Time-travelling destroyer of economies

In yet more evidence of the deluded state of mind repugicans dwell under ...

Representative Steve Austria (r-OH) has the skinny on FDR: the man was a time-travelling socialist.
"When (President Franklin) Roosevelt did this, he put our country into a Great Depression," Austria said. "He tried to borrow and spend, he tried to use the Keynesian approach, and our country ended up in a Great Depression. That's just history."

History and historians date the beginning of the Great Depression at or shortly after the stock-market crash of 1929; Roosevelt took office in 1933.

"That's just history." Someone has been spoon-fed a load of tripe and swallowed it whole.


Can we now be rid of all these fools?!
