Reagan was a true American and by far the best President in a century.
Reagan was an illiterate s***head whose fiscal irresponsibility (successfully continued by the Bushes) was a foundation for the financial mess we're in.

lol. Funny, the debt has increased by $4.5 trillion since the Dems gained control of Congress, less than 4 years ago, more than it increased in the previous 10 years, yet the Rep. Presidents are considered irresponsible fiscally. Go figure.
Any CBO "analysis" is not only subjective but frequently wrong. For example, the cost estimate for Obamacare has increased significantly since its first estimate. I've not even suggested that I support this bill, why would I attempt to defend it?
The Price bill? You don't defend it? So what you're defending is the Republicans game of pretending to cry like little girls that their loser busywork wasn't accepted by the responsible people in the room.
0bama had super majorities in both houses for a year, and he is only one vote shy in the senate. so what we are seeing is the after affects of 0bama having everything he needs to present his vision and agenda, and we do not like what we see.
OMG, because it isn't completed yet?! Don't be disingenuous and pretend that the Rs have ever tried to work bipartisanly with Obama. or maybe you've got that famous Republican short memory.
"If we're able to stop Obama on [health care reform], it will be his Waterloo. It will break him." - Jim DeMint
That's their only goal. They have no ideas and no interest in creating any. They do not have your best interests in mind. Why don't you understand that?

They have drunk the Fox News Kool-Aid. You're arguing with zombies. It's pointless.
The massive tax cuts that created massive budget deficits and later doubling the national debt are all very well documented events. It's okay though... I realize that faux news always leaves out these "unimportant details" so I didn't expect you to be aware of that.
"Republicans used to believe that prosperity depended upon the regular balancing of accounts—in government, in international trade, on the ledgers of central banks and in the financial affairs of private households and businesses, too. But the new catechism, as practiced by Republican policymakers for decades now, has amounted to little more than money printing and deficit finance—vulgar Keynesianism robed in the ideological vestments of the prosperous classes. This approach has not simply made a mockery of traditional party ideals. It has also led to the serial financial bubbles and Wall Street depredations that have crippled our economy. More specifically, the new policy doctrines have caused four great deformations of the national economy, and modern Republicans have turned a blind eye to each one."
"Where are Republicans really wrong right at the moment? In proposing to maintain the Bush-Cheney administration's massive tax breaks for the wealthiest Americans."
"IF there were such a thing as Chapter 11 for politicians, the Republican push to extend the unaffordable Bush tax cuts would amount to a bankruptcy filing. The nation’s public debt — if honestly reckoned to include municipal bonds and the $7 trillion of new deficits baked into the cake through 2015 — will soon reach $18 trillion. That’s a Greece-scale 120 percent of gross domestic product, and fairly screams out for austerity and sacrifice. It is therefore unseemly for the Senate minority leader, Mitch McConnell, to insist that the nation’s wealthiest taxpayers be spared even a three-percentage-point rate increase."

Yeah right. Only the greatest, strongest president in modern history who oversaw the greatest expansion of revenue to the Treasury.......taxes, spurred by economic/job growth.
I mean, DO you realize the democrats have increased the debt from $8.5 Trillion to almost $14 Trillion...in just 3 1/2 years? You do know that...right?
