OK, I agree that the higher spending, which was one of his (and congress', but I guess everyone wants a single person to blame) budget decisions, did decrease growth by the end of the decade, if not before. Also, while it wasn't the cause of the recession, it left the government in worse shape to deal with the bad times when they came.
