The Russians are Coming - The Wolfs are Coming

Reagan inherited the malaise of the Carter admin zvug. I guess you don't remember gas doubling in price, homes out of reach due to interest rates at 20%, or even the deflated attitude of the country after Carter's ineptness.

But see,  pacedog has stated the other side of the Reagan debate and stated it well.

The only problem is I don't know what to believe.  I don't know if Reagan was real or was a phony.  
I do know he was a professional actor.  So that makes it tougher for me to accept him being real.

Duke Wayne and Dutch Reagan.

Come on. We're supposed to believe they epitomize the American war hero. But neither ever served a day in the trenches. If I was pacedog, especially pacedog, that alone would make me skeptical.

The last three decades have seen a monumental decline in virtually every qualitative measurement in America. This can be directly linked to the conservative political paradigm that was ushered into dominance starting with the election of Ronald Reagan in 1980. Stagnant wages, rising costs, decreasing benefits, ballooning national debt, and a loss of freedoms have been the keynote of the Reagan Era. - See more at:

Here's an example:



And another:



And I've recently posted something similar to this, but here it is again:



Since the election of Reagan and the conservatives in 1980, America has been on a downward spiral. The charts above are just the tip of the iceberg, but demonstrate in no uncertain terms that we are on the wrong track in America. From turning the United States into a police state with the highest incarceration rate in the world, to waging class warfare on the poor so the rich can get richer, to massively ballooning the national debt, the Reagan Legacy is disastrous. - See more at: http://newsjunkiepost.com/2011/02/06/the-disastrous-legacy-of-ronald-reagan-in-charts/#sthash.4f4K47Aw.dpuf

I don't think I every heard a single word about Bush's vacations or the cost of them. The whole subject was eclipsed by the cost of the wars and the "Bush tax breaks". And 9/11.

oh wow, so now we find another republican to blame everything on. what is it wearing out the bush blame? I mean my god those perfect little angels of mercy the lieberals are.
