FDR & the Great Depression

President Roosevelt went on TV to explain the causes of the Stock Market crash on 1929.

Nevermind that TV, while invented, was not in wide usage
Oh, and he wasn't President in 1929 either. That would have been Hoover.

New Obama slogan: "Dont just MAKE history, CHANGE it."

Biden wants to lose. He's Hillary's Manchurian Candidate so that she can run in 2012.

Unless they're making him say silly things to give a decent reason for ditching him.

If you buy into conspiracy theories, that is.

Jesse Walker on the Hit&Run blog:


And if you owned an experimental TV set in 1929, you would have seen him. And you would have said to yourself, "Who is that guy? What happened to President Hoover?"

This is priceless. After saying that a "leader must show people that he knows what he's talking about," Biden goes on to demonstrate that he has no idea what he's talking about. A Freudian slip regarding his leadership qualities?

It's no conspiracy - Joe Biden really is a genuine dumb-ass. He doesn't even seem to feel the slightest twinge of "uh-oh, I wonder if I'm saying something destructive to our candidacy here" when he says things like "paying more taxes is the patriotic thing for wealthy Americans to do."
