I've always thought Lehmann-Haupt was left-wing, myself. It has been awhile since I've read anything he wrote, but I firmly formed that impression over many years. As for being the most apolitical person at the New York Times, surely you must be aware how faint that praise is.;^)

As for Wills on Reagan on Pearl Harbor, John Garfield wasn't black, so what's the point? Regardless of whether the service was integrated or segregated, a black man surely could have used a machine gun against the Japanese at Pearl Harbor. But as for that changing segregation, I don't know. I think it's a cheap and even cheesy shot to bring up John Garfield to refute Reagan, but if you can find a movie with a black man doing what Reagan describes, I'd change my tune.
