Casual Observation

There is a recommended diary at Daily Kos by a user named puakev that does something I’ve been wanting to do all year. It goes back and looks at how liberals and progressives reacted and interacted with the FDR administration during its first term. It is almost spooky how closely the rhetoric and landscape matches what we’re seeing today. I kind of suspected as much, but it’s interesting to see it confirmed. It’s a must read.
