Think his point is that Lucky Lindy was, in fact, a supporter of ol' Adolph 

Lindy said many stupid, some racist, things in favor of isolation. He also admitted when he was wrong, got his ass into a cockpit, and flew 50 combat missions in World War 2. Not bad for a former President.

We’re all sitting in the dugout. Thinking we should pitch. How you gonna throw a shutout when all you do is bitch.

Least the US Army Air Corp was thoughtful enough to place Lindy in the Pacific Theatre so he wouldn't have any "issues" !

Nobody gets to pick where they’re deployed during the biggest war ever. In fact, he wasn’t deployed. He went as a civilian after convincing the Navy to allow him to be technical advisor. He also wrote in his diaries about atrocities committed by American and Australian soldiers against the Japanese. Not bad for a former President.

The FDR administration at work in the 1930’s. Lindbergh, above anyone else, sounded the alarm at how truly and deeply France and Britain were screwed if a war broke out with Germany. Not bad for a former President. He should be an MSNBC analyst.

FDR sent him there because that was the feeling in a vast majority of the country. The country was united in this until somebody killed thousands of Americans in a day.

Lindy was a man who was born in stupid, racist times; and said stupid, racist things. But he was not a Nazi. He was not a Nazi sympathizer. He was a kid who liked airplanes and grew up to be the best in the world at flying them. He became famous for it. Somebody murdered his baby. He financed a criminal investigation that for the time was remarkably intelligent. For all these things, he was famous, so people listened to him when he said stupid, racist, isolationist things. We all would have listened to him had we been born and lived in those times.

When he saw he was wrong, he fought tooth and nail to fight murderous authoritarian regimes, wherever the authorities would let him. His intuitive knowledge of aviation saved more lives in the war than any dumbass that still drags him through the mud all these years later ever will. He fought, and taught, in combat when the greatest generation died like flies.

Drag the right all day long. But leave Lindy alone. He did his best.

There’s been a lot of shockingly dumb things said on this board over the years, but this one is right at the top. The only thing this post accomplishes is it highlights that stupid is alive and well on this board, and that you’re an extremist. 
3, 2, 1....”Well, well, well that is just too funny Convert, because you prove over and over every day that you’re the dumbest person in our galaxy, and beyond....you, you, you everything-a-phobic.”
