Clifford D. May at National Review Online has written on Condoleezza Rice & 9/11 Commission. Whatever other nonsense there may be in May’s article, you’ve got to howl at this sentence: “President Roosevelt waited until after World War II to put in place a commission to investigate what mistakes led to Pearl Harbor.”
FDR appointed a commission to look into Pearl Harbor on December 18, 1941, 11 days after the attack. But there is an even more glaring error in the sentence. Figured it out?
Thanks to Roger Ailes for the discussion on this.
President Roosevelt died April 18, 1945. The Japanese surrendered on September 2, 1945.
I guess it was april 13 that FDR died. I stand corrected.
