Have people forgotten how messed up things were when Obama took office? [W:635/789]]

Re: Have people forgotten how messed up things were when Obama took office? [W:635/78

Go ahead and prove me wrong -- it should be very easy. Show me the Republicans who have been elected in the last four or six years who promote immigration reform/amnesty, tax hikes, payroll tax hikes, eliminating the tax preference for cap gains and dividends, ... that should do for now. How about showing my just one Republican who has won who supported even ONE of those positions? :popcorn2:

I have and continue to show you wrong by posting the Obama record. Now of course you ignore the campaign promises regarding the economy but I guess what you distort that someone did 24-30 years ago is more important. Just to remind you here is a little of the Obama record

thats an awefully loaded question,isnt it:)

It's just a selection of things that Reagan did that no Republican could do today. :shrug:

I have not and continue to divert, obscure, obstruct and move the goal posts whenever I'm slapped down.

Fixed that for you.

You really need to fix yourself and stop "correcting" that which you disagree with and prove my statements wrong which you have never done

Reagan isn't the issue here but continue to ignore the Reagan results while distorting them and giving only partial truths out of context. You continue to do that as you continue to play your games. GW Bush cut tax rates for all taxpayers and that is what Reagan did leading to strong economic growth taking the GDP from 9.9 trillion to 14.4 trillion including the recession of 2008. People keeping more of what they earn is a threat to liberalism and supporters of liberalism don't appear smart enough to understand that as they perpetulate the expansion of the nanny state

The whole truth is as stated: Reagan could not get elected today.


The whole truth is if the MSM vetted Obama, he wouldnt be able to get a voter ID card..

This is one of the few times you've made any sense, given that Reagan has been dead since 2004..

Of course the Constitution would not allow it either.

Sure he would. $10 says that after all the voter ID laws are passed, O'Keefe makes a film where he proves how easy it is to get one. Voter ID is only the start for him.

Guess what... he isn't either!!!

You libs can't seem to focus, or grasp this basic concept...

Reagan was president in the 80s... Bush was president in 2000s...

Currently Obama is president... and he's got a $1.4T annual deficit, and raised the debt to $16T...

and the Republican candidate is R-Money... who knows how to fix messed up situations like that... because it's what he does best...

He took a $2.9B deficit and turned it into a $2B surplus as Gov of MA
He saved the olympics from its financial shortfals and turned em into one of the most profitable olympics ever
He even saved a former corporation he worked for from its own hard times...

He did each of these for the salary of $1...

We need a president who is good with money, and that we know isn't just gonna use the White House to pad their own pockets, as the Obama's have done...

Perhaps you need help comprehending his quote. He is saying that IF REAGAN were alive today...but of course you knew that, didn't you.

RWR would have a far easier time getting nominated by the GOP than JFK or HHH would from the dems

But of course Ronald Reagan is not alive today and he is only parroting the words of this goofy President. BHO is making all of his followers look stupid.

I know that GM could not have gone through reorganization without the bailout. They would instead have gone through liquidation and their factories would be collecting rust while a million+ Americans collected unemployment.

See... this is the difference between fact and opinion... you treat it like a fact, yet its an opinion...

My guess is, seeing as Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Hyundai, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Suzuki, Isuzu, Nissan, Volkswagen, Ford, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Jaguar, Peugeot, MacLaren, Volvo, and every other major car company on earth made it through the recession without Obama's assistance... that GM could've as well...

And as far as surviving a liquidation, SAAB is doing it... how could GM not, since GM is several separate groups... they wouldve each been able to sell individually...

but that's just my opinion...

my opinion, is that the government couldve even gone that route... and then changed their opinion on it later... as in, if no one bought them out of liquidation, then the government couldve structured something, but instead, they chose a "pre-emptive strike" against the free market...

and that part is fact...
