OK now you are asking somewhat serious questions rather then defending false statements. This is an improvement.

I've been asking these questions from the get go.


Why have debt levels gone up under Reagan and Bush II?

Debt levels have gone up under these presidents (and every other president in my lifetime) primarily do to increasing spending.


Debt as a % of GDP went up under Nixon, Reagan and Bush. Under Carter, Clinton, Kennedy and LBJ, debt as a % of GDP went down. In some years under those presidents, the total debt also went down.

Why has debt as a % of GDP gone up under three GOP presidents........significantly under two of them?

Why do they thwart our progress in reducing debt levels?

An odd question. You can't reduce debt levels by increasing them.


In this case, progress means making the debt go down, or at least not go up as fast. But, of course, you knew that.

LAre they anti American?

No


Are you sure? It doesn't look like the GOP is doing what's best for this country.
