Ronald Reagan was just worst all around... (none / 0)
I mean, some conservatives have commented on my comments on youtube, and the thing that they ALL have said was...  "he was trying to fix the massive deficit that was left behind by the Carter administration" to which I respond by saying... "that's exactly what Barack Obama IS doing right now".  But most of them seem to disregard that claim and go on talking about socialism and government corruption and the government controlling the private sector to which violates a whole bunch of laws (which they made up out of their asses).

It's funny, they don't want to admit the mistakes that Reagan made and it's affects that it's had on the country today.  Throughout Reagan's entire funeral, I was so pissed.  The bastard should've been in the Hudson river as a funeral gesture.  Anyways, it seems conservatives who support Reagan are just unwilling to accept the facts and think more clearly.

I don't claim to be right all the time, but when I am wrong, I will admit it and try to come to a common consensus about a given topic.  I will not disregard my ideological values but, when you're wrong, you're wrong.

Facts don't lie (none / 1)
Unemployment numbers from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics

1980 = 7.1% (Carter's last full year in office)
1981 = 7.6% (Reagan's first year in office)
1982 = 9.7% (Reagan's first full year in office)
1983 = 9.6% (Regan's last full year in office 1st term)
1985 = 7.2% (Reagan's first full year in office 2nd term)
1988 = 5.5% (Reagan's last full year)
1992 = 7.5% (Bush41's last full year in ofice)
1993 = 6.9% (Clinton's first year in office)
1994 = 6.1% (Clinton's first full year in office)
2000 = 4.0% (Clinton's last full year in office)

Carter left Reagan a 7.1% unemployment rate. Reagan drove that rate up to 9.6% in his first term before bringing it down to 5.5% in time to hand off to Bush(41). Bush(41) ran it back up to 7.5% before handing it off to Clinton. Clinton brought it back down to 4.0% before handing it off to Bush(43) - who of course like any good Republican ran it right back up to where it is today.

lol... I used some of the statistics against him, the person on youtube... guess what he did, he blocked me:-) lol, that's happened a lot.

One time a guy was complaining about Obama's birth certificate, so I laid down some fact on him and next thing I know my comment was deleted and I was blocked from his channel.  Some people can't take facts.  Some people will call that ignorance, I call it stupidity.

Obama's birth certificate (none / 0)
Of course the black helicopter fanatics won't listen to reason but the obvious answer to that question is; don't you think, if Obama really was foreign born, the RNC might have done something about it before the 2008 elections?

or... (none / 0)
after 6 months of Obama being officially in office or even go back 8 months, when Obama was President-elect, that someone would've realized that Obama's birth certificate was a fake?  logic doesn't fit in those peoples minds.
