Heard some bigwig in the Dhimmicrat party yesterday (meet the press I think) defend Wright’s speeches as the truth.

One thing that struck me funny was when he demanded to know why we had to drop a second A-Bomb on Japan when one was clearly more than enough.

Well, Mr. Leftwing Historical Ignoramus - the Japanese refused to surrender after the first one.

Just goes to prove, you HAVE to be ignorant to be a leftist/dhimmirat.

I'm in the middle of reading "Flags of Our Fathers", which is an account of what happened on Iwo Jima and the fate of the 6 flag raisers on Mt. Suribachi. Almost every one of the 22,000 Japanese defenders of Iwo were killed and our own casualties were enormous. And this was just a tiny island hundreds of miles away from mainland Japan, but was considered Japanese homeland.

Now imagine how hard they would have fought if we had tried an invasion of the main island of Japan???? How many Japanese would have been killed??? Many, many times more than what were lost at Nagasaki and Hiroshima.

So many Purple Hearts were made in anticipation of a Japanese invasion, that since it didn't happen, they are still awarding Purple Hearts today, that were made during WWII. My grandfather could have been awarded one or even killed, but thankfully we dropped 2 atomic bombs and ended the war before he had to ship out. I thank Harry S. Truman for my life.

I for one, will never feel sorry for dropping 2 A-bombs on Japan. They deserved far worse, but luckily their vanquishers, were morally superior to them.
