Well well...according to this new book the Progressive/Fascist Left's hero FDR may have had severe mental problems during the war years due to a tumor in his brain.
We hear much from the kooky left about Reagan's issues, but now the most radical left wing president in history (exceptions for BO) was mentally impaired. FDR was also the most arrogant and narcissistic president (common to lefties) of all time, but again exceptions could be made for Bubba and BO.
Well maybe its a good thing. Had FDR inserted himself into the war effort like the left's other hero LBJ did in Vietnam, we might have lost the war.

The death of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1945 sent shock waves around the world. His lifelong physician swore that the president had always been a picture of health. Later, in 1970, Roosevelt’s cardiologist admitted he had been suffering from uncontrolled hypertension and that his death—from a cerebral hemorrhage—was “a cataclysmic event waiting to happen.” But even this was a carefully constructed deceit, one that began in the 1930s and became acutely necessary as America approached war.
In this great medical detective story and narrative of a presidential cover-up, an exhaustive study of all available reports of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s health, and a comprehensive review of thousands of photographs, an intrepid physician-journalist team reveals that Roosevelt at his death suffered from melanoma, a skin cancer that had spread to his brain and abdomen. Roosevelt’s condition was not only physically disabling, but also could have affected substantially his mental function and his ability to make decisions in the days when the nation was imperiled by World War II.
