"That said, I think the answer to the question whether 
it is ever right to ally with or support brutal 
oppressive regimes who oppose our own enemies is: it 
depends. It was absolutely right to ally with the 
Stalinist USSR against Hitler, don't we all agree?"

Uh... the U.S. didn't ally itself with the USSR to fight against Hitler, but 
to expand and consolidate its economic interests. Was this "right?" Not on 
those grounds. Tens of thousands of Jews died as a result of U.S. immigration 
quotas. Are you suggesting the that US alligned itself with Russia on some 
sort of moral basis?
