Very impressed with the history and civics lesson video. Clearly explains governments.

Knowing that history often does repeat itself and human nature really does not appreciably change, I must research to see how long the Roman Republic lasted.

Fabulous find, Blogger. Almost makes me feel a little better in an odd sort of way.

Guess that is why the DEAMONcrats have done their best to drop history curricula from schools.

I don't know this for a fact, but I suppose the New Deal is still tought but grossly overglorified today in the public schools. Heck, Franklin D. Roosevelt is almost always rated among the top five US presidents in any survey of historians.

Barry Obama, B.A., Columbia; J.D., Harvard.

Holy cow! I confess I missed the irony there when I saw the cartoon.

25 percent unemployment

In all fairness, that was the figure at about the time Roosevelt took office. It didn't get all that much better for the next seven years, though.

Very apt cartoon in # 68.

Roosevelt called the Constitution a document for the horse and buggy era (or something similar) when he railed against the SCOTUS' declaring a few New Deal laws unconstitutional. But after several elderly conservative judges were encouraged to retire and he appointed their replacements, the SCOTUS pretty much rubber-stamped the constitutionality of every law that was passed and signed.

Thanks justiceseeker93. This would be an appropriate place to link to the topics about how Obama et al have claimed that the New Deal didn’t spend enough. But I want to get to bed soon. :’)

Liberals think history start either the day they wake up or the day they were born.

Ecclesiastes was right!! Yikes! Deja vu!!!

I don't know who that Ecclesiates feller played for, but I think you're quoting Yogi Berra.

...pretty much the same thing since most of them were born yesterday.

Ecclesiastes 9: “The thing that has been—it is what will be again, and that which has been done is that which will be done again; and there is nothing new under the sun.”

Timely.

Notice the use of the word red.

“Notice the use of the word red.”

Oh, I hadn’t caught that. Interesting at how it was used then and now it’s used now.

WOW!
