FDR had already committed American resources to the war, he was just waiting for a pretext strong enough to justify going all in.

Even the trade sanctions against Japan, was designed with this reason in mind.

He came from serious Japanese money. He has since worked as a CTO in minor dotcom undertakings.

Montage is similar as a leftist with enough of an open mind to deal with this blog but he has nowhere near Mitsu’s horsepower.

No way Mitsu would have mumbled something conciliatory to neo and feebly thrown back a stupid link from a disgruntled conservative.

We would still be dealing multi-screen Mitsu rebuttals.

Europe is very far gone.

I always felt that either these people weren’t paying close attention or Europe is far more gone that I believed. Or both.

Montage does indeed resemble Mitsu. But he/she does not appear to be the same person.

Also, Mitsu was a lot more long-winded.

I have to say I do not view Obama as a ‘leftist’. He was fairly moderate.

Which is why Obama kicked off his political career at a “meet the candidate” affair at the household of those well known “moderates,” Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn.
I guess that five bombs are more moderate than a hundred bombs- but then Billy Boy on 9/11/2001 told us he regretted he didn’t do more- bomb more? “Moderates” like Bill and Bernadine considered Sirhan Sirhan a political prisoner, doncha’ know? I refer to Prairie Fire.

Montage reminds me of long-gone commenter Mitsu.

Moderate, schmoderate.

I do not know whence you get your history, but TR gave birth to the Progressive Party. That is was not as full-blown at birth as it is now should come as no surprise. Adults are no longer infants!
