... by charging fees to users
So Reagan thought taxpayers should continue to pay for the nation's waterways, airports, airways, ports and other facilities maintained by the Government.

How is that 'you didn't build that'? Without taxpayer funding, it didn't get built.

Of course, Obama did not say that either. It's just campaign nonsense - just like "I like to fire people" was.

BTW: Congrats on your prize.

I guess you're right. Reagan asking for more money for providing government services and support and Obama asking for more money for providing government services and support is a pretty bad comparison. What would be a better one?

Then it wasn't what Reagan was saying, either. What did Reagan mean when he asked for people to pay for things that government provided for them then.

I'm sorry you can't see they are similiar. Comprehension failure, indeed.

This has to be the most idiotic thread opener in a long time.

Here is the difference between Regan and Obama

Reagan - added 15 million jobs his first term as president

Obama - added 15 million people onto Food Stamps

The sad part is Obama added $6 trillion in new debt, and he sill forced 15 million onto Food Stamps, and created a fifty year high for Americans living in poverty.

Only Obama could have record high $6 trillion in deficit spending over four years, and still force people into poverty, decline the total labor force, create more months with over 8% unemployment then the last sixty years combined, and squeak out a pathetic 1.3% GDP growth last quarter.

I hope you're a woman. Otherwise calling me Honey is pretty gay. Never mind. You probably are a woman. Keep telling me sweet nothings, sweety.
