"I believe in diversity within a culture, not diversity of cultures. So I am for legal immigration, against illegal immigration, and am opposed to the extremists on both sides."

Just perfect. Do you happen to author those 'Ad Council' commercials we see on the tube?

I see in your Kumbaya world, no one's "right" or "wrong" except those nuts on the "fringe," OR folks who stand on principle

BTW, I'll bet your personal vehicle must be the color gray.

Ummm, the "American Melting Pot" is not a new idea. The idea that as everybody comes into the country they add their own experiences and cultural identity to our common culture is the relative strength of our culture.

What the liberals have been pushing for several decades now is the "American Stew" idea, where everybody comes in and keeps their own culture and identity seperate from the common culture.

Sorry if you find the idea of a common culture built from the various cultures of our people so offensive. Think about that next time you have lasagna, or a burrito, or a bratwurst, or sesame chicken, or a gyro, or... Well, you get my point I hope. We have a common culture that has a lot of variation within it. Liberals wish for us to have a lot of independant cultures. The term "Balkanization" comes to mind.

But that's ok, anyone who disagrees with you earns your disdain. Whether they are friends with Ted Kennedy or point out a foolish statement of yours on the internet. Have fun!
