Actually, Harding was an excellent President. He’s been viciously maligned by leftist historians. He resolved the Wilson Depression very quickly by cutting spending and taxes and it was Calvin Coolidge who continued the model. I’d swap Zero for Harding in a heartbeat.

Actually, I'd swap Zero for any of the past Presidents, including that old communist FDR. At least they were all Americans.

Wow, that IS impressive.

Especially when you consider neither President (or any President for that matter) has the Constitutional Power to do so.

Or any other president, with the possible exception of FDR, who did more damage because he was in office longer. Obama has about 3 more years to go yet, we'll see if he can match Roosevelt.

Sadly, my 93 year old mother is still a "Roosevelt democrat". There's no reasoning with her, I just go ahead and love her anyway.
