Why is the economy tanking after nearly 8 years of Republican supply side economics?

[gregm]

The poverty rate has increased, inflation adjusted median wages are down, the national debt has almost doubled in size, the stock market is down, the dollar is very weak, and the cost of everything has gone up tremendously.

How about Republicans take some personal responsibility for their failed policies?
Oh I forgot. It's NEVER Republicans fault. They always come up with some selective EXCUSE. Every president is dealt his own unique challenges. It is up to him to meet it.
Don't tread,

Democrats in 1993 raised taxes and passed pay as you go rules that eventually led to balancing the budget. By balancing the budget, you fight against inflation (something Repubs have avoided). They also increased spending on eduation and job training.
mt pelio,

Almost every Republican today calls himself a conservative. Just because they end up total failures does not give YOU the right to take away what they call themselves.

Bush = McCain = conservatives
