Funny. Since the media will not make a big deal of this historical, technological and political mistake maybe it's up to us to make sure this gets a lot of attention.

Hoover led when depression hit, and became the most activist peace-time president in the history of the republic. His solution? Death to “trickle-down” economics. Death to speculators. Raise taxes; raise tariffs; “stabilize” wages and prices; encourage businesses to cartelize; etc.

FDR’s leadership was a godsend at that time. Because of his timely advice, I was able to log into eTrade and save the family fortune. /s

Or, as Andrew Mellon put it at the time, ''Liquidate. Liquidate business, liquidate farmers, liquidate capital and liquidate labor. The sooner we get back to balance, the sooner we can resume growth.''

Hoover and Mellon (and the Fed, for that matter) had NO clue what they were dealing with. For further evidence on this point, consult Mr. Smoot and Mr. Hawley.

As heard from the ZerObama camp:

“Oh my god! Biden has morphed into a stupid pig! Quick, get that pig a tube of libstick!”

“Is his speech ready?”

Let Biden speak his great wisdom. Every time he opens his mouth it's a another undecided voter for McCain.

When does Biden wrestle Gore for the rights to inventing the internet?

Luckily, Biden has not found the quotation that I have found to live by...

Tis Better to remain Silent, and be Thought a Fool...
Than to SPEAK, and REMOVE ALL DOUBT!!

I just want to see how much of Biden is Left... AFTER SARAHCUDA Drops, Skins and Field Dresses Him ... all in ONE 90 minute DEBATE
