The President is a gentleman and a statesman and a leader; a pearl that swine just can't stand.

There is a big difference between a gentleman and a chump. Bush is a chump. A chump takes his shoes off in a mosque 5 days after 9/11. A statesman would never have done so. Say what you will about FDR, but it would have been unimaginable for him to have visited a Shinto shrine 5 days after Pearl Harbor.

FDR wasn’t relying on the help of millions of Japanese to assist us against Tojo. The comparison is invalid.

Well he did know the attack was coming and that a war mobilization waas the only way to reapir the dammage his failed socilaist policies had done to an already depressed economy.

That about covers it.
