As most of you know, today is President Reagan’s 100th birthday. He is, in my opinion, the third greatest President ever. Only Presidents Washington and Lincoln, for obvious reasons, are above him. FDR? No way! Yeah he was good during World War Two, but his handling of the economy during the depression of the 1930’s was atrocious.
Yet the libs who regal him seem to think his leadership was magnificent. What a crock of crap! The fact of the matter is FDR’s “New Deal” economic policies not only did not help the economy recover, they made the depression last longer by years, as many honest economists have written.
It was WW2 starting in 1939 when Hitler and Nazi Germany invaded Poland that finally ended the depression, by all the jobs that were needed for wartime production, even before we entered the war, and building up the military. At the time Pearl Harbor was attacked, the U.S. unemployment rate was still around 10%.
If ever there was a time that not only the U.S., but the world, needed a great man and leader like President Reagan in the White House, it’s now. Instead, we’re stuck with an incompetent socialist boob with an incompetent administration masquerading as a President for two more years.
Happy Birthday, Mr. President!
