43. After Reagans tax cuts

Mon Nov 12, 2012, 10:51 AM

Nov 2012

The Reagan administration realized that the policy was only causing massive deficits, and started raising taxes. Even Reagan, Alzheimer's and all, rejected Reaganomics.

Grover Norquist is a flipping weirdo. He always has a look on his face like he is straining to take a shit.

Republicans have an ideology problem. It does their thinking for them, and it just doesn't work. They will NEVER let go of it. They will always believe the problem is that NOT ENOUGH ideology has been applied. Ideologues are dangerous and stupid, but not necessarily in that order.
