Obummer conveniently forgets what Teddy Roosevelt said of
Immigrants in both 1915, and again in 1918 How our allegiance must be purely to the United States... and how there is no room for divided allegiance here ...One language, English... One loyalty to the American people. ‘ I wonder how Roosevelt’s
statement that “... we are to stand by the President ,right or wrong is not only unpatriotic,and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” Where was there any mention of the FAIR TAX” in that speech on equality?
I missed it. And Where was the 0 when the Democrats attached Military Appropriations to repeal of Article 125
and doing away with penalty for attempted sodomy and or for
bestiality— es verdad Hussein has been doing the pooch and the American public for years now.

You are obviously a fan of ole Teddy ...as am I ... I found this in the comments section...I love it ...

Theodore Roosevelt on Class and Class Warfare:

“We must now see that there never
comes any spirit of class antagonism in this country,
any spirit of hostility between capitalist and wageworker,
between employer and employed; and we can
avoid the upgrowth of any such feeling by remembering
always to treat each man on his worth as a man. Do not
hold it for him or against him that he is either rich or
poor. If he is a crooked man and rich, hold it against
him, not because he is rich, but because he is crooked.
If he is not a rich man and crooked, hold it against him,
still because he is crooked. If he is a square man, no
matter how much or how little money he has, stand by
him because he is a square man. Distrust more than any
other man in this Republic the man who would try to
teach Americans to substitute loyalty to any class for
loyalty to the whole American people. Republics have
flourished before now, and have fallen; and they have
usually fallen because there arose within them parties
that represented either the unscrupulous rich or the
unscrupulous poor, and that persuaded the majority of
the people to substitute loyalty to the one class for
loyalty to the people as a whole.”
- Theodore Roosevelt, speech at City Park,
Little Rock, Arkansas, 25 October 1905

“Distrust above all other men the
man who seeks to make you pass judgment upon your
fellow citizens upon any ground of artificial distinction
between you and them. Distrust the man who seeks to
get you to favor them or discriminate against them
either because they are well off or not well off, because
they occupy one social position or another, because
they live in one part of the country or another, or
because they profess one creed or another.”
- Theodore Roosevelt at unveiling of monument to dead of 1st U. S. Volunteer
Cavalry, Arlington, April 12, 1907.
