Now, four years later, after implementing the policies he (Reagan) | promised, the economic situation has greatly improved. Why shouldn't | his administration take credit for it? He's responsible for it. We're | talking reality here. Not politicking(sp?). | | Robert We're talking bu**s*it here. Reagan has NOT implemented the policies he promised. He has implemented the inverse of the policies he promised. As I recall, his major indictment of Carter was the incredible deficits Carter ran up. (A legacy from the Ford and Nixon administrations which the gentleman from Georgia was unable to cope with effectively.) Now, Reagan has run up a deficit larger than anything Carter would have dared to run up. Of course, since Reagan is a better actor, and a better leader because of it, he can convince a lot of people who ought to know better that he has actually fulfilled his promises about the economy.
