"What you also do not care to describe is that immigrants are less extravagant, spoiled, and attached to conveniences than we, Americans."

The above statement is racist!!

Most of the Indians I work with have grown up with more conveniences than anyone in my family.

OK, how many days have you slept in a fox-hole in the rain? Not one of my foreign coworkers has slept in the rain -- but thousands of Americans have that is called the military.

Are you sure you are a conservative? You surely internalized the mentality and methods of the liberals.

This statement is not racist: it applies to all immigrants, including your forefathers, whereever they hailed from.

But I do see that you have problems not only with envy but with other commandments as well. Have you heard of not making a false accusations? If you accuse someone of racism, you have a duty to at least explain why my statement appears racist to you. Instead, you simply throw it to me.

YOu have no right to accuse people so lightly. And I do take offense at your statement. You should wash your mouth with soap. I do not know much about your son, and I am grateful to him for his service to his country. But he surely has a morally confused mother for a parent.

Have a good day.

And what percentage of OUR college aid kids have ever served in the military, much less slept in the rain (other than waiting in line for concert tickets)? Seems like you always play with the facts to make your arguement appear stronger than it really is.
