But -- Bone didn't say Hitler, he didn't say Germany (or Italy), he didn't even say European theater. He said "before we got into WW2". Our entry into WWII, as far as I know, was against Japan in response to the attack on Pearl Harbor. His "japan" response then narrowed the parameters. I didn't respond because I felt that doing so would have led to a full-fledged hijacking of this thread rather than a diversion, and also because I'm no expert in regard to what liberals were saying/thinking pre-WWII regarding a response to Churchill's call for help. I will say that any comparison of our involvement in Europe during WWII and our unsolicited and essentially unilateral invasion of Iraq seems at least as ridiculous than the comparisons of Hilter to GW.
