The only thing we have to fear…

Poll: Most feel civil liberties not harmed by war on terror

While 39 percent of the 1,013 poll respondents said the Bush administration has gone too far, 34 percent said they believe the administration has been about right on the restrictions, according to the Opinion Research Corp. survey. Another 25 percent said the administration has not gone far enough.

People are letting their fear control their lives. FDR would be so disappointed. He must be spinning in his grave.

So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.

Where is our FDR? Who will bring hope back to this nation of fear and despair? I don’t know. I just don’t see that person on our horizon.
