Obama Press Conference Review

[DiveCon]

Wrong.

The Republicans controlled the Senate during 6 of Bush's 8 years,

I was reffering to Bush I, as should have been obvious.

and Reagan's budgets were all passed by a combination of all Republican votes combined with a few Dixiecrats.

HA HA HA HA HA

So Reagan used his mad mind control skillz to make Tip oneil do his bidding, did he?

more proof that chris is a moron

Tip ONeil was not a Southern Dixiecrat.....

 

[Xenophon]

Tip ONeil was not a Southern Dixiecrat.....

Yes, and 'Dixiecrats' and pubs didn't control the house ansd senate either.

You don't appear to have a clue about that era, do you.

You don't appear to have any facts.

David Stockman, Ronald Reagan's budget director, admitted that the 1981 tax cut was a Trojan horse to lower taxes for the rich...

“ The hard part of the supply-side tax cut is dropping the top rate from 70 to 50 percent—the rest of it is a secondary matter. The original argument was that the top bracket was too high, and that's having the most devastating effect on the economy. Then, the general argument was that, in order to make this palatable as a political matter, you had to bring down all the brackets. But, I mean, Kemp-Roth was always a Trojan horse to bring down the top rate.[41]

[Zoom-boing]

Why are you so obcessed with trying to blame 'reagan/bush' for something both parties are 100% guilty of?

Bullshit.

Reagan brought in "supply side economics" whereby we could supposedly cut taxes for the rich and increase spending at the same time, and somehow everything would magically be ok. Well, it didn't work out that way. When you cut taxes and increase spending, all you do is raise the National Debt, which is exactly what Reagan and Bush did. Clinton came in and raised taxes on the rich and cut spending in his first term, and we ended up with a surplus and the National Debt actually went down with respect to GDP. Even Jimmy Carter reduced the National Debt with respect to GDP. Now because of Bush the Lesser's huge deficits, and Phil Gramm's deregulation of Wall Street, Obama is facing a disaster of Biblical proportions.

Isn't that how Obama's stimulus plan is laid out? Will the results differ just because he's a Democrat?

 

[Meister]

Bullshit.

It's not bullshit it's a fact.

I bet you don't realize the democrats controlled both houses during both Reagan & Bush's terms, do you?

The house and senate control the purse string, the Potus can only ask and approve, not legislate.

Learn how the system works or be doomed to be made a fool of.

Wrong.

The Republicans controlled the Senate during 6 of Bush's 8 years, and Reagan's budgets were all passed by a combination of all Republican votes combined with a few Dixiecrats.

Chris, it was the last two years of the Bush Administration that the democrats had both the House and the Senate...funny how it was this period of time that the economy went to hell, and gas prices rose...you dumb shit!

Nah - too easy.

You don't appear to have any facts.

I have all the facts, you have no idea what you are talking about.

Both parties take the credit and blame for the current state of the Union, you already tried spinning like a top, and it didn't work for you.

'Dixiecrats' your ass, DEMOCRATS controlled both houses when Reagan was POTUS, learn it.

Live it.

But most important, UNDERSTAND it.

Stop trying to shell out 'blame' for something what you support was just as guilty of creating.

that is a difficult task for Chrissy Lewinsky.

 

[Xenophon]

Yes, that well known 'Dixiecrat' Tip O'Neil was just so eiger to support Reagan.

 

[Chris]

Whan, whan, whan,,.....

Reagan and Bush created the debt with useless military spending and tax cuts for the rich. Reagan's own budget director, Phil Stockman, called the tax cuts a "trojan horse" , that allowed them to lower taxes for the rich.

Reagan's budgets, which he brought before Congress, were passed by all the Republicans in Congress and a few Southern Dixiecrats.

These are the facts.

of course they wanted lower taxes for the rich
they were already paying too much
yet with the tax cuts, the burden of taxes shifted more to the rich
explain that one, moron

 

[Chris]

It didn't shift enough.

Soak the rich.

 

[DiveCon]

It didn't shift enough.

Soak the rich.

so, the top 10% paying 80% of the taxes isnt enough?


then you wonder why people think you are a moron


btw, those rich you want to "soak", are people you buy things from, and that pay you
yeah, soak them so they pass on that soaking to YOU

very smart

that's a hard pill for chrissy lewinsky to uh "swallow".

 

[Xenophon]

Whan, whan, whan,,.....

Don't cry, lots of people are like you, they don't have a clue how government works.

Reagan and Bush created the debt with useless military spending and tax cuts for the rich.

An immpossibility as Presidents don't write laws, that is the job of Congress, this is the whistling you keep hearing as it goes over your head.

Reagan's own budget director, Phil Stockman, called the tax cuts a "trojan horse" , that allowed them to lower taxes for the rich.

Enacted and voted for by Democrats.

Reagan's budgets, which he brought before Congress, were passed by all the Republicans in Congress and a few Southern Dixiecrats.

Democrats controlled both houses, if Tip didn't want to see a bill, it didn't appear.

As I said before, you don't have clue one how government really works.
