Reply #13: What's with the going after Hoover and Davis [View All]

[Yupster]

two of the most honest, incorruptible, honorable men in our nation's history.

When Hoover took office many parts of the nation's economy were already deep in depression. The stock market crash occurred when he was in office less than a year.

His Reconstruction Finance Corp. pushed the government further into the nation's economic sphere than any president before him would have dreamt of going.

FDR went much, much further, which makes Hoover's eforts look paltry in comparison, but if you compare him with those who went before him, he went very far.

Not a reasonable person to compare to Bush in my opinion.
