Of the last 6 recessions, 5 were under republicans. Not a very good track record if you ask me. It took democrats to bring them to an end.

First of all, I am a registered democrat. So, I can say this and not be taken as a conservative jerk. You say it took dems to get us out of recession. Do you mean such people as Bill Clinton, who signed NAFTA and killed our factories and agriculture?!?! Quick fix, but now we are paying for it. Whether they are Dem or Rep, none of them know how to help us "normal" people... because they are all rich and don't have a clue about what working for a living really means.

I can remember back to Carter. He did nuthin!
Reagan more or less brought in "welfare", which has so many people stealing it that many who need it can't get it.
Bush Sr. reminded me a lot of Carter: nuthin, except go blow up Iraq.
Clinton signed our souls (economically) away with NAFTA.
GW Bush... well we all know that one.

Dems and Reps alike have put us where we are.
