Department of Historical Errors By Senators and/or Congressmen

“How much time did we have to win World War II? Did we ever think about just fighting the Germans and not engaging the Japanese?” Senator Lindsey Graham, (R-SC)

I hate to be a historical stickler, but yes, yes did just think about engaging the Japanese and not the Germans. After Pearl Harbor, Congress declared war only on the Japanese, followed by Germany declaring war on us.

In other news, I’m not sure why Congressman Murtha was being particularly cordially towards Mr. Cheney on Meet the Press today, even when pressed for a response.
