The Reagan administration was quite possibly one of the most corrupt in our recent American history.

Funny how people that KNOW NOTHING about the role of the HOUSE and it being the one that sets the purse strings, always use the President as the one that is supposedly responsible for the budget.
Why do we NEVER see a breakdown of who is controlling the CONGRESS when these things are broke down?
Never mind, let us keep blaming the President. Not the Congress that since Jan 2007 has increased the debt from $8.5 Trillion to the current debt of $14 Trillion.
40% of the Debt has been created over the last 4 years
under Pelosi and Reid!
Now, OP why do you not show us a break down of the debt when the House is controlled by the Dems and when it is controlled by the Repubs.
Or would that show something that you do not want to see?
HMMMMMMMMMMM?
