Well stated. Should be required reading for our "sort of" allies, e.g., France, England, and all Middle Easterners.

Ideally, an American is someone who has completely assimilated into the US, and who feels closer to his fellow American countrymen than to any foreigner or foreign nation. An American is a black who feels closer to white Americans than to African nationals. An American is an Arab who feels closer to Jewish Americans than to Arab nationals. An American is a Jew who feels closer to Arab Americans than to Israeli nationals. An American is a Latino who feels closer to Anglo Americans than to Mexican nationals. An American is anyone in America, of any race or religion, who feels closer to other Americans than to nationals from Britain or Ireland or Germany or Russia or China.
That's the ideal. E. publium unim. Applied equally, welcoming all, preferring none, demanding the same loyalty and obligation to assimilate, and in return granting the same rights and privileges of an American.

Somebody should repost the piece about how we're crazier than the Islamists would ever think of being (after all, we made Police Academy 6, for example).

They are the embodiment of the human spirit of freedom. Everyone who holds to that spirit, everywhere, is an American. I would trade two Baldwins, a Tom Cruise and a Rosie O' for this guy.

I was about to say, "Somewhere, Steve Guttenberg weeps in silence..." but come to think of it, I don't think he was in "Police Academy 6," now was he??

Americans welcome the best, but they also welcome the least. The national symbol of America welcomes your tired and your poor, the wretched refuse of your teeming shores, the homeless, tempest tossed. No! We have had enough! Tell the tired and poor to stay in their own countries and make them great, just as we did here!
What was once a good thing, long ago, will eventually choke us off. It's my opinion that immigration, unchecked, unregulated, legal and illegal immigration, will eventually destroy this nation. To much of a good thing can kill you.
How many millions upon millions more does this dentist suggest we absorb?
Does this dentist realize that we continue to allow in approximately 8,000 Middle Eastern men a month on visas. Do any Americans realize this? This is an article that should open any Americans eyes.
8 Million Illegal Aliens Swarm U.S.

8 Million Illegal Aliens Swarm U.S. Phil Brennan, NewsMax.com Friday, Oct. 26, 2001
At a time when the U.S. faces an internal terrorist threat posed partly by illegal aliens, a shocking new report from the U.S. Census Bureau reveals that there are as many as 8 million illegal aliens - or more - in the U.S. Incredibly, the number of illegal aliens living in the U.S skyrocketed by about 400,000 to 500,000 a year in 10 years, jumping from the 3.5 million estimated to have been here in 1990 to 8 million last year.
Actually these figures has been updated, and estimates now range to as many as 15 million illegal aliens, now in the United States.!!!!!
End the immigration "free for all". It needs to be reformed, stopped, and limited immediately. A moratorium should be put into effect now.

Thank you for the link. I received this as an email and it just said it was from a dentist. I didn't want anyone to be under the impression that I wrote it myself, even though I agree with the American spirit and the greatness of this country. I can't believe how blessed we are to be born here. My heart is full of gratitude.

I received this as an email and it just said it was from a dentist. I got it myself about two weeks ago. I certainly didn't think that you were trying to pass it off as something it wasn't.
