During the 3-1/2 years of World War 2 that started with the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941 and ended with the Surrender of Germany and Japan in 1945,
"We the People of the U.S.A." produced the following:
22 aircraft carriers,
8 battleships,
48 cruisers,
349 destroyers,
420 destroyer escorts,
203 submarines,
34 million tons of merchant ships,
100,000 fighter aircraft,
98,000 bombers,
24,000 transport aircraft,
58,000 training aircraft,
93,000 tanks,
257,000 artillery pieces,
105,000 mortars,
3,000,000 machine guns, and
2,500,000 military trucks.
We put 16.1 million men in uniform in the various armed services, invaded Africa, invaded Sicily and Italy, won the battle for theAtlantic, planned and executed D-Day, marched across the Pacific and Europe, developed the atomic bomb, and ultimately conquered Japan and Germany.
It's worth noting, that during the almost exact amount of time, the Obama Administration couldn't even build a web site that worked.

Proves the point that the left is victim to the Peter Principle...reached their level of incompetence.
But you don't understand, html is HARD!
It's hard to work when you're too busy trying to find your head.
With the way government hiring is actually accomplished nowadays, I'm not surprised!
Internal candidates are given priority and allowed to move around every couple of years or so to hide their incompetence while getting a crony promotion job. Too many of them shouldn't even get Melwood jobs. Really qualified candidates can't get in past the myriad puzzle of application submission because it requires someone on the inside to help.
They killed Bin Laden
8:07 Are you pointing out an accomplishment or is this sarcasm?
Yes 8:07 and in return for his trophy Obama gave them back an over loaded helicopter full of some of the best warriors on the planet. I doubt that was a coincidence. Most treasonous man to ever run the country. That is the only accomplishment I recall he ever made.
False, we did not develop the Atomic Bomb, we just miniaturized it and used it the first time ever... Germany, or should I say, Albert Einstein Developed the Atomic Bomb in Germany, and fled Germany to come here to the states so that Hitler would not be able to use it... That is the wunderwaffe (super weapon) Hitler kept hinting about...
And America's population was about 1/2 of what it is today during WW II.
