FDR- the Icon Hero of the Left

FDR was a power hungry Socialism nightmare.........To me he was Woodrow Wilson on Steroids..........many of his actions of that day led to the shredding of the Constitution and Enumerated Powers. He used the Great Depression and the War to push his views into action during a time of crisis........A moment in history when people are too consumed with fighting the War to care...........and we are still paying for it to this day.

We would have eventually gone to War no matter who was President. Hitler couldn't be allowed to win, and Imperial Japan would have to go down as well.

Regardless on how it played out.........We were going to War.
 
America has always been racist.

The GOP, if in power in 1942, would interned the Japanese.
Hence the revisionist history

Regardless of who won the 1940 election, The Japanese would have been interred .......that was 1942 post Pearl Harbor hysteria

You need to believe to justify your democrat racism.

Where were Republicans fighting against racism in 1942?
Not Ralph Carr but the party powers

Nobody cared about racism in 1942, there was a war to be won......and the Japanese were on the wrong side

Teach THAT to your class

Desperate times call for desperate measures

We were socialist during WWII. Government controlled production and pricing . Any president couldn’t have done it....FDR did and it won the war

The people fighting the War..........WON THE WAR..............The women working in manufacturing WON THE WAR............and the people would have done it regardless of who was President............

In regards to our strategy in Europe............Churchill understood better than FDR what needed to be done there..........He was concerned what was going to happen with Russia AFTER THE WAR..............FDR didn't listen..........and as a result Germany was divided in half after the War and the very reason Britain went to War in the first place........POLAND.........was occupied until Reagan.........Churchill understood a different strategy but didn't have the equipment and troops to implement it..............He knew that we needed to take Germany and as much land as possible before Russia got there..........Because he knew we would have to pay for it after.
 
FDR shredded the 10th.......

My grandparents and parents would disagree that "the people would have done it regardless of who was President." They all voted against him, but they all said no other American leader could have united the American people in necessary effort as did FDR.

Following a strict construction of the Constitution would have not permitted the tools necessary for a centralized war effort.
 
America’s biggest and most predictable train wreck. Unfunded Liabilities.

America’s near $20 trillion of gross federal debt is already twice the annual revenues collected by all the world’s governments combined. But, if unfunded liabilities, including promised Social Security, Medicare and government pension payments are included, the federal government actually owes somewhere between $100 trillion and $200 trillion.

Servicing its debt is a huge and growing problem. According to a recent note by Antony Davies, an associate professor of economics at Duquesne University and James R. Harrigan, a senior research fellow at Strata, the federal debt has grown at an average annual rate of 8.2% since 2000, doubling from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the last eight years. There have been four main lenders: foreigners, Americans, the Federal Reserve, and, most importantly, government trust funds.



Was never meant to be under the Constitution and has led to a Gov't too big for it's britches...........With the power to abuse it's own citizens with that power..........a Gov't that can decide to hand out money for any idea that comes to mind..............and a path of insolvency that was NEVER MEANT TO BE.

Baloney.........we would have built the tools of War out of Necessity regardless of who was in charge............that is BS
 
.... Facts are facts...

And the fact is that throwing innocent Americans into concentration camps is an atrocity that overshadows anything the scumbag fdr did that some might want to perceive as positive.
There were a lot of racist attrocities in the 1940s
Racism existed before FDR and it was around after FDR
Welcome to the club

A lot of democrats like you were racist then just like you are today.
 
FDR made promises of Socialism that could never be met by future generations..............which set the foundation for a LARGE federal Gov't..........

He and his socialist policies and taking a leak on the Constitution of the United States have led us to bills and PROMISES that we have NO POSSIBILITY TO PAY.

It is not the topic of discussion here..............but we were screwed by him and Wilson over 7 decades ago and a century ago who used the FOG of WAR and a time of crisis to implement Social changes which were against the Constitution................and like another poster already said..........when struck down by the Supreme Court............FDR pitched a fit and tried to rig the court............FDR was POMPUS ASS.

Baloney. . . . although you just inferred that the building of "the tools of War out of Necessity" meant that if someone else was in charge, that person would have attacked the strict constructionist nature of the Constitution. Change was inevitable in those situations, and FDR was the architect and WWII the catalyst for the emergence of the modern U. S. nation and its governance.

Germany was divided in half because the Soviets already held half of it. It was the Soviets who defeated the Nazis with our help

Those social promises have been kept for 80 years
No reason they won’t continue to be paid

If we followed the Constitution, those tools of war would not have been built in a free market society

He's a HERO to you.............I already knew that. He's a HERO to socialist UTOPIA................

Just like you............you make Promises that we can't keep. Promises of Milk and Honey and NEVER ENDING HAPPINESS..............

You ignore the Constitution and praise the changes made to it. You, like FDR did, say the CRISIS MADE IT NECESSARY.............it wasn't necessary. Our country had been at War in the past without pissing on the Constitution and won.............Tanks were built.......aircraft were built.........without the necessity of changing the FUNDAMENTAL concept of the Constitution.

You ignore the post I made on unfunded liabilities...............the pensions........the ever growing mandatory funding that are 2/3rds of our budget already and set to implode us in the future. Just like the others who made promises under Socialism that have fell throughout history.

FDR screwed us with that action..........your living in DENIAL of that is just what you are................We can't pay the bills that are coming...........You could spend zero on the military and still not pay for what's coming...................it's simply impossible..............

But you will DENY IT.............BLAME OTHERS...........for your own blind stupidity............

Tell me how to pay for the unfunded liabilities............and I will show you reports ........year after year after decades that say our path is unsustainable.......You will bitch and moan and call me names.............and it doesn't matter.............the math isn't lying............the problem is there.......and it will screw us in the end just like it has screwed other nations in History..........

Blinder on............socialism good..........capitalism bad.............theme from the left.

You ignore the facts.........and what's coming............and when it does come you'll be there to save the day from us evil people who show the data and the path that we can't hope to pay for.......................

It's what you do............it's what FDR did.............History will prove who was right.........but people like you will try to alter the facts and blame others for the path that led us here...........

It's just what you do............
 
FDR has been a hero to hundreds of millions of Americans, not so much to quite a few less. eagle1462010 rants as if his opinions are facts: they are not.

The "unfunded" social programs are easily resolved if Congress, as it will be done under the next Democratic administration and Congress.

eagle well self defines with "DENY IT.............BLAME OTHERS...........for your own blind stupidity............."

The major problem for the far right cons lies in that we can't return to the 1920s.

History will prove FDR, not Hoover, as right.
