FDR did take big risks with going forward with the D-Day campaign. As Villages Kahuna pointed out.
This is an interesting article from Joe Scarborough-- Opinion: The courage to come home - Joe Scarborough - POLITICO.com |
The OP posited that there are no politicians today of the caliber of those in the past that he admired for making tough decisions without regard to their personal impact.
I submitted that I thought George W. Bush is indeed of that same caliber. I never said he made exactly the same decisions as those leaders did, but that he would have, without question.
George W. Bush proved time and again that he put the nation before himself.
There is no contemporary of his you can say this about.
