  shows up from the other side of the world after 6 years of material and monetary support and recovering from a total economic collapse and fighting a completely different war on the other side of the world and then sticking around for 50 years to rebuild everything for free that you destroyed and make sure you didn’t end up as one of Putin’s puppet states today

  There are many, many things to criticize the US for, but Roosevelt’s handling of WW2 was without a doubt the country’s most noble time.

  I mean, a LOT of young people from the US died to make it happen. Yeah, it was winding down, but people from the US joined up in Canada and Britain and etc to help before the US officially joined. We can recognize their heroic efforts without snark.

  What have you done, boot?

    Well my Canadian family was in the war years before the Americans ended their isolationist policy and only my grandfather returned. We also declared war on Japan after Pearl Harbour before even the USA did.

      So… you’ve stayed away from government service? You decided someone else will fix what you think is wrong with our government?

      How brave… boot.
