If the dictator of Brazil was a sworn enemy and had been shouting "Death to America" for years, you bet your ass we
would have done the same thing to him.
You forget FDR and Truman were not like today's Democrats. Those guys were anti-communists to the core. They did not hesitate to defend American interests. Today's liberals (post Vietnam) are the remnants of the hippie generation. A huge fucking waste of life if you ask me. To them, America needs to be weak and lower ourselves to everyone else's level economically and militarily.
It still doesn't change the fact that the liberal media in this country is disgusting. They pray for Vietnam in every war.
