In case you forgot, both of these presidents were among the greatest presidents we have had.

Many consider their "misdeeds" (suspension of habeas corpus on Lincoln's part, the New Deal on FDR's part) to be evils. I'm inclined to think they were the wrong things done for noble reasons, but doing something bad for a good reason doesn't necessarily make it good. Still, sometimes you have to break the rules and just accept the consequences.

why was the new deal a misdeed? (genuine question here)

Taxes are necessary to prevent us falling back into a state of nature. 350 years and still some people don't get it.

Gays should marry eachother if they want, and be able to adopt, and also join the military.

All right.

Heinous Criminals should be executed.

Except that allowing this inevitably means that non-heinous criminals and non-criminals end up dying.

Legalize all drugs.

Gun control, NO!

Then "increased accidental death rate" yes!

God (probably) does not exist.

Who knows...

Taxes are a necessary evil, and govt should not be too big or too small.
We should follow federalism, and allow individual states to decide on gay marriage - we should probably change in this area, but should do so slowly, so the culture can adjust.
I dont follow the drug debates real closely.
Some gun control is just common sense - extreme gun control is probably not justified, based on current studies.
Its pointless for me to discuss God with people who dont have the foggiest idea of the different concepts of God that have been important in Judaism, both historically and recently.
Its too early to determine how good a president FDR was. Discussions of Lincoln are apt to attract cranks. Revisionism on Jefferson has gone too far, I think.
