What about the hardworking people who made these guns, warships, and rockets?

World War 2 brought about the end of the Great Depression, saved us from the New Deal which prolonged it.

Rather Admits 'Mistake in Judgment'

CBS Was Misled About Bush National Guard Documents, Anchor Says

Washington Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, September 21, 2004; Page A01

CBS News anchor Dan Rather apologized yesterday for a "mistake in judgment" in relying on apparently bogus documents for a "60 Minutes" report charging that President Bush received favorable treatment in the National Guard, ending a nearly two-week-long defense of the network's journalistic conduct that media analysts say has badly hurt its credibility.

We all make mistakes. I'll own up to it. I originally heard it from Reagan when I was watching the 1992 Republican Convention on Youtube this afternoon. I'll give Reagan a pass because he was 81, and we didn't have internet then like we have now.

wrong again mr carseller

• By 1936, in just three years, GDP had surpassed the 1929 level where Hoover began his assault upon it.
• By 1937, per capita income, which had been also been Hoovered, surpassed 1929 levels.
• The economy continued to grow at this pace through 1939, despite a small hiccup in 1938 (when stimulus had been mistakenly reduced; but FDR was smart enough to recognize this and get back on course).
• WW II HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OF THIS. The recovery had been ongoing for six years when the war started in late 1939. ( GDP growth in the US accelerated to 11% per year during 1939-45⁽²⁾, but only loonies living in undisclosed locations believe in wars as prescription for economic recovery.)

The irony of this is that almost all conservatives of today would have opposed AL at the time. I can guarantee that, of course they would deny it but they would either be wrong or lying. One of the two--guaranteed.

[d2bets]

Setting aside that it's a bogus quote, how could a President from 150 years ago give any ideas on how to fix the country now?

[dante1]

that too, lol
