I think you are confused, David. The President proposes and the Congress disposes. Reagans budgets were always classified as Dead on Arrival by the democratic congress. The Congress controls the pursestrings. The democratic congress was very loose in spending our tax dollars in the 80's. That continued until the Republicans took over in 1994 and they brought some restraint into the picture. The people who control the money are Congress. Clinton received a giant, although frustrating for him, blessing for his time in office thanks to a Republican Congress placing some control on spending. If democrats would have been in control we would probably have many more new spending programs and no budget surplus.
