Obama is the anti-Reagan. Obama is all doom and gloom. Reagan travel to successful businesses, like Harley who had just made a come back. Obama is pathetic.

As i understand it the republicans fought the new deal tooth and nail in the 30s. As i remember it the republicans were the No Nothings in the 50s saying no to any and all legislation including civil rights while offering nothing but balance budget as and end not a means and a bellicose foreign policy which blamed the dems for the loss of everything and supported rt wing despots against real and imagined communist threats. Yes, they did. Ironically, they also didn't want to go into WW II. Clare Luce Booth complained about it all the way through the war. She was the Taliban insurgency of the 1940s. You know how with children, you tell them to do one thing and they do the opposite, or if you offer them a piece of candy, they want the one they can't have. That's how Republicans operate.
