Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.
Daniel Patrick Moynihan
Hey PC, I've been around since Harry Truman was President, so I lived through a good portion of the liberal era that started with the New Deal and ended with the Great Society. It was America's finest moment. It was an era with huge economic growth and shared wealth, fantastic successes in technology, vast expansion of citizen freedoms and liberties and the growth of a middle class that defined this country and made America the 'city on the hill', the envy of the world.
That era ended at the end of the 1960's and the conservative era began. It has continued ever since. It has been a negative mirror image of the liberal era. We now lead the world only in the dubious like incarcerating human beings, killing innocent people and launching Hirohito sneak attacks on sovereign nations.
So my question PC, what blame do Republicans and conservatives deserve? You can't have the power, profess 'personable responsibility', then turn around and blame those without power.
Did you just say the new deal was was America's finest moment? Really? You truly are a whack job.
I said the liberal era from the New Deal through the Great Society was America's finest moment. But I don't subscribe to right wing revisionist history that tries to deceive the American people.
