Re: Obama's War

Well, Whit, you bring up a nice point.  Let's review the situation in Britain in 1939. When Parliament declared war on Germany, Chamberlain asked both opposition parties, Liberal and Labor, to join his government. They refused.  But what did his biggest critic Winston Churchill do? He accepted appointment to the Prime Ministers Cabinet as First Lord of the Admiralty. In other words, Winston Churchill supported and encouraged Chamberlain, in an effort, no doubt, to stiffen the spine of the Government at a time when Britain was in such peril. We should do no less. After all, history tells us there may not be many opportunities to reward Democrats for right behavior in foreign policy matters.
