From Doug Ross @ Journal: BOOM: Chart Illustrates the Difference Between Competent President and Incompetent Ideologue
 
False equivalency.

Ask the poor, longknife.

And ask them why they vote against the candidates you love.
 
The validity of an economic recovery can only be measured by comparing net job growth in an arbitrary timeframe versus a different recovery a few decades ago?

I can't even tell what timeframe that graph is using, like when does it consider the start of a recovery and why 29 months.
 
Foreign Trade shipping jobs overseas...Clinton/GW/Obama
No Border Security...GW/Obama
Business Visas...GW/Obama
 

Reagan's 'recovery' was based on several things.

1. Paul Volcker basically solved the stagflation problem with the deliberate recession.
2. Reagan didn't face the same problems Obama faced.
3. UE during Reagan's first term hovered around 7%. It only went down when the government started spending like crazy.
4. Ultimately Reagan's economy went bust several times and required multiple bailouts.
5. The deficit and debt that he left for George HW Bush was so bad, that Bush was required to break a big promise of his campaign and raise taxes, assuring him a one term presidency.
