Name a "Failed Republican Economic Policy"
Please ...
The only significant policies I can think of are tax cuts ... which increased revenue, and deregulation in lending ... but the lending problem is such a mix of failed bipartisan policies, I can't place blame on any one group here.
I am not as well versed in economic policy as someone like Rainmaker III (LOL!!), so I need some help here.

RE: Name a "Failed Republican Economic Policy"
other than allowing deregulation, it would have to be NCLB. I know that was Teddy's baby, but Bush pushed it, then forgot about it.
I know you asked for economic policy, but since NCLB was not funded, I lump it in there. It placed the burden on the state, to fund the changes.

Yes... his first health care reform... I forgot about that.
From what I can tell, his true Republican economic policy was a success, and his RINO, dem wannabe policies have failed.

Excellent one tiny. Bush did get this socialist ball rolling.

Either something is wrong with your link, or my firewall is filtering it. There was nothing in the body of the page.
