I am old enough to remember WW II as a child, and there was some knowledge out there that thousands of Germans were repatriated to Germany in the phase after the Second World war, but the details never were well known.

I read somewhere that Joe Dimaggio's father was detained for a while.

The internment of Japanese was stupid, especially since they were not interned in the only part of America where their disloyalty was a real threat (Hawaii), but the issue is far more complex than today's liberal agenda allows for. The myth as it stands is too good a stick to beat on America with.

Interesting that "America" is responsible, since Democrats controlled all three branches of government at this time.

I could respect Michelle Malkin if she would answer one simple question: has she ever filed an immigration petition on behalf of any of her Filipino relatives?

I asked her this question point-blank in an immigration-reform chat room she was participating in, and she refused to answer.

FWIW, some Jews behave somewhat the same way, as if recognizing that others also suffered under Nazi, Commie and other oppression would detract from their status as uber-victims.

Guess what, a liberal fascist Democrat FDR did it. He even enlisted women and feminists for support of the cause.
