When did he ever have a coherent point?

Seriously.

This keeps coming back to haunt us. We have a crisis, and one of the things we need to do is get people working. But the sorts of things FDR did elude us. Partly because of rules, mostly because the process takes the benefits past where a politician can reap the reward. That's not entirely the politicians fault, in our divided and conflicted political environment, even stuff that works will get lied about. But if the benefit isn't going to show up for a while, Republicans will again screw the country trying to screw the program (and the politicians that passed it).

The solar cell market was our baby. But Republicans had one of their temper tantrums, and now China owns the solar panel market.

Do you remember Obama touted this solar company Solyndra? They lost $500 million of our taxpayers funds and went bankrupt.

I specifically posted these without commentary. The viewer can form their own opinions by what is stated and I don't need to slant the content. Conclusions are yours.

In short, put your big boy pants on and don't expect me to spoon feed you.

If you had big boy pants, you could construct rational explanation and argumentation...

But you don't.
