I don't deny any American tradition, but won't just sit back and let the stooges on the left, once again to twist the words, politicizing it's meaning. Every-time immigration is in the news or upon our minds the left likes to quote this phrase to twist it's meaning. Tens of Thousands came to the United States via Ellis Island - but they came legally, they didn't sneak across the border like the cockroaches of today that the Democrats exploit for votes. They like to run their mouthes but won't work the President, they want to play 'the migrants' to keep their own version of a Trump card again for political means. Practice what you preach, and support politically.... Dale Rush said it best "The Statue of Liberty had absolutely nothing to do with immigration. So why do people think that it does? Well, there was a socialist poet. (Are poets anything other than socialists and communists?) Her name was Emma Lazarus, and her poem was called The New Colossus, and it included the lines, Give me your tired, give me your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That was not part of the creation of the Statue of Liberty. It was not delivered with the Statue of Liberty. It came later. The poem written by Emma Lazarus was written to help raise money for the statue's pedestal. We had to build the pedestal, which is also a room underneath the statue. A bronze tablet bearing the Emma Lazarus poem was only put inside the pedestal in 1903. And yet there's Lester Holt out there on NBC holding out the Statue of Liberty as a beacon to immigrants as so that's what it was intended to be, fighting against Trump's executive order of the weekend. They have nothing to do with immigration. Zilch." --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A43 2019/03/03 (Windows/64) * Origin: Capital Station BBS * telnet://csbbs.dyndns.org * (1:267/150)
