You made both of these statements today. Which is true?
<<Better take an economics class, Del. The president has very little to do with the economy. It is Congress that has the power to spend, spend, spend. >>
<< Changes in the economy happen slowly, what Reagan instituted showed up years later, >>
Oh,I get it. Only when the president is a Republican do his policies have anything to do with the economy. It is really hard for you, and others here, to acknowledge that Clinton's policies were good for the economy, despite the facts. I just can't stand the double talk and constant laying of the blame on Democrats for all financial ills, and giving credit only to Republicans for good economic news. You are not being objective at all. Let me repeat! You need to hear it one more time. There was a great expansion in the number of government employees under Reagan. The deficit was quadrupled during the Reagan/Bush era. That was 12 years. The economy doesn't react that slowly.
Thank you President Clinton for giving us a surplus, and continuing to do a good job, despite unrelenting ridicule from wrong wing. BTW, I am not a Democrat or Republican. I'll vote for Jesse Ventura, if he runs.
