Sure, FDR didn't manage to kill us, but he sure as heck crippled us for a good long while - and some damage we've never recovered (NFA anyone?). Further, the economic foundation hadn't been rotting away under the floorboards for forty years when he kicked off the New Deal. <BR/><BR/>As to whether we'll get 4-8 years of Very Left? No idea. Could be the worst of it is fought off and Congress changes hands in 2010 and we're back to gridlock. <BR/><BR/>Or not. Time will tell.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682072668997410668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404305187176881635.post-42894892837461642692009-01-21T01:19:00.000-05:002009-01-21T01:19:00.000-05:00Will Shetterly, whose politics I often don't agree...Will Shetterly, whose politics I often don't agree with but who is very bright and perceptive man, has noted that we have the words 'racist' and anti-racist', but haven't yet really gotten a word for 'race is unimportant'. <BR/><BR/>I am happy to be a member of a nation that may often judge a man -and woman - on the content of their character, not the color of their skin. By the content of his character I find my new president to be lacking - but it is, as you point out, only four years. We shall prevail, because we are a better people and a stronger nation than that.On a Wing and a Whimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00754595334684845895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404305187176881635.post-61081233161909602072009-01-19T23:43:00.000-05:002009-01-19T23:43:00.000-05:00Well said Sir, well said...
