  • Over 400 thousand Americans died on the battlefield for these rights, which we all benefited until recently. The roaring1920's led to the "Great Depression." The roaring 1990's and part of this decade led to this "Great Recession." History has repeated itself. My WWII grandfathers would be rolling over in their graves to see what's going on now. This has nothing to do with "socialism" or "communism." It's called "freedom!!!"

  • These words ring true today. On of the best presidents of the 20th century.

  • We need another president like FDR. So badly!

  • @RealWorldNewsOrg I find your screen name to be so ironic it isn't even funny

  • @Tarn1968 and one of those Nazi sympathizers was Prescott Bush, who spawned those juggernauts of stupidity, George Bush one and two.

  • FDR's words still ring true! All the Freedoms that FDR talked about are under attack by the Right.

  • My god we need another FDR. Obama could learn from him. If he doesn't, those god dammed republicons will take contol of the White House next year.

  • Socialism, Communism....why must we Americans use those two words so interchangeably with totalitarianism? I don't any American REALLY understands socialism. Thanks McCarthy....

    Ross Perot said it best when he explained the Constitution would PROBABLY have been EXTREMELY different [even mirroring Socialism to an extent] if it had been drafted AFTER the Industrial Revolution.

  • My father, a WWII vet and still alive today, is thoroughly disgusted and saddened at what's going on in this country now. He fought to make a better world for everyone and now has to watch the current insanity of the Republicans who would turn this nation into a theocracy, one that won't help anyone who doesn't believe the way they do. We need a new FDR, along with a congress who will help the country grow and better itself rather than be bought and paid for by the wealthy, as they are now.

  • greenghost2008, Where did you get your revisionist viewpoints? My WWII grandparents loved FDR. He gave them hope in the darkest days of American history. People who bash FDR didn't live back then, so they speak from what they hear from the Republican Party.

  • @TomOzzy123 none has teh freedom to violate others freedom as FDR wanted. government is what caused and what made teh great depression worst with it's cheap credit, cartelizations, capital destruction, increasing money supply, imperalis wars,etc. read how capitalism saved american or meltdown

  • Amen
