YOU SHOULD VISIT THE STATUE OF LIBERTY!

Lady Liberty!

Lady Liberty has greeted countless of our immigrants, and countless of our returning soldiers, sailors, and airmen over the years.

“Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!."

I say the same now as I said a half-century ago: Let those who want to join our American Nation enter – Let them put their blood into the Melting Pot into which all of us have given our blood, both in the bed and on the battlefield.

Let them enter legally, as my ancestors entered over two centuries ago!!

E Pluribus Unam!

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...hope your day went reasonably well, and that your new meds are starting to do their job.

I am off for home.

Great message, Conor.

My two grandfathers arrived in the late 1800’s from Sweden and Denmark. I’m so proud of them becoming naturalized citizens and passing that citizenship on to their sons and daughters.

I have a book that one of my grandparents used to study to become US Citizens. So proud of them!
