let compare apples to apples shall we? yes reagan wanted to close loopholes, and did, as well as lowering taxes. obama wants to close loopholes, but raise taxes at the same time. one of the taxes obama wants to raise is the capital gains tax which will hurt the economy, not help.

It's apples to apples, because Reagan raised taxes too when he realized he had cut too much and the debt was out of control (the debt tripeled during his presidency), but even after those raises, our taxes today are still lower than Reagan's rates. If any of the "R" nominees said the things Reagan said, they would be called RINOs. Sad, but true.

Searching "Reagan tax increases" refutes (for the hardcore, refudiates) that statement.
Why do you lefties never show a full clip in context?
