I understand that your grandfather hated the Japanese and he probably felt justified for doing so.

I harbored the same feelings for a long time toward the Japanese as well.

There are a lot of people who hate Americans for whatever reasons, justified or not. Are they correct in doing so?

Are they correct in hating all of us or just some of us? I was able to cast off the feelings I had for the Japanese because it wasn't hurting them, it was hurting me.

It's behavior, not nationality that should be examined and then praised or eradicated. We kicked the Japanese's ass and now they are complacent, and our allies for the most part.

Look, I agree. The fact that you could cast off the hate, and McCain could not simply makes my original point. The guy wants to be President, and he can’t get past hating ‘The Gooks’.
