Only Yesterday

Was 1942 so long ago? The war rages. Also: Sister Soujourner. Georgetown Reconsidered. Plus much more.

(Page 4 of 15)

Michael Roush /p> p> Mr. Lord is right but forgot some things. We were attacked, no Iraqi attacked us. There was no power of Axis document today as there was in 1942. Clearer threat in 1942: the Japanese had aircraft carriers as we did. I have never seen an Arab carrier . The Germans had the biggest battleship the Bismarck . They had bigger tanks, the Tiger over the Sherman .They had paratroopers, which made us get some. What weapon does any Arab country have bigger then our ships? What troops are we building that they have and we don't? Do the Arabs have the arms of Krupp? He is right: it is not 1942 and these are not the Japanese or Germans. Because of that, Republicans then and Democrats now are not the same.... br> -- Thomas Lindquist br> Grand Rapids, Michigan /p>

Back then both parties knew what had to be done to keep America safe, now the Democrats' only thought is the next election cycle. They think if Muslims were in charge it would not make any difference in their lives and they may be correct. After all they can always sell their souls to the devil, they are on the way to doing that now.

p>If they had a clue and stood 100% behind the President the terrorist would not have the hope that things would get better after the election. Don't they understand they are just prolonging the war. These are the people we want leading our country? NOT! br> -- Elaine Kyle /p> p>
