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-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" quote:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. quote:
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. Funny thing, pretty much all of our founding fathers were considered seditionists, supporters of terrorism and guilty of crimes against the state by England. It might also interest you to know that a good percentage of the Irish that immigrated to the US in the 19th and early 20th centuries did so because they had a death sentence in Ireland, because they were fighting for Irish independence and killing lobster backs, a some of my own ancestors are among that distinguished number. And of course all Irish are nothing more than thugs, drunks, criminals and murderers, cant help it its in their breeding (at least that was the argument against allowing them in to the country in the 1800's. Some of those men fought with distinction on both sides at places like Bull Run, Gettysburg, Fredricksburg, the Wilderness and later at a place called Little Big Horn. The fact that Muslims served in the US military with distinction fighting in both Gulf Wars and Afghanistan, against Islamic extremism seems to make no difference to many conservative Americans. You know, kind of like the prejeduces against African Americans serving in combat rolls in WW2. I suggest you people do some research on the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, comprised of nearly all Japanese Americans who fought with honor and distinction in WW2, when 90% of White Americans was proclaiming the only good Jap is a dead Jap. "The Japanese want to invade the US and kill all of us. The Japanese here will rise to support them." You know what, every one of you shit for brains prejudiced jack asses are the very worst of what this country raises our children to be. Not only that, but those of you who profess to be Christian are denying the basic tenet of your faith. Not a damn one of you are happy unless you can find someone to hate.
