    Barack Obama : The Black FDR?

    On January 20th ,2009 ,a (liberal) friend of mine said "Barack Obama will be the Black FDR".

    It looks like that indeed has come to be true.

    Like FDR ,a less than competent Republican president left Obama with the worst economic mess we had seen since the Great Depression , and a fragile overseas situation (the Middle East) the world hadn't seen since Europe and Asia in WWII.

    Even the modern-day isolationst movement is very much like the isolationist movement during WWII that said " Ignore Hitler and Hirohito and they won't bother us,the Jews and the Chineese brought it on themselfs".

    Even isolationist Pat Buchanan has equated Syria with the Spanish Civil War.



    And it looks like Obama will the first president since FDR to get re-elected despite these problems,or maybe because like in FDR's day,people haven't forgotten it was the GOP that had gotten us into these messes in the first place.

    It is difficult for any decent person to sit back and not comment on the anti-Semitism,racism ,sexism ,and all-around ignorance espoused on the majority of DA's posts,it's fucking sad when one gets a warning for simply being a decent person.

    The right wing better hope this country reverses course and goes down the drain in a hurry or the 22nd amendment will come into play in 2016.

    Ah yes, president by edict. We already expected that would happen. Bring it. Nothing could do more than to break this country apart and demonstrate what a jackbooted thug your president is. I can't fucking wait.

    Isn't it funny how the PopTart eaters still think Obama can save us?

    I really don't see how Syria is similar to the Spanish Civil War.
    Show us not the aim without the way, for ends and means on earth are so entangled
    That changing one, you change the other too; each different path brings other ends in view

    Larry, you are delusional. What you perceive as patterns are so unrelated, so retarded, so idiotic, that we can only assume you are trolling, as you typically are!

    Maybe in the sense that it was a run up to WWII and a test ground. Similarly, Syria/Iran=WWIII

    I'm not saying that I believe this, but others might see it that way. I'm not sure it's a good analogy.

    Who the hell is Larry? Is that Teller's real name? If that's Teller's real name then he can use my real name.

    The President is a phrase-maker par excellence. He admires trite sayings and revels in formulating them. But when he comes to their practical application he is so vague that their worth may well be doubted.

    What does Obama's race have to do with whether or not his presidency is analogous to that of FDR?

    Interesting. Perhaps Obama is the black Woodrow Wilson. They were both racists intent on giving us shit that will eventually destroy the country.
