And if we'd been loyal American's of Japanese ancestry, we'd have been behind barbed war with our children, and impoverished by the plundered of our goods. So would JCD, had he been Japanese American, of course, but I take it he wouldn't have objected to the treatment.

that is one of the very good things about America- we are, at this moment, free to hold those diametrically opposing views. I think what E and I may find ironic, is that during the time those hearings took place, views like ours (E and me) about those hearings, would have been proof of commie leanings.

Right. Thanks.

Yes, well of course I was pointing out that how one views Joe McCarthy may now be proof of fascist leanings.

Surely there is irony in that ????

To be sure, either then or now ... it was (is) proof only in the minds of some.
