Yes, that saying the French wrote and put on their gift to us was stupid.

Agreed 100%. That silly sonnet, however, was not from the Frogs but from a native New Yorker, Emma Lazarus. The statue itself dates back to 1886 and "The New Collosus" was tacked on in 1903. This is what needs to be on that statue since we're underwater with immigrants, especially the third-world types.

Thanks, something was nagging me about that, but I didn’t take the time to look it up to see what I was forgetting.
