Butler County's great daily newspaper

Republican /Democrats

Jim, I don't know your age. Myself I'm 54 . Having grandparents that had 8 children .Grandma had a picture of Franklin D. Roosevlt in her home . F.D.R. was a DEMOCRAT . He was who got us out of the Great Depression , with the New Deal . It had numbers of things in it . C.C.camps , N.R.A. natioal Recovery Act , Natinal Public Administration N.R.A., W.P.A.was another that put people back to work . This even happen in Butler Pa . That stone wall , going up to 778 Legion was made by ones in W.P.A.

Pres. Herbert Hoover a REPULICAN Had gotten us in the Great Depression . The name of the day was BLACK THURSDAY . It was when the stock market crashed ! People killed themselves over it !F.D.R.made the F.D.C.I. that is the insurance in banks , That they have to have to cover peoples savings. Look on the bank's window , you will see that !

Pres. Hoover's hero was Theodore Roosevelt , like Sen. McCain's !

Unemployment was @ 24.9 percent ! People loosing their homes ,known as Hoovervilles. Tent city was another name for it .

Tax cuts, that was for the top income . They went from 73 persent , to 23 persent of toatle taxs collected .

F.D.R. called it wreckless spending!

These facts , do they sound familiar ? Just as the new president will have to clean up . What W.Bush has done , to our goverment . Another REPUBLICAN had gotten us in this state .

Like Obama said : tax those ones over $250,000 more .

Like Cindy said : you must make that much that you are with McCain .

Karl Rove , director of W Bush's group . Now McCain's also . McCain is no MAVERIC, He is McSame !

Learn the REPUBLICANS are for the RICH

DEMOCRATS are for the lower & middle class.
