Well he was in FACT very UNCONSERVIATIVE. And the FACT that he Stalled
the Recovery by an IDIOTIC TAX raise making the TAXES on Income over
a specified amount 100% is the perfect example.

TAX THE RICH!!! Heard that one lately

And as for what he did accidently that worked was ONLY Temporary.
Having GOVERMENT do everything is Stupid and has NEVER solved a problem.
After the "Project" was over everythiong disappeared and left nothing
behind except for a Building, PARK OR WHATEVER for HIM to get his
picture takEn in front OF. NO Company, No employes NOTHING. ALL those
that were Unemployed before the project were unemployed again.
