  • Thank God Edward never remained King! What a bastard.....

  • Britain certainly had a lucky escape. I shudder to imagine how things would have turned out if he hadn't abdicated.

  • A dangerous, vain coward.

    Any other traitor would have been shot; this is the danger of hereditary monarchy.

  • If you are interested the one Congress Person who voted against declaring war on Japan was Jannette Rankin - Republican of Montana on December 8,1941.

  • @TimpleTapper It is very easy to check out votes on any subject that comes before the American Government - the vote in the Senate was 82 in favour - none opposed - in the House of Representatives 388 in favour - one opposed. It is difficult to lie about a public vote -- Americans were very angry about being attacked by Japan - the one person who was opposed to declaring war on Japan was either very courageous or very foolish. it all depends on how you look at it!

  • @TimpleTapper than you believe wrong or have read different information than I have. I read that the vote was close of course Americans do tend to lie about their own history so it does not surprise that in America the truth was changed like it was in many cases such as the war with Spain and its causes

  • @truvianni - I believe that only one Congress person voted against 'Declaring war on Japan' - all Senators voted in favour of declaring war on Japan - that's pretty close to unanimous - a few votes would have changed nothing - history is what it is! We can learn from it but we can't change it.

  • Our congress did declare war on Japan as everybody knows yet what was odd is that the decision to go to war with Japan was far from unanimous in fact many voted against the war and with a few more votes they might have won

  • Oh christ here come the nutters in their rubber lederhosen and clutching soggy autographed photos of John Tyndall in full SS paraphernalia.

  • @JuanMacready  It is a decent place to live. Rule, Britannia.
