"I'm not on board, but if you ask the CBO as of Last Wednesday, it would be a good sign. The claims that it would grow the deficit have been pummeled and it is clear now it will lower the deficit."

 

No....The CBO didn't say anything like that.  They said that the new calculations, after the SCOTUS decision, show that Obamacare should cost 5% less than we previously thought, but that is not "lowering the deficit".  And the reduction in cost is only because the new calculations show that less people will be covered, and that more states will now opt out of the plan.   I don't see how that bodes well for the Obumbler?

Allow me to utilize a page from your playbook.

 

I didn't say it was so, I said they said it was so.

But thank you for not reading it the way it was written and missing the sarcastic point, it will now be cleare for you. I don't like obama. Nor his mandate and don't trust much of anything Any gov. office has to say even if it wasn't under Bush. since they are like the weathermen. Or that Romney is exactly like obama.

But I'd guess that were still quoting the Bush mentality.

I personally don't see Reagan as one of the greatest, he did too much damage to be counted.  Signing the bill that started the bankruptcy of Social Security to begin with.  Substantially reinforcing the Industrial/Military complex as another.

 

Obama is, so far far above the level of Reagan.  Reagan was a good President, however.

 

Now we fight.

 

Reagan actually stood for the strength of this nation both at our borders and our savings accounts. If you consider that he didn't get impeached for Iran Contra, and the S&L scandal. It wasn't luck. It might be that if obama were to get a second term he might rise above some. But never Reagan. Obama isn't a great president nor a particularly good one. But I will say that no president in our history took office with more to deal with than any other in our short history. Two endless monstrously expensive wars, the worst economic disaster in almost a century. Out of control immigration, The troubles with Iran, North Korea, huge energy bills, highest prices of everything in forty years, middle east fighting and the most useless congress in thirty years, not to mention the mess left by that taxless, job killer, thoughtless, maniacal mentality of his predecessor. I guess it would have been tough for even Reagan to fix any of this mess. Which is why I voted for McCain. He had/has the mind and drive to whip congress as needed but not obama. He's no worse than his challenger but far from the guy you seem to see as such a hero.

Gingrich would have been a better choice for the uber right wingers.

Where oh where have the Reagan years gone.
