FDR just a reminder

I just wanted to remind you all that FDR was the greatest president. If you want to make sure your children know this have them watch the movie annie. FDR even sings a solo.

How screwed up is the supposed history we have been taught? All along I thought that Roosevelt had died in 1945, where he actually sang in a movie musical nearly 4 decades later?

From imdb - "Annie (1982): Broadway musical based on the Little Orphan Annie comic strip. A young orphan girls adventures in finding a family that will take her."

Yes. And someone wants to show children how good FDR was based on this movie.

Leni Riefenstahl made some great movies, too.

You just KNOW that eh? I do not think anyone here hated him. Is anyone even old enough to know him. I think what is hated is the polices he advocated that have really hurt this country.

One thing I do know from experience - it is hard for the so called "left" to separate hate for an individual and that individual's policies (IE George W Bush - whom BTW I did not vote for).

I don't hate george w. bush, i feel sorry for the man. He has to live with quite a bit on his conscious. He will be suffering internally for the rest of his life, and karma will catch up with him if not in this life the next.

And i don't think he's the worst president, it's too soon to tell. Ronald wilson regan on the other hand is the worst.

The real tragedy is that Barack Obama makes a moron like George W. look like an economic genius.
