I'll go peek, chicken lips - but I already know you played cook-the-books by two facts: 1. You're using 1 year to describe Carter's economy, and 2. It wasn't his last year in office - it was the election years when Reagan was never president - the year Carter made his budget two months before the ...

Not throwing rocks here either. IN my corporate days, I have seen many an exec on the way out due to failure try to claim success with numbers. Only numbers that matter are bottom line numbers. Given enough google time, one can contradict any number or graph posted on this forum, but it never cha...

So, nothin then? Thanks. Ctiminy. That's two who cannot refute an iota of my thesis, hiding behind vaguely implied anecdotal evidence which he hasn't even the temerity to harrumph into a fully formed lie. Well done - two down. DAMIT! I had grown fond of this lantern! ANGRY FACE EMOTICON!...

I didn't need to make a claim that your source was partisan, I used your own source to kick your *** with the facts. Your link shows that Carter took an economy growing at over 5%, and handed it off at -0.2% Reagan took that -0.2% and left it at 4.2%....

So, you make no claim that my source is partisan - just that they are not entirley political in their reportage? And you post no alternative numbes. You do not disagree with my numbers, AT ALL. You merely make weak attempts to mock my source - again, not by any claim of partisanship and not by any ...

Anecdotes are fun and all, and I don't know you personally so I'm not trying to be a dick, but what you experienced individually is not indicative of a President's overall success. All I'm saying is when inflation is higher than growth, you're not really doing that well. Maybe your personal acco...

Again, I go to results, GDP statistics under either one have no meaning. Results do, so Reagan wins easily on that. To ozzie, no politician has ever been all roses....

I love someone as uninformed as you, claiming others don't have the "experience" to debate. I just showed you the GDP numbers for Carter and Reagan, do you dispute those numbers? No. All you can do is launch another ignorant personal attack....

Because I know you're my age and lived through the gas lines, I'll stand beside you on that. Golfboy has no such experience. He relies on soundbites. Defend the little **** if you want. I know for a fact that neither Carter nor Reagan was all hearts, flowers and good times. The state of the union...

Simply look at the results of each administration, then talk agenda. Carter damned near took us under with incompetency, not too mention damaging the American spirit more than any POTUS to date at that time. He has now been surpassed by barry for that title....
