Could he actually do much of anything at that point?
The latest medical news is that FDR had Guillain–Barré syndrome and not polio.
Many people have noticed over the years ... I first heard it from my mother. She was no fan of either of them.
Many years ago, touring the little White House at Warm Springs, the tour guide didn’t try to hide anything.
“Are we talking Nelson Rockefeller here?”
His wife was Happy when he died...
“No. Nelson’s mistress was Megan Marshack. He had a heart attack one night while with her and perhaps another friend at the townhouse Nelson bought her.’
Yes, but his wife was Happy.
I think they were distant cousins. She was a Roosevelt herself. (And yes, she was much more attractive as a very young woman.)
What were those lyrics at the end of “Start Me Up”?
I think you have identified the problem.
Was Mrs.Roosevelt ever at any time an attractive woman? I mean, even with youth on her side, did she ever not have to sneak up on a glass of water?
LOVE your username. Just before falling asleep was always story time and one of mother’s favorites was the origin of the word DITTO and cabbage heads. Loved hearing that story over and over again and so happy to have your name bring the memory back.
And I don’t think it much mattered anyway, because from what I heard, Eleanor was a lesbian anyway anyway
Megan just passed away in October of this year at the age of seventy.
Eleanor was a raging lesbo.
Never FReepers EVER forget FDR’s “Second Bill of Rights”— he gave in a speech and became holy writ as the goals of all the demonrat MACHINE Leftist/Communists ever since. It is quite a read. Will look it up and post it for all to see.
One other comment. FDR’s physicians knew he would have a stroke (rather- another of several strokes he had while in office). His blood pressure at Yalta is recorded as 260/150!! He was on fairly high dose of digitalis (a “new” drug to make his heart pump stronger. He had no doubt already had several mini-strokes which his polio covered up on peripheral vascular responses. No surprise as he continued to smoke a pack a day at least, and drink multiple cocktails and stopped trying to be out of his wheelchair even in front of Congress.
4 elections— unreal, and he was without question a dictator, buying the Southern Democrat machine (and he did not give a whit about “the coloreds” vs. the lesbian Eleanor who hosted Josh White in the WH). Truman was even worse, in his shadow, without a clue and a small man ego clearly at work. So many try to characterize Truman as some kind of man of the people. He was a machine pol from Missouri, who replaced the Communist VP Wallace (who ran a seed company- an agrarian Communist all in for the New Deal and massive govt overreach that did not recover the US from the Depression.). Like all democrats they always work the way of the US into some kind of military conflict to allow them extra-judiciary powers. All bullcrap generally all the time.
The “model” for idiot Biden of course is Woodrow Wilson and his buttinski wife— who actually ran the country for quite while, illegally and just like the dem socialist machine wanted it. WWI we did not need to enter— but, hell yeah— sacrifice your family farms to fight the Kaiser (oh, and make certain the Tsar is overthrown for your Bolshevik pals, aided by the Kaiser in the overthrow).
So, I can see how Hillary could connect…
(I understand that H’s Ouija Board takes batteries.)
The sacred “God” of “our Democracy” the tyrant FDR’s
Second Bill of Rights.
Part of his State of the Union Address on Tuesday, January 11, 1944. FDR suggested that the nation had come to recognize (not saying how he determined this- naturally) and should now implement a “Second bill of Rights”, arguing that the political rights backed by the Constitution, had proven inadequate to assure the country of Equality of the pursuit of happiness”!!
To put this in clearer meaning— he meant Equality of Outcome being assured by the “government” -—NOTHING of the sort was intended by the Founders or envisioned in our Constutition- including a concept of the US being a “democracy”. The US is described therein as a Republic. NOT a democracy— for it was democracy rule by mob which destroyed the Europe they all had escaped.
Here are the “Rights’ acc. to FDR. The Road Map of fanatic machine Demonrats ever since— their sacred hero:
These are NOT Rights in any conception of the US Constitution. These “rights” are to be granted to people FROM government. A government which CONTROLS all citizens by and through the providing of these “rights”. These are not natural rights given to all people by God. No, these are government handouts— to replace GOD and individual efforts to be rewarded by these very items. Pure Socialism, mixed with judicious amount of true Fascism (Mussolini type):
1.)The right to a useful and remunerative job in the industries or shops or farms or mines of the nation;
2.) The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation;
3.)The right of every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return which will give him and his family a decent living;
4.)The right of every businessman, large and small, to trade in an atmosphere of freedom from unfair competition and domination by monopolies at home or abroad;
5.)The right of every family to a decent home;
6.)The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health;
7.)The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accident, and unemployment;
8.)The right to a good education.
The holy writ of the LEFTIST Socialist democrats for more than 70 years and prior. Socialism is theft by force of government— pure and simple. No free will and frankly no Freedom.
The face that launched a thousand mules— a@@ first. The look a mule gives looking back over its shoulders.
Is he in heaven or hell? Everything else is chaff.
