Neither Bush was a Republican in the true sense of the word. They are both phonies. As far as the economy, memories are short and they elected Bush 2. I do blame the Republicans for thrusting these two incompetents on the US. If you can criticize Reagan for anything, it would have to be allowing the neocon spawn to get a foothold. On the other hand I blame the Democrats for shoving Obama on us. I could have put up with Hillary more than him.
I don't see how Reagan was a Republican /Conservative when he almost tripled the national debt Bush was Republican like with his tax cuts and all his policies benefiting the rich and the corporations. Hilary's attempt at health care reform was more radical then Obamas.
Bush Jr was an idiot and Reagan didn't seem to bright either.Both were puppets for the super rich although I think Reagan was a good President,but not the god the right makes him out to be

If he was able to assume the office of US President without being eligible he's much smarter then I thought
