Don't take it personally, Bill, but here's how President Roosevelt explained Lend-Lease:
"Your neighbour's house is on fire. He comes to you, and asks if he can have your hose. You say, 'I will not give you my hose. But I will lend it to you. You can borrow it to put out your fire. And when the fire is out, you will return it to me'". If I was Mr. Lewis I would send Mr. Bush a hose!
