Concerning the advertisement 'Condemn Bush's labor board', FDR would never

be seen crying. Yeah, I know it's all a good cause and to make a point, but, FDR would not let something like this be approved. The man who once said that "we have nothing to fear but fear itself" is not the man who I see crying about Bush and his so-called labor board. Roosevelt would fight these bastards to the end, and you know what? He would win! To compare the Democratic party that is now to the Democratic party in the forties..... It's like hot and cold water!

For those not aware, the advertisement was on the home page and elsewhere.

5. No. But Brokeback Mountain was way after his time.

Maybe, per-chance, he read some Oscar Wilde plays? Both were way intellectuals.

3. Agreed completely. FDR would not cry and hope people would blog about problems.

4. I recently discovered FDR was a smoker,

so his ideas are pretty much DOA @ this house until textbooks stop depicting him as a filthy leech smoker piece of garbage. What an irony that such an evil bastard as Hitler had such a correct view on tobacco; even a broken clock reads correct twice a day.

6. What do you mean that you 'recently discovered' about someone

Edited on Tue Nov-20-07 04:38 PM by icymist

pictured in just about every history book published with FDR smoking that he 'was a smoker'? FDR smoking is common knowledge and this is nowhere near the OP about FDR crying about a government function.

P.S. Your point that Hitler was more correct than FDR is wrong. Just wrong. Hitler was also a vegetarian. SO WHAT?
