but that would mean we should open our borders to anyone and everyone without restriction and when they were here give them all the rights of any US citizen
I'm so glad my relatives were lucky enough to be able to emigrate here. They were tired, poor, huddled masses yearning to breathe free, simply wretched refuse. But someone lifted a lamp beside a golden door and these homeless, tempest-tossed people were able to find a beacon.
I don't know what America you guys live in, but I like the one where we get to have dreams and ideals. I like the America that holds its head up as a bastion to the world, as a land where all people are free and hold truths to be self-evident.

Ha!
(Edited to clarify that I was chuckling over Geoff's post, not Tom's.)

I think Tom wears the Superman suit when he posts sometimes.

In the time it took me to write that blurb and post it, your conversation happened. Shows how damn slow I am.
Besides, I hope the US Constitution does cover McDonald's. I'm going to be abroad in a couple of weeks (going to Scotland, where it's likely to be "MacDonald's") but I like knowing I have my rights there.

Its funny the little differences. You know what they call a quarter pounder with cheese in Scotland? A Haggis Royale.

Geoff, if only ALL disagreements were able to be discussed as rationally and respectfully as the ones on this thread. Why... we'd be ONE AMERICA!
