...Winston Churchill, about as anti-communist as they came, famously said, "If Hitler invaded Hell, I would at least make favorable reference to the Devil in the House of Commons."

We don't have to like or admire Bush, but in this dire case for the moment, the enemy of our enemy is our friend.

Stalin was one of the worst people ever to have lived. But he had more to do with the defeat of Hitler than any other leader.
