Yes, but .... well, to be .... um... gulp.
To be fair to Hank (man, THAT was hard to say), Stalin didn't say it was okay for the Nazis to kill American troops.
And FDR was the Commander-in-Chief. It's one thing for the CinC to decide that policy requires cooperating with the devil. It's another for a senator to do so.
If Hank's quote is accurate, Kerry should not have met with this guy. Period.
OTOH, Ty, you pointed out quite clearly that Hank's sources maybe a bit, well, fucked, and his quotes somewhat more so. If you could pull this all together in a memo for me, that would help me fully assess the situation.
eta: I read GGG's post, and that doesn't change my mind. I do have a problem with Senators, particularly recent failed Prez'l candidates, putting their noses into foreign policy in this way.
