I'm convinced that the only reason the Left didn't protest World War II was because Hitler invaded their hero-nation, the Soviet Union. If you look at American History, the unity our nation had in WW II was an abberation, not the norm. The Revolution had as many Loyalists as Patriots. The Civil War had Copperheads trying to destroy America with the North, while the Rebels tried to destroy America in the south, WW I had Bolshevist agitators, and we all know what happened in Vietnam and today in Iraq (although I'm pretty sure the bedwetters would be protesting Afghanistan if they thought they'd get the chance).

Too bad the Democrat Party has become infested with these twinkletoes...America needs two viable political parties.

I agree that the reason the Left didn’t protest World War II was because Hitler invaded their hero-nation, the Soviet Union but also of note is that the POTUS, FDR, was not a Republican. If only the Democrat Party would be finished off in this election, they are one with all of the enemies of this country!

Actually, the left were against the war during the period of time when Hitler & Stalin were making nice nice with each other. Once Hitler invaded the Soviet Union, they “flipped” their opinion.

Good observation. The left adamantly defended the hideous Nazi/Soviet pact and thus fought the possibility of entry into World War Two. When their precious, murderous, Soviet Union was invaded, they turned on a dime and screamed and screeched for the US and Britain to assist Communist Russia.
