Did FDR torture people?RichClem » 16 Dec 2014 8:47 am » wrote:Did anyone shriek about war crimes and demand prosecution, like today's liberal left is doing?
President Jimmy Carter opened an investigation to determine whether the decision to put Japanese Americans into internment camps had been justified by the government.
And in 1988, President Ronald Reagan signed into law the Civil Liberties Act, which apologized for the internment on behalf of the U.S. government and authorized a payment of $20,000 to each individual camp survivor.
Today the decision by FDR to intern the Japanese is looked upon as a blemish on his record, just like BushCo.'s decision to torture people will be.
