Squandering Our Victory At Sea Sponsored By The GOP

It should be torches and pitchforks everywhere a Republican shows up to campaign because they squandered our 'Victory at Sea" during WWII. And if you want to see what they have done to us since they came to power just watch that television series and think. THEY HAVE SCUTTLED EVERY ATTEMPT TO PUT BUY AMERICAN PRODUCTS into our stimulus package and other legislation they hate working people so much. They care more about Chinese and Indian families than they do American families. Judge them by their actions.

We now have rust belts and closed factories thanks to them. Romney wanted to close the factories that not only won WWI it saved the world by building the war equipment that saved Britain from almost sure surrender. In fact the GOP was against FDR's lend lease program to Great Britain when it was on the verge of collapse.

Victory At Sea was produced by NBC in the early fifties when we had decent media. It shows how our manufacturing actually built almost all of the equipment that supplied both war theaters in the Pacific and in Europe. We made tens of thousands of bombers, fighters, tanks, trucks, ships, jeeps, and all the vehicles needed in our auto plants. We made most of the ammunition, uniforms, bedding, and all the things soldiers needed to fight. We produced tons and tons of food for ourselves, our military and the world. Common people bough war bonds to fund the war.

After WWII the GOP opposed the GI bill, national health care, decent pay for workers including our veterans, and unions. They passed Taft Hartley. Even then they opposed clean water and environment. So what good are the GOPPERS.

If the GOP had been in charge in 1940 we would have lost WWII.

Now Mittwit will run trashing Obama for saving General Motors and the car industry. Romney is not on the side of the American people or the American Worker and Ryan is a traitor because we will have to borrow trillions of dollars from the Chinese to pay for tax breaks for the likes of the Koch brothers who salute another flag and not ours.

That traitorous bastard and his traitorous banks helped finance the Nazi war effort. When Britain declared war on Germany, P. Bush was quoted as saying, "If only I could have talked to Mr. Hitler, this whole thing [war] could have been avoided..." In other words, "Mr. Hiltler" was his friend....

And we elected his demon spawn for president twice. Bush--synonymous with 'criminal enterprise.'
