Something funny.

Most people may know that Roosevelt and Hitler intensely disliked each other. What you may not know is that Roosevelt's birthday was on January 30! The very date Hitler came to power. I got a good laugh when I found that out. Boy what a birthday present that must have been for Roosevelt. :D

Hitler disliked Roosevelt, which he had called various names(most of them related to Roosevelt's support for Jews), but I haven't found yet speech samples to show Roosevelt's attitude towards Hitler. :?

I remember a story from my German teacher. Apparently, Hitler (fustrated with the setbacks on the eastern front) screamed in his bunker 'Wer regiert die grosse Welt?' ('who rules the entire world?'), the echo replying 'Rosewelt' :P
