Thanks, great article.

It always kills me that so many people consider FDR such a great President.

Imagine a current president trying to do what he did? They would find it pretty hard to pull off confiscating gold from citizens. The spirit of blind obedience to authority is dead in the USA, even among tards.

I haven’t agreed with much of what you’ve said lately, but I agree (mostly) with this post.

The sticking point is the blind obedience. Maybe not to what is perceived as authority, but there seem to be plenty who blindly follow some sort of authority. Who is pulling the antifa strings? How do you explain the Clinton fans still defending her in the face of so many obvious crimes? (My explanation is willful ignorance. Or maybe just garden variety ignorance.)

These people follow blindly. But their leader is not “traditional authority”. Joke’s on them. They’ve just substituted one authority figure for a different one.

“It always kills me that so many people consider FDR such a great President.”

I recall an episode of MASH where Major Winchester stated: ‘We had to live through FOUR Roosevelt administrations!’

I always appreciated that line...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I rate FDR the WORST President in American history because he surrounded himself with agents of Stalin and carried out the communist agenda in America with all possible dispatch.

Just a few of the Soviet agents in his closest circle were Harry Hopkins (more powerful than VP and cabinet combined!), Harry Dexter White and Alger Hiss.

They turned America towards socialism, gave half of Europe to Stalin and, in Hopkins' case, even gave the USSR uranium, heavy water, and equipment to start their first atomic pile (in 1943!).

Obama was a piker in the traitor department compared with FDR.

I URGE anyone interested in the TRUE HISTORY of the 20th century to read American Betrayal by Diana West--a supremely important book.
