Conservatives question the sanity of those who spend all their time whining at their own side.

I'm curious. How much did discretionary spending increase during Reagan's tenure over the first five years versus how much it has increased under Bush.

And we all saw how Reagan's amnesty was one of the worst failures of his term. How has Bush done better than Reagan at addressing illegal immigration?

One can still support Bush over the Democrats while still questioning the specifics of Bush's agenda. Those who wish that it be all or nothing offer nothing.

Good post.

And of course Reagan was worse than Bush on illegal immigration and spending under Reagan relative to GDP was equivalent to what we have today.
