All of you Jakes have it wrong. Remember, in 1973 she had a hit record called ‘The Boogie-woogie Bugle of Company B’. It was a recycled song from the War.

See, she is an expert on WWII.

Like any politician, they were pushing to get votes. The Germans and Italians generally, did not want the US fighting against their (former) countrymen. The Irish were not willing to support the British in a war. One can understand why the Pubbies did this, though as a Canadian who had relatives in both WW1 and WW2, I have a difficult time with the two year delay in fighting Naziism.

In Canada, our government declared war one week after Britain did, the delay was a sop to Quebec and required Prime Minister MacKenzie King promised no conscription to get Quebec on-side. English Canada was massively for the war while Quebec was isolationist, not wanting to fight an ‘English’ war.

That’s just so stoopit and funny.

Yup. History is never so simple that it can be accurately portrayed in a 140 character tweet and morons shouldn’t even try.

Of course Ike wanted to prolong the war. So that he could be a big war hero and maybe served 4 elected terms like FDR.

Just be eternally grateful that FDR’s pro-Stalinist VP was replaced by Harry S Truman before he died in office.

Funny, when Republican President Dwight Eisenhower wanted to push through Civil Rights Legislation in 1959, a Democrat named Lyndon Baines Johnson blocked it.

Not as funny, Democrat Al Gore Sr. and Bill Clinton’s Mentor, Senator Fulbright both Voted against the Civil Rights Act in 1964.

I won’t bother going on about a certain former KKK member who happened to be a Democrat that fought it tooth and nail.

Bette must have spent most of her life sucking on lemons to get a puss like that. She has a miserable looking sour puss on her face 24/7.

according to the single IQ'ed Better, the GOP is also the reason why her milk got spoilt after she left it outside for 2 weeks. The GOP is also the reason why her television just shows the same program over and over again, of a whirlwind

p.s., Bette's television (or so she thinks):

And does this pathetic old hose bag have any facts to back up her outrageous claim about the GOP wanting to lose the war?
