Quote of the Day

Wednesday, August 10th, 2011

“At the height of the Great Depression, [President] Roosevelt avoided such a rating. So did other presidents during troubled times including Nixon, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and G.W. Bush. Yet, the news media are more interested with protecting a failed president than with informing American citizens about a troubling economic situation.”
