The idea that we "ceded" Eastern Europe at Yalta is one of the most discredited ideas (urban legends) of the second half of the 20th century. What the hell were we supposed to do, start a war with the Soviets in the summer of 1945 with the war in the Pacific still raging? While Yalta was in February of 1945, Roosevelt and Churchill recognized that the Red Army's advance into Poland made Stalin's plans for the most important country in Europe fait accompli. It meant the "London Poles" would have no effective role in the post-war Warsaw administration, dominated by the communist "Lublin committee." Besides, any historian worth his or her salt will tell you that the Potsdam agreement had a far great effect on the future of European governments in post-war years. But, I'll spare all on the thread embellishment of that idea unless necessary.

Will majored in history at Princeton and I believe he taught it there as well, he knows what he's talking about. Certainly he never taught history there. All of us majored in something, somewhere. And? It means we know what we're talking about? On the basis of an undergraduate major? Gimme a break. They both got all their power through their husbands, but Hillary is a doormat. Many will laugh at your characterization of Hillary as a "doormat". As much as Nancy Reagan was, and then some. Edith appears to have been a species of bimbo. Will is not partisan... Heavens no! Even HE would laugh at this statement.
