their side and "fighting for you." So the voice speaks, so it is written, and so the sheeple rejoice.
Both political parties have a large established base of uneducated or under-educated voters to drown out the well educated and informed of their party - hence why we mainly see a radical right P.O.V. versus a radical left P.O.V. conflict - rather than centrists debating the finer points of common sense. Of course common sense isn't really that common thanks to the sheeple in both wings.
This is my last post of the month so I won't be replying right away.

Im a Xbox 360 fanboy...and damn proud of it!!
Unfortunatly now we have only 2 parties so there are no dynamic candidates for every different person, what most voters that actually *resrearch* their candidate have to do is see what issues are important to them. The propblem is most candidates vote party lines not their personal beliefs. Thats why I voted for Lieberman, he uses his votes based on his beliefs, which is why he was elected even after disownment by his party.

You would vote Republican if you feel a company has the right to fail unless it a Bank
You have no money but you want to keep your right to gun ownership so you can go on rampage after you get let go because in America a company has a right to Fail.
You would vote Republican if you feel rich and have contempt for others you see as less then human because they are not in your tax bracket
you would vote Republican if the idea of a laborer making above mimium wage almost causes you to have a stroke.
You would vote Republican because you like the idea of illegals crossing in to Arizona and Texas and californa even though Arizona and texas.
You would vote Republican because when 9 11 happened you bought a American flag bumper sticker on your import.
You would vote Republican if you think a country with no factories and trade imblance is still a super power.
you would vote republican if you think that a guy working in plant for foriegn company at 14 dollars is an hour is a good thing.
You would vote Republican if you think those foriegn owned factories will stay in the states when big 3 go under

you're obviously a retard, as exhibited by this and ever other post you make. aside from being nearly understandable jumbles of words that incomprehensibly pass as a coherent thought to you, the bolded text especially irritates me. why do you think that only rich people can/should/want to be republican? how do the two even begin to equate? reread this thread and my posts in it for a glimpse at what the republican party actually stands for, you ignorant jackass.
