9. Absolutely ridiculous
They should try to honor Reagan a different way (or a different coin). We can't let them do it. FDR took a broke country and helped make it the dominant country on the planet. We can't let them try to erase FDR.

17. I'm willing to put Reagan's image on a wooden nickel
Edited on Sat Dec-06-03 07:12 PM by Military Brat
:evilgrin:

Edit: Notice how USA Today intentionally prejudices the vote with the "happy idiot" photo of Reagan vs. the tight-lipped saggy-faced baggy-eyed visage of FDR.

Looks like they've been perusing the Rovian playbook.

18. USA Today poll anomaly
Using the AOL browser, the poll doesn't load correctly. FDR button is inactive and when I press on Reagan -the black dot appears. (Rigged?)

so I fired up IE and FDR button works for IE browser.

I tried the AOL browser twice...so I KNOW it won't let me vote FDR with that browser.

anyone else have this happen?
