         Are we proud we exercised restraint and allowed tens of millions 
to be killed by Communism in the USSR and Red China?  No.  Instead 
Roosevelt fawned and simpered over Stalin and FDR shoved through diplomatic 
relations with "Uncle Joe."  Stalin's mass homicides and his show trials in 
the 1930s didn't interfere with FDR's love affair with Stalin, nor did they 
interfere with the same love affair of domestic left-wing extremists (who 
were so violently anti-fascist).

         In order of death toll, Mao Tse-tung was worst, followed by 
Stalin, Lenin, Hitler, and (probably) Pol Pot.

         Funny isn't it, how we continue to maintain diplomatic relations 
withour "ungrateful European friends."
