He really kept on ticking even after the liberals gave him a licking. I'd say it fits. :)

Streetpreacher, you say, Of course FDR's only claim to greatness is the war against Nazism and Japan, but even that is sullied (in not a small way) by the way he betrayed the Eastern European countries to the Soviet Monster.

Ok, tell me how you were going to free Eastern Europe from Russia. What did you want FDR to do? Did you want him to attack Russia in Eastern Europe. Are you prepared to lose millions of American lives?

Keep in mind, the top general in WW2 was Eisenhower. You remember Hungary 1956, when Eisenhower refused to helped the Hungarians. So i'll ask you, How could FDR have freed Eastern Europe from Russia?

I got a funny Energizer bunny joke.

Did you hear, the Energizer bunny was arrested.
He was charged with battery.
Luckily he had a Powered Attorney!

Steve Malzberg has a great article about the Democrats Praising Reagan now. One great point Malzberg made,
Jimmy Carter (like John Kerry) criticized Reagan's retaliatory bombing of Libya in 1986, calling it a "serious mistake." Here's the article. http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2004/6/7/114943.shtml

Seems to me you have two clear choices for greatest president;

The man who gave us our nation and government, Washington, or the man who saved them both, Reagan.

And to what you mention, add to FDR's bill the internment camps and knowingly refusing to save Jews fleeing Germany.

As for Churchill, I think it is more he knew what his situation was. He was quoted as saying something to the effect of "I would ally with the devil himself if he would make war on Germany."

In strict accordance with the FreeRepublic by laws,
paragraph 4, section 7, stating that, and I quote:
"any mention of our beloved Ann Coulter
must include her image", I offer the following
pictures for your exclusive viewing pleasure.






Carville really IS gollum.

Keep in mind, the top general in WW2 was Eisenhower. You remember Hungary 1956, when Eisenhower refused to helped the Hungarians. So i'll ask you, How could FDR have freed Eastern Europe from Russia?

As of 1945 the Soviet Union was spent. They pulled so many men from the fields that they created a borderline famine. Luckily for them the Germans were far worse off...

Had the US simply not demobilized right after Japan surrendered, the Soviet Union could easily have been forced to abide by their agreements to allow free elections in the areas they had conquered. They could not afford a conflict in 1945 - we could afford to at least take the risk of brinksmenship.

Further, had FDR not encouraged communist inflitration of his administration (and frankly there is no other way to describe it), the Soviets would not have had all the inside knowledge they needed to judge our reactions let alone the bomb in 49...

But FDR was not a bright man. He fell for the leftist spin that communism wasn't a threat, pitifully believed that he could control Stalin by sheer personality, and payed absolutely no thought to what the world would look like post WWII.

Not a bad list - except for FDR. But why does everyone forget/overlook James Madison?!? Who btw just happened to author the U.S. Constitution.

Jean Kirkpatrick said the definition of a pragmatist was someone who was flexible enough in his process to achieve his inflexible ideological goals.

A most succinct expose of third party protest votes.

Likewise, as I understand it, China was betrayed to the Communist Conspiracy by the Democratic administrations.

Darn straight, specifically Harry Truman. He de facto surrendered China to Mao by not backing Chiang Kai-Shek with adequate funds and military aid. It was something about HST seeing Chang's Army marching on film and they were... gasp... goose-stepping (allegedly). He then said words to the effect (allegedly); "They're a bunch of GD fascists".

And do to Truman weakness (soft on communism) he also in effect caused the Korean war.

And after WWII, HST also reneged on his promise to Ho-Chi-Min of aid for his help in fighting the Japs (Ho was not a commie at the time) and in helping get their Independence from France. As such, Ho turned to Stalin for aid and in setting up an Independent Government (naturally Stalinist). So in reality HST caused us the Vietnam War too.

JFK also CAUSED the Cuban Missile Crisis, but that's another topic.

So as Ann says in her book TREASON, democrats cannot be trusted with foreign policy. They keep causing wars and the republicans always have to clean up the resulting mess.

Tough choice leaving out Madison - and Monroe too. But I rate FDR highly for getting us through WW II and discount a lot of his nonsense before that.

Reagan's words, spoken in 1964, should be repeated by George Bush today:

"We are at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars, and it has been said if we lose that war, and in doing so lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening."

Yeah FDR got us "through" WWII (after illegally getting us involved in the first place). However, his European giveaway to Stalin was unconscionable. He should never be forgiven for that. He de facto sentenced MILLIONS of people to death.

George Washington went through hell before we could even become a Republic. That is a vote for being the greatest. Lincoln went through a dreadful civil war that threatened to split the country into two parts. The personal grief he had to suffer is something I can't truly put into words. Another vote for greatest. And as much as it pains me, Franklin Roosevelt was at the helm when our existence was threatened also. Grudgingly, I give him the respect I must give all Presidents who serve in such times, and he also gets a vote for greatest. President Reagan presided over the collapse of a nearly monolithic enemy sworn to destroy us. He too, deserves a vote as greatest. But I can only vote once. I vote for Lincoln, but on a technicality. President Washington became President after the Rrevolutionary War.

Nancy Pelosi always looks as if she is supressing a gleefuld grin. Her plastic surgeon told her she could choose one expression for the rest of her life, and this is the one she chose. It really doesn't work so well for state funerals.
