Get real. The House, where spending bills originate was always controlled by the Dems. while Reagan was President. In fact Dem hegemony over Congress and budget matters continued into Clitnon's first term.

What would have done if I had not found that info for you?

Oh, just make up more lies.

With those increases, Reagan destroyed your spiritual homeland, that People's Paradise, the Soviet Union.

I can see why you're so pissed.

<<Look at the numbers carefully. The best combination was Clinton + Dem Congress. The worst was Reagan + Republican Senate.>>

Yep, Reagan did spend a bunch during his early years. But it was spending that needed spent. Carter had let the military get into horrible shape. Reagan's spending gave us the military able to walk all over Iraq. Carter's army couldn't fly 6 helicopters across a stretch of Iran.
