"Economically, President Obama’s administration has outperformed President Reagan’s in all commonly watched categories. Simultaneously the current administration has reduced the deficit, which skyrocketed under Reagan. Additionally, Obama has reduced federal employment, which grew under Reagan (especially when including military personnel,) and truly delivered a “smaller government.” Additionally, the current administration has kept inflation low, even during extreme international upheaval, failure of foreign economies (Greece) and a dramatic slowdown in the European economy."

Stop posting garbage from liberal rags like...hold up...Forbes?

Judging by the lives of many I know, as well as the unemployment and labor force rates, this tells me we've chosen poorly when it comes to the "commonly watched categories" for determining economic success/recovery.

At some point, those aspects of the recovery come down to the people who make all the money deciding to hire people.

"People making all the money" don't hire people because people need jobs.

"People making all the money" don't hire people because people need jobs.

Yet they're the ones who create them. Do you blame Obama that people need jobs and people who have greatly benefited from the recovery aren't creating jobs?

Republican wish list fails to impress republicans

No

This recovery belongs to the republican congress

 

[TownieDeac]

Comparing it to Reagan isn't exactly a high bar.

That poll shows the ignorance of those being polled.

Best:

Ike
Truman
Clinton

Worst:

W
Nixon
Daddy Bush

Carter created peace between Israel/Egypt/Jordan. This alone puts him above many others.

LOL. If only all of those ignorant peasants were as informed and intelligent as you, good King RJ.

Seriously, small-government supply-side conservatives, what is your gripe about the current economy? Why are you not ejaculating daily at your prospects in this economy? This is what you wanted.

THANKS, OBAMA

 

[THE DEUCE]

Benghazi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama plainly sucks and belongs in Jimmy Carter and W country. He is not a leader...we traded in a guy who based everything on his guts for a guy who analyzes to the point of paralysis.

Both methodologies fail.

 

[ImTheCaptain]

what metrics do you use to measure Presidential Greatness, lectro?

By "decades" of ineptness you asshole.

If your point is that Obama is more of shill for Wall Street and the richest 10% of our nation than Reagan was, then I agree.
