Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"The pattern of the future—the future as Hitler seeks to shape it- is now as clear and as ominous as the headlines of today's newspapers."

"I am confident that ways will be found to provide the material and supplies necessary to fight Hitler on all fronts, including your own."

"I want particularly to take this occasion to express my great confidence that your armies will ultimately prevail over Hitler."

"I hereby exempt the said Rutherford H. Baker from compulsory retirement for age for a period of one year ending November 30, 1942."
