So much has changed since then.

Back then, our leaders and the media were solidly and unabashedly on our side against the Axis powers. Now, it seems like they are all siding with the enemy.

Considering that Truman didn’t even know about the Bomb when he took office, he certainly made the right choice to go ahead, as any sane person would have, any person who was sick of the war and the carnage, and wanted it to be over.

Listen to or read any contemporary news reporting of the war-it’s almost shocking to hear pro-American bias from the news media!

The one thing that surprises me is that the LGBTQ Nazis haven’t demanded that the word “Gay” be stricken from the nose of that aircraft, and from the historical record of the event.

Excellent points FRiend, and on the subject of Truman being unaware of the very existence of the atomic bomb when he took office, if you’ve not seen it, I highly recommend Gary Sinise’s portrayal of Truman in the movie of the same name (released in 1995) he nails the character and the scenes in which Truman is first informed of the Manhattan Project and his subsequent decision to drop the bombs are (IMHO) exceedingly well done.

America had the will & means to finish the war and it's good she did.
America was also a different country, united and sure of itself, proud of it's traditions and willing to go all out to win, no matter how many of the enemy were killed.

Then, Vietnam happened and self-doubt and self-hatred grew and mushroomed. Then the revisionists stepped in and now there is no longer good or evil, right or wrong or justice or crime. It's all blurred now and millions cannot differentiate between these opposites.

America SHOULD have woken up on 9/11 and she did for a few months. Then, after the Bush years, she went to sleep again.

It doesn't matter now because events will push America to the brim once again and she will have to choose sides, be united or sink with Europe...

They’d have a helluva explanation to make since ENOLA GAY was Paul Tibbets’ mother’s name.

We need to return to America first and take back our educational institutions from the left wing America haters and kick some butt to straighten this country out.

“Gay” was Tibbetts’ mother’s middle name. Would the LGBTPDQs demand that Mom’s name be changed, as well? That USED TO BE an honorable, utilitarian word, with only pure and happy connotations.
