"We Have Nothing to Fear Except Fear Itself!"

Remember FDR telling us this - if not from actual memory, than from the constant replaying of it as one of the great statements by an American leader?

Yet all the Bushies have handed us is fear. They want us to live in it, wallow in it, shape our lives by it.

How can any true leader and his (or someday, her) administration offer fear as the steady diet for the American people? Unless, of course, he has something substantial to gain by our fear.
