"The bosom of America is open to receive not only the Opulent and respectable Stranger, but the oppressed and persecuted of all Nations and Religions; whom we shall welcome to a participation of all our rights and privileges, if by decency and propriety of conduct they appear to merit the enjoyment."
--George Washington (Address to the Members of the Volunteer Association of Ireland, 2 December 1783)

I agree. That is why we used to have a policy that if someone broke our moral codes or our laws, they were permanently escorted out of the USA...NEVER to return again. So what do we do now that our politicians are counting more on their votes than those of their constituents?
