J. D. Hayworth, Senator John McCain’s primary opponent in Arizona, fails to get the facts right on World War II:



America never declared war on Hitler’s Germany? So says J.D.



Indeed, the U.S. did declare war on December 11, 1941. The video above has perhaps received the most attention from Hayworth’s speech, but there are a few other worrisome nuggets from the same address.



Does Hayworth not believe in the U.S. counterinsurgency strategy in Afghanistan?



J.D. opposes surge in Afghanistan, says U.S. is “nation building” in the Middle East



It seems that way. And how committed is Hayworth to winning the war in Afghanistan when he refers U.S. presence there and in Iraq as “occupation”?



J.D. says U.S. presence in Iraq & Afghanistan is an “occupation”
