Jim,

re: Most all come here for more money, better opportunities and freebies now. Since it's so easy there can be little appreciation for those who paid the ultimate price for the freedoms we now enjoy.

I disagree. Most of the folks that immigrate to this country buy into the whole picture. They understand and are willing to sacrifice with the rest of us, for the generations that have given their youth and their families for freedom. Most get and embrace that. I've seen them at citizenship ceremonies.

It's the very small minority that doesn't understand that freedom and sacrifice go hand in hand that should be censured.

John

RE:"So people come to the US to rape it, monetarily. Have you not missed this point in the past?

Did Einstein, Von Braun, Schwarzenegger, the Kennedys, George Washington, Soros, et al come to this country to rape it?"

Times have changed Ted. It's gotten worse. As far as those you listed, Soros would do about anything for a profit. Including shorting the dollar.


You're way to cynical for my blood. You should apply that cynicism towards Bush and his administration.
