To: Mr. Jeeves
Sure he did: permission to keep what he had captured.

Good point. What Greeley also ignores is that Yalta was merely the culmination of years of efforts by Roosevelt to prevent Western troops from ending up in Eastern Europe. Churchill tried over and over to get Roosevelt to permit campaigns that would put us in Eastern Europe to no avail. In addition, Patton was prevented from moving into Eastern Germany toward the end of the war.

IMHO, Yalta was what Roosevelt had in mind all along.

We sentenced those people to nearly 50 years of hell. You are darn right an apology is in order. This is an acknowledgment that Roosevelt (my family's patron saint) lost the whole poker game with Stalin at Yalta and failed to heed the advice of the greatest man of the century, Winston Churchill.

We gave back territory in Eastern Germany. We pulled our troops back and allowed Soviet troops to pull up and occupy it. Greeley is a modern day Alger Hiss, a stinking liar, and a communist. He still loves and reveres his favorite nation, the Soviet Union.
