Obama revives FDR, but accused Romney's speech of being one that should have been watched in b/w TV
media/Obama | 9/6/2013 | self

Posted on 09/06/2012 8:27:31 PM PDT by shoedog

We know the media won't jump on Obama's hypocritical statement that Romney's speech should have been seen on black and white TV, while Obama himself harkens back to FDR and the depression. Romney's team needs to jump on this.

Was it Biden who said FDR was on TV?

The whole speech was about collectivism. The only thing missing was him repeating “you didn’t build that”.

nothing like Fabian socialists and Third Way ex-Prezzies to invoke FDR and praise the programs that have failed so many and now assure financial ruination if the socialist tide is not turned.

Excellent observation!

Less than a night. Just an hour or two.

Run with this.

Biden—”When the stock market crashed, Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn’t just talk about the, you know, the princes of greed. He said, ‘Look, here’s what happened,’”

actually, to write back again. i loved b/w tv programs. still do.

Bonanza? Father Knows Best? Leave it to Beaver? I Love Lucy?

The were all moral. they were all Godly. The were chaste and pure.

too bad that rat’s worship on the altar of baal and molech, the altar of ishtar and dianna. and say they believe in no god. they have their gods and they are wicked. just like “allah”.

i watched jesse jackson try to explain that “allah” is just another name for “god”.

my “God” has nothing to do with “allah”. do not understand why any Christian organization would give him the title of “rev”. that goes for al sharpton too.

they should be ashamed.

Blessings, bobo

I hate to be nitpicky, but Bonanza was actually famous for being brought to you in Living Color.

In the black-and-white TV era, Americans were a largely Christian people whose education system actually educated people, and who were culturally alive.

In the color TV era, all that changed, and we became “America Lite”. Here’s how that happened:

Yep....

The first convention broadcast on TV was the 1932 GOP convention where Hoover was renominated.
