The media's fellatio of the Obama Administration just rolls on and on. The author of this article notes that a US Carrier is anchored near the site of where Doug MacArthur waded ashore at Leyte, "The Site of one of the US's biggest victories". The only problem with that statement is that there were almost no Japanese on Leyte when the Americans arrived, the realization of which startled the Americans and caused them to hurriedly advance their plans for the landings in Lingayen Gulf on the Island of Luzon, January, 1945. Wonder if that guys doc is able to pick up the traces of the administration's shoe polish on the authors tongue when he goes in for a check up.

Not seeing the big deal.

"The Battle of Leyte Gulf" is seen as the defining battle of the Philippine campaign, where the last elements of the Imperial Japanese Navy were eliminated. 4 carriers, 3 battleships and 10 cruisers were sunk.
