Tortured WWII analogistics have long been a staple here, the primary variant being that insufficient enthusiasm for W's war made one akin to Chamberlain, I think.

As far as D-Day goes, I think you are perhaps using retrospect in an unconventional fashion. In retrospect, the Germans were pretty dead by then, the Russian front and all that. As far as Western Europe goes, my understanding is that the main problem there was that so much time and effort was wasted in not-terribly-strategic Italy before D-Day, though I'm not sure whose idea that was.

The humor angle is something else again. I hear that Rush is allegedly an entertainer, when it's convenient anyway. Me, I'm more into the "you can't fight in here, this is the war room" school.
