We HAve Nothing to Fear


For the last two decades the New York Post has attacked FDR for his social programs, which they considered threatened America with communism. The editors appear to a revise their opinion about the New Deal president with today's headline banner.

"We have nothing to fear but fear itself."

FDR spoke these words at his first inauguration in 1933. The country was in a deep depression. It would take us a world war to get out of that slump. We don't have that option, since we're already fighting two wars, but it's good to see the other side come around to FDR.

He was certainly on GW Bush.

Even Herbert Hoover was no GW Bush.
