My buddy's Dad, a staunch Rep. would disagree with you vehemently. HST became his hero when he dropped the big ones. You see, he was a combat Marine in the south Pacific and did not relish the thought of invading the Japanese mainland.

I'm saying we were perfectly justified in dropping the nukes on Japan. It is the left that tries to saddle us with the charge of racism over that, and it is the left that will try to saddle us with the charge of racism when we try to close our border and evict the illegals. I reject their charges and further speculate that we are ready as a country to reject this guilt. Is that a little clearer?

Estimates were, from what I have heard, it could have cost us a million lives. The Japanese would have fought for ever inch of ground using gorilla warfare.
