THE LOS ANGELES TIMES COMPARES DUTCH REGAN AND OBAMA

THAT IS LIKE COMPARING APPLES AND ORANGES: There really is no comparison because they were in office in such different times. When Dutch was president he took over a country that was the richest most powerful nation in the world. There was plenty of public money to squander and steal.
Dr.Obama is President of country that looks like it just walked out of a prisoner of war camp. There isnt much left of it. He cant just spend his way out of trouble like Dutch did.
The L A Times points to the passage of Dr.Obama's financial reform legislation as a great achievment. It is really totally meaningless. The financial reform package is like someone going out and buying a fire alarm after their house burned down.
Obama's health care package maybe successful if it really does cut health care costs but its still way to early to call it a success.
Basically Dr.Obama has been a weak President and a poor decession maker.
