How does insisting that that apples and oranges have identical reactions to one discrete input respect the rules of logic OR economics, sonny? Reagan did not follow an insane chimpanzee - he did not FOLLOW the very AUTHOR of his challenges. The man he followed had already done half of his work for him. Tell me, did Bush's economy create 2.5 million jobs per year? Would you like to review the chart?

Reagan was not handed a big, round, cartoon bomb with a lit fuse, kissed on the mouth, and left in a cloud of dust by a cartoon character.

But if it is your contention that the Keynesian stimulus Reagan employed didn't work for him - you ARE insisting they have identical outcomes, are you not? - then I'm willing to pretend along with you that Reagan's numbers were very like Obama's. You know me - always eager to keep the peace, always amenable to making an accommodation.

My the Lord be with you.
