If it were possible to drag President Roosevelt from the grave and show him U.S. government actions as they are now, what could be said if he held up the material on the War on Drugs and averred:
"Sir! This is why I issued many chits, and made many promises, to get the Prohibition amendment repealed! How else to recompense the people who rather preferred the unruly police in that time?"
Uhh... If he could be, we should beat him up and throw him back, prohibition aside...
Even better, wheel him into the path of a wildfire and take his wheelchair away. That'll teach him to give government power (like "protecting" forests.)

Are you kidding? FDR would rejoice seeing how once proud and free country was turned into a police state, not without his help.
In one of his videotaped constitution classes, previous LP presidential candidate Michael Badnarik said that he would "piss on FDR's grave" at least once before he died. I once thought that to be admirable; now, mostly just detestable.
