Pres Bush has never faced the horrible economic conditions that Reagan faced. The country was in a deep recession in 1981 because of the lousy leadership of PresCarter and the Cold War was still raging world wide and a threat to world peace.
I support PresBush in his efforts fighting international terrorism and believe his tax cuts have been a positive move. But devaluing the Presidency of Ronald Reagan should not be the goal of conservatives and Republican's, and PresBush would be the first to agree with that. After all, Reagan's achievements and accomplishments are part of the historical record and PresBush has tried to emulate Reagan's Presidency in many ways.
Fair enough, it wasn't my intention to devalue Reagan. I just don't think his record can be used to devalue Bush either.
