[img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] Was this for me? [img]graemlins/erm.gif[/img] I don't have a party affiliation; I am above political parties. I meant that only rich conservatives will have $1,000 bills in their pocket; I know I probably never would. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Not really; FDR was wholeheartedly and decidedly a Democrat by party affiliation. If you ignore that, though, then yes--some of his programs were more "Democrat" in nature, like WPA, CCC, Social Security, etc. and some were more "Republican" such as the massive defense spending increases and the influx of money he and the Federal Reserve System helped put into the hands of big business. FDR was more of a Realist, someone who got problems solved by (almost) any means necessary. [/QUOTE]Not rich liberals as well eh? Bah, not a time to be nitpickin anyhow.
I mean, FDR was on the dime for a good reason, his involvement with the march of dimes, there no reason to punish his memory because of a stupid docudrama, i'm sure reagan will get honored some other way but the dime is fine as is.
