In 1933, FDR said that the only thing we had to fear is fear itself.

Today's GOP has a very different tone:

"You've heard of mental depression; this is a mental recession," [Former Texas Senator and adviser to John McCain's campaign] said. "We may have a recession; we haven't had one yet."

"We have sort of become a nation of whiners," he said. "You just hear this constant whining, complaining about a loss of competitiveness, America in decline."

I must ask GOP supporters: How does it feel to be once again on the wrong side of History?
