5. I read an interesting FDR bio a few years ago
(sadly, long ago donated it to the library, so don't recall the exact title).

It was interesting reading how he went into office with a big-money big-business background and walked out hating business with the heat of 1,000 suns. I knew he was really tough on business toward the end, but never knew how much or to what extent he completely loathed them. It was a true flight or fight and he doubled (nay, tripled) down on the fight HUGE.

7. Interesting that this pic has President Obama looking down on the left.
It almost seems as if he is siding with the right.

Crap picture... although I am assuming you were going for something else.

:thumbsdown:
