Inode, > I may be a shithead but I believe in putting America first.

That all depends on what your definition of "putting America first" is.

Interning thousands of Japanese-Americans during WWII might have been the "right thing to do" at the time, but in hindsight it was unnecessary and unjust.

Likewise, I don't approve of what happened at Abu Ghraib, I don't approve of waterboarding, and I don't agree with the legal limbo in which we stick POWs in the war on terrorism. But to claim that Gitmo is just as bad as a Nazi concentration camp or a Siberian gulag is crazy. We need a little perspective here.
