You mean the group of Americans who mistakenly believes that the US is founded on an ethnicity, instead of a philosophy?

They need to study our history.

Anyone, of any origin, who comes here and pledges to support our ideals is welcome.

My family stepped off the boat onto the Rock, and if you think that makes me more of an American than some Guatamalan who swore the oath last week, you don't have a clue what this country is all about.

And my family STILL has the wooden desk on which YOUR family signed The Mayflower Compact.

And no, I don't think that you are more of an American than a Guatamalan who took the Oath last week

'They' are deeply distressed at THE AMNESTY quietly being cooked up by the White House and being touted by our Ambassador to Mexico.

That Guatamalan went through the LEGAL process and is entitled to ALL the Priveleges and Immunities the rest of our citizenry enjoy.
