By the way, Reagan's reparations went also to descendants of the Japanese Americans interned during WWII, not just those still living.

I'd like to see some evidence of that. My understanding is that they went only to living survivors of camps, which included children.

It did include those born between 1945 and 1948 to Japanese Americans interned (the last camp closed in 1946), though in essence you are correct.

That aside, the point is not the particulars of reparations, but whether a person can support reparations and still be a conservative. What this has to do with a thread about Bush and the ports, ask onyx and the others.

How did this thread get off track? I was asking myself that question, and just discovered the answer. Somebody's fixing to get this thread pulled. Surefire way to do that is start personal attacks on conservatives about everything under the sun. Strategy employed by the knee-jerk Bush apologists to remove an embarrassing thread.

Gotcha.
