First of all, this whole question as to which side of the political divide fought the Nazi's is just stupid. Liberal and conservative mean very different things than they did in the 1940's. Being a conservative used to mean that you were against government intervention into a citizen's personal life. The radicalized "conservatism" we see today couldn't be further from that now. Also, for most of my life, conservatives considered Russia to be our enemy. Now we have so-called conservatives telling us that they love Putin. The radicalized psychotics we see today trying to pass themselves off as conservatives are anything but. What they really are is this: mental cases. Both of my very liberal parents were WW2 veterans. Both of my liberal parents were descendants of colonial Americans which means that my family has fought in nearly every declared war this country has been engaged in including the French and Indian wars. I'm a direct male line descendant of one of Bacon's rebels. Of course that won't mean much to the uneducated, look it up. I'm also a direct male line descendant (my great grandfather) of a union soldier in Sherman's army who served initially under U.S. Grant at Shiloh where the fire was so intense that they had to roll over onto their backs to load and roll back on their bellies to fire. That army then took Vicksburg and then sacked and burned Atlanta and marched through Georgia GUTTING the South and leaving no question as to the eventual outcome of the war. When they turned north they gave the Carolina's particular attention as that was where "the trouble" began. My great grandfather served in that war from the first day until the very last. Not many men were so fortunate. On my mother's side, after the French and Indian wars her family followed Daniel Boone on the Wilderness trail into what later became Kentucky. They fought the revolutionary war there. One of her ancestors was a Kentucky minuteman who's frequently mentioned in accounts of various revolutionary war battles in Kentucky which often became (after muskets were discharged and with no time to reload) bloody hand to hand battles with knives and tomahawks. That family followed Boone out of Kentucky and into Missouri and a generation later set out on the Oregon trail a few years before the civil war broke out. On the way most of them were slaughtered in a terrible massacre on August 20th, 1854. Fortunately my gg grandparents survived because they were ahead of the rest of their small party pushing the cows down the trail, keeping them ahead of the oxen powered wagons in order to keep them from breathing the dust. That was the Ward massacre. Now tell me again how unpatriotic and unAmerican liberals are, I like a good laugh. One more thing: My parents loved F.D.R. because he pulled the country out of the depression and he led us through WW2. He was the greatest nazi fighter of all. F.D.R. was and is one of our greatest presidents and he was a HARD CORE LIBERAL. Side: So what?
