It is not like our country has not overlooked things before or since fdr. Crap, look at all the trash countries we are in bed with today, whether it be for business or the war on terror.
Yet you feel compelled to apologize for FDR.
And it’s not any more right now than it was then.

True as that may be, I’m at a loss as to why we’d have bothered with the commies at the time. I realize the enemy of my enemy is my friend, but the Soviets were either going to go on being buddies with the nazis or they weren’t. We had, so far as I can see, absolutely no say in the matter. You can argue that, assuming the Soviets cared a fig about what some random American citizens said (which is a huge assumption), had we dishonored them they would have been less apt to deal with us in the future. Except if you’ll recall, we had this 50 years of what people called a “cold war” with them anyway, despite our politeness.
