There is an orectic yearning for the good ole days of Reagan...

Shoot, I'd settle for Bush, or even Clinton.

Entrepreneurs are orectic for a president who will promote innovation, cut back on red tape, and just get the hell out of the way so that new businesses can be created. Their current cry is: “I built that, but “O” wrecked it.”

[SoothingDave]

O wrecked it?

O damn near killed it.

[thingumbob]

I always thought the biggest mistake Ronald Reagan ever made was choosing George H.W. Bush...he moved the party back to the center like an east coast RINO would.

However, I think Reagan had a chance to rub off a little on W,the son. At best he seemed to be half his dad and half Ronald Reagan in style....but his grammer and speech were abysmal and because of it he was always going to look like the doofis the media painted him as, just see Will Ferrell on Saturday Night Live, as a case in point.

In the meantime, my hope is that if Romney gets elected, the heir apparent, Ryan, will look and act more like Reagan if he should get a chance to be elected president.....as the cartoon implies. ...but of course there will never be another Reagan only look-a-likes.

[NeoCaveman]

Krugman and Friedmen are so orectic for Chinese central planning, yet they never look at the results.
