You've seen the board rule that basically says 'Don't link and run ... if it ain't worth describing, it ain't worth posting'?

Try obeying it if you want to make a point here that people will attend to.

I hope a GQP strategist doesn’t read this article and get the idea to start calling all the homeless encampments ‘Bidenvilles’. The DNC employed a good strategy of leveraging the press to coin the ‘Hooverville’ term, which they use to this day (I doubt anyone other than the press and political operatives actually called a shanty town a Hooverville). This just goes to show you how determined Leftists and Liberals are when they create and maintain a narrative that’s literally meant to influence public opinion. It feels greasy.

A tad sensitive, are we?

WTF offended you in that post?
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

My point was not the name Hooverville. My point was that an unregulated stock market led to the biggest crash and burn in U.S. history. Hoover's laissez-faire prosperity is just around the corner was wishful thinking.

I understood your point. I just felt like commenting on the propaganda that was successfully employed by Leftists to help get Hoover out of office, and that they continue to use it this day, which I find interesting.

[MODERATOR NOTE: AtlanticMike, universal rule #10 of this message board reads,
  • Do not EVER "link-and-run." If you post a link to something, always explain what's at the other end of the link, why it's important, and what you hope other readers / viewers learn from it. RULE OF THUMB: If it's not worth your time to describe it, then it's not worth our time to click on it.

Please integrate that rule posthaste.]
