To: a fool in paradise
all I am saying is that FDR was a closet Bolshevic and 2 of his so called four freedoms were far from freedom, by instituting a ‘freedom from want’, they must first pick my pocket and take my freedoms away.

did you notice the first 2 freedoms were the same...the first amendment?????

and gun control started with FDR so, so much for freedom from fear(unless you have a cop in your back pocket).....

Opponents of the Second Amendment started to mobilize at the federal level in the 1930s. It came during the New Deal, when the federal government was growing rapidly. Two laws enacted during this period, the National Firearms Act of 1934 and the Federal Firearms Act of 1938, established the first federal gun controls, they introduced the concept of national regulation of firearms.

Yes he was institutionalizing socialism into our system and had a VP who’d visited Stalin’s gulags and said nothing. Reds had infested our government.

We now have leadership that deliberately sabotages this nation’s ability to provide for itself from the bounty of natural resources and labor and castigates the populace as living too high on the hog so we must PAY to solve global poverty and do without (things like AC), not because we keep them from having what we have, but to show we “care”.

The American Dream is dead and Obama killed it. Just as he said he’d do in his campaign speeches “America must change”.

This is much worse than the Democrat leadership of old. No matter how “incremental” the socialist programs were, this is an administration that says “we cannot go on living as we used to”. To glory days are past us (by deliberate intent, not because we are incapable of returning to freedom from want).
