| Bush Record similar to Reagan, but not Popularity! |
| 2005-10-31 |
| The shadow of Ronald Reagan hovers over the conservative Republican revolt against President Bush, with hard-core conservatives saying Bush does not measure up to the standard set by their hero. ... But, if you study the records of these two presidents, you have to wonder what the hubbub is about. Looking with a "Reagan-esque" eye at basic issues of taxes, spending and the size of government, you would conclude Bush is no worse than Reagan and in some ways a lot better. If I remember correctly, Reagan was not idolized (by many)until long after he left office. History judges presidents, not pollsters, and NOT the MSM. Topics included: Taxes Spending Defense Entitlements Vetoes Budget deficit Lawrence J. Haas was communications director to the Office of Management and Budget under President Clinton. Which is interesting, considering his subjects! |
