So did JFK, Reagan, Clinton, and Obama. The market doubled during FDR's first year and quadrupled during his first term. That would've made me feel good. SD

School Fired Prof Over 9/11 Essay: Jury newser.com (Newser) – A jury decided today that the University of Colorado unjustly fired one of its professors after he called 9/11 victims "little Eichmanns" in an essay, the Denver Post reports. Jurors, however, awarded Ward Churchill only $1 in damages. A judge will now determine whether the school must reinstate Churchill and pay him any lost wages. The school "not only violated my rights, but my students' rights and the community's rights," said Churchill. The $1 judgment didn't bother him because his suit was about "justice," he said, adding that he expected to be reinstated. Churchill's essay of Sept. 12, 2001, blamed misguided US policies for drawing the attacks, and it said some of the financial workers who died in the World Trade Center were complicit, notes the New York Times.

Yes. By all accounts - like my grandmother to me - Roosevelt was the best at it. She said if he was still alive, he'd still be President.

dont minimize the feeling good aspect when dodging a depression. Comes in handy. Of course if policy fails the hangover can be bad. Repubs are viewed as folks rooting for disaster to derail obama machine. Unless and until they can get beyond those kind of politics, they will be the third party of american politics following obama/dems and obama/indys. See who the repubs for obama will be when he runs against palin in 012 if it gets that bad for repubs.
