Best US President?

[Abbey Marie]

You're a liar. You dont even believe it yourself.



Hands down its George. No one is even close. The reasons are so many, least of which is he is the ONLY president to turn down the office knowing full well he was a shoe in. His integrity didnt allow him to be president again because he believed no one person should be leading the country for that long.

Have to agree with you, Luv. The more I learn about Washington, the more impressed I am. It's a shame that we as a country do not even have a holiday dedicated specifically to him anymore.

Yes, a prime rate of 21% under Pres Peanut, gas prices doubled overnight, Amercians held hostage for 444 days, Japan taking over the auto industry, and stagflation

and libs say how rotten the Bush economy is

Reagan turned it all around - even NY and CA voted for him in 04

you ignored my point and, instead, just spewed canned talking points! what a surprise!

Not canned talking points - facts

Peanut Carter was a miserable President and was soundly fired by the voters in 1980

[April15]

When Pres Reagan took over form Pres Peanut, the Us suffered with double digit inflation, double digit interest rates, and near double digit unemployment

The top tax rate was 70%

Pres Reagan cut taxes and unleashed the US economy. Revenues to the Federal government DOUBLED to over $1 trillion in eight years

People thanked Pres Reagan with a 49 state re-electionwin in 1984

What's wrong April - hate to see how a liberal President and a liberal Congress fucked up the nation, and it took a popular Conservative President to repair the damage

Well here we are the "sheep" in the republican part and No one has said Bush is the greatest. Yet the libs are yelling Clinton. Do none of them read history?????????? They can't think of a single other president of either party to vote for????

I lived through the four years of Pres Peanut. Mortgage rates in the double digit were common and a prime rate of 21%

It was so bad the Misery Index was invented

Reonal Reagan repaired the damage and put America back on her feet again

but "facts" that did not address the post of mine that you quoted. That is the issue. You really are like the guy on the right:

my post had to do with Reagan's deficit spending. Your reply had nothing to do with the deficit, but instead was talking about hostages and the prime rate. Canned talking points from someone unable to actually carry on a back and forth debate of any kind. Photosynthesis!!!!

Congress did the spending - not the President

Libs do hate to be reminded about how a liberal President and liberal Congress screwed America during the Peanut years

Reagan must not have been so bad - 49 state reelection win. Libs were soooooo depressed that night

But Pres Reagan did not spend one cent of taxpayer money. He did push the policies that saved us from the disaster known as Pres Peanut

Thanks for that.
EVERYTIME I read more about him, I am astonished.
One of the difficulties in naming a great presidental list, is if there are not tumultuous times, its hard to be great.
But during the revolution, many men had the chance to be great, (and women too!), but he certainly stood out.

What a lot of people also dont realize is that Thomas Paine was either the MOST instrumental, or second to Washington in the creation of our nation.

To truly understand the US history during that time, you have to do a LOT of reading into very detailed stuff.
