FDR vs. Obama?

Even a capitalist like Conrad Black wrote a biography of FDR that
gave him credit for being pro-America and fighting WWII to win.

And you should hear my flyover-country relatives that were alive
and ages 10-15 during the later part of FDR’s Administration.

They didn’t love everything about FDR but give him credit for keeping
the country from going Communist/Facist during The Great Depression.

And they HATE Obama for being the Anti-American he reveals himself to
be every day.
I think the only reason they won’t be committing suicide soon was
seeing AG Holder getting his head handed to him on national TV...
and the resurgence of some American spirit (e.g., including Palin’s public appearances)

I have served since Bush Senior and REFUSE to have the zero signature on my retirement certificate.

My father has Slick Willy on his and it HAUNTS him. Partly becuase I point it out everytime I visit him. ;)

I suppose I can forge a nice Reagan one if it comes to pass.

Alger Hiss, Owen Lattimore, Laughlin Currey, Harry Dexter white, and the list goes on. FDR’s Gov was loaded with Marxists and Communist cells. What FDR was doing with WPA, etc. is the same as Obama today.
Check out Operation Keelhaul.

Dozens and dozens of my neighbors as a kid were just a few years out of the concentration camps of Europe.
My great Uncle helped liberate Buchenwald which I later saw when I spent time in East Germany in 1983.

A relative came home in a box from the Bataan Death March
because they were short weapons for starters. His family
members serve today.

Thank goodness my many relatives today who serve mostly in the Marines with several tours in Iraq and Afghn. don’t
listen to twits like Beck.
