the foolish path our republicans are following

What the national party of the right are following seems to be the path that our present administration wants to follow!
No one can rationally explain the Republican Party's affinity for Ronald Reagan. They needed a hero and Ronnie came riding by on a white horse at just the right time. He lassoed their hearts and captured their loyalties.

Unfortunately, it is a false and destructive legacy. The reason we are so far in debt today can be directly traced to the low taxes and big spending philosophy of Ronald Reagan. He believed if you could spend enough, then there would be nothing left for social programs. He hated big government. Present-day Republicans still believe this and have taken our country to the edge of bankruptcy and collapse. Worse still, they want to continue Reagan's ideas.

Lapue seems to believe in this philosophy which is based on falsehoods. REAGAN BROKE CALIFORNIA-THEN HE TURNED THIS NATION FROM THE RICHEST NATION IN HISTORY TO THE LARGEST DEBTOR NATION! HE DIDN'T BALANCE THE BUDGET HE BUSTED IT! HIS VICE PRESIDENT BUSH WAS AN EX CIA MIS-INFORMATION SPECIALIST! THEY BOUGHT INTO DEFICIT'S DIDN'T MATTER (SPEND NOW LET YOUR GRANDKIDS PAY LATER)
WELL LATER HAS ARRIVED! AND SO HAVE THE DEBT COLLECTORS!
