[charlie and algernon]

[valerief]

1. The Baldwins! nt

[charlie and algernon]

3. heh, that didn't take long

[valerief]

8. It was a tossup between them and the Osmonds. nt

[Liberal_in_LA]

17. Don't forget about the Jacksons!

[ShenandoahAspen]

[valerief]

13. Aw, that's what makes them perfect. Every family has nutcase like him. nt

[flvegan]

2. Rockefeller.

:hide:

[charlie and algernon]

5. the hide-a-smiley makes more sense if you had said the Bushes

Rockefellers at least created a shit load of jobs and helped build our infrastructure.

[flvegan]

7. Yeah, but for all they've done

there's a LARGE segment of DU that will hate them, regardless, especially considering the choices given.

[charlie and algernon]

10. sure, in fact TR went after Rockefeller's Standard Oil for being a monopoly

[Libertas1776]

4. Oh

I can't decide, I am split between the Kennedys and the Roosevelts (although the Roosevelts in themselves can be technically considered two families, the Hyde Park Rose-vults and the Oyster Bay Ruse-a-velts. But that's a whole 'nother matter) I would have to say both.

[charlie and algernon]

6. they're still all cousins

teddy, FDR, and Eleanor. all cousins. to each other.

[LonelyLRLiberal]

9. I wavered, too, but decided on the Kennedys.

The Kennedys have many, many family members working for the good of the downtrodden and powerless, both in and out of government.

[MrScorpio]

12. My family, Of Joe Louis Barrow fame

But that's just me

[SmileyRose]

[ShortnFiery]

24. How bout' "yours and mine" + all other thoughtful American Families?

:patriot: :toast:

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

15. I think it's the Bushes

If you're talking about biggest assholes.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

16. Or one could add the Shermans

General William Tecumseh Sherman who laid a serious ass whoppin on the white racist secessionist south.

His brother John Sherman was the principal author of the "Sherman Anti-Trust Act" that was used to break up monopolies like Standard Oil. Both were Republicans.

[proteus_lives]

28. "Both were Republicans."

Back when that was an honorable thing.

It would be great to have Republicans like them and TR again.

[Warren DeMontague]

18. The Keseys.

Yogurt, Psychedelic Buses... what more do you need?

[Drunken Irishman]

19. Hard to beat the Roosevelts, but I think the Kennedys rival 'em.

[Skittles]

Their decisions and acts affect us today.
