"There hasn't been a recovery from the waste and abnormalities of war since the story of mankind was written, except through work and savings, through industry and denial while needless spending and heedless extravagance have marked every decay in the history of nations."............Many historians have tended to marginalize this man (the anti-Hoover, FDR, Bush, and Obama). Perhaps they and we need to give him a second look.
Fiscally Conservative, Socially tolerant, Anti-War

Or maybe they cut their Presidents from a better cloth those days. Even the worst of that era.
Those days, as well as principles, are long gone apparently.
Yeah, that's what we need, "A Return to Normalcy"...
If a return to normalcy means staying out of other countries' entanglements, getting unemployment down to 2.1%, and stopping spending money that hasn't even been printed, then, yeah, I could definitely go for it.
Harding served about 2 and a half years, did some good things, did some bad things. His wife burned all his papers when he died, so
there is info no one will ever know. Probably just as well...
Well, he was corrupt. Even his most die-hard apologists would admit that. But when you look at HIS economic record and compare it to Hoover, FDR, Nixon, Carter, the Bushes, and Obama, the guy ain't bad.
Hear, Hear!
"Well, he was corrupt. Even his most die-hard apologists would admit that."
Was it any worse than Obama and Solindra, GWBush and the no-bid contracts, and the rest of it?
In reality, no.
I had almost typed Obama's greenscam front company as 'Soylindra'. Though I did correct myself, I realize that this company name might come up later in this 2nd Presidential term (ObamaCo 2.0) as the name of a business receiving government grants to solve both the pressing overpopulation problem and the need for a renewable food source... all at the same time.
