One of the most diverting aspects of the debate over President Obama’s stimulus plan has been the concerted conservative attack on the New Deal.

One might have thought that voters of that day had pretty much settled the question of whether the New Deal worked by enthusiastically reelecting FDR, and not once but three times. But since right-wing revisionism is really an arrow aimed at the current stimulus plan, the effort to discredit the New Deal is worth examining. Source
