Subject: Fw: LETTER TO THE EDITOR !! a good one
Whether or not this is an actual letter, still makes a very good point.
Orange County California Newspaper This is a very good letter to the
editor. This woman made some good points.
For some reason, people have difficulty structuring their arguments when
arguing against supporting the currently proposed immigration revisions.
This
lady made the argument pretty simple. NOT printed in the Orange County
Paper..................
Newspapers simply won't publish letters to the editor which they either
deem
politically incorrect (read below) or which do not agree with the
philosophy
they're pushing on the public. This woman wrote a great letter to the
editor
that should have been published; but, with your help it will get published
via cyberspace!
From: ' David LaBonte '
My wife, Rosemary , wrote a wonderful letter to the editor of the OC
Register which, of course, was not printed . So, I decided to 'print' it
myself by
sending it out on the Internet. Pass it along if you feel so inclined.
Written in response to a series of letters to the editor in the Orange
County
Register:
Dear Editor:
So many letter writers have based their arguments on how this land is made
up of immigrants. Ernie Lujan for one, suggests we should tear down the
Statue of Liberty because the people now in question aren't being treated
the same
as those who passed through Ellis Island and other ports of entry.
Maybe we should turn to our history books and point out to people like Mr.
Lujan why today's American is not willing to accept this new kind of
immigrant
any longer. Back in 1900 when there was a rush from all areas of Europe to
come to the United States, people had to get off a ship and stand in a
long
line in New York and be documented. Some would even get down on their
hands and
knees and kiss the ground. They made a pledge to uphold the laws and
support
their new country in good and bad times. They made learning English a
primary rule in their new American households and some even changed their
names to
blend in with their new home.
They had waved good bye to their birthplace to give their children a new
life and did everything in their power to help their children assimilate
into
one culture. Nothing was handed to them. No free lunches, no welfare, no
labor
laws to protect them. All they had were the skills and craftsmanship they
had
brought with them to trade for a future of prosperity.
Most of their children came of age when World War II broke out. My father
fought along side men whose parents had come straight over from Germany ,
Italy, France and Japan . None of these 1st generation Americans ever gave
any
thought about what country their parents had come from. They were
Americans
fighting Hitler, Mussolini and the Emperor of Japan . They were defending
the United States of America as one people.
When we liberated France , no one in those villages were looking for the
French-American or the German American or the Irish American. The people
of
France saw only Americans. And we carried one flag that represented one
country.
Not one of those immigrant sons would have thought about picking up
another
country's flag and waving it to represent who they were. It would have
been a
disgrace to their parents who had sacrificed so much to be here. These
immigrants truly knew what it meant to be an American. They stirred the
melting
pot into one red, white and blue bowl.
And here we are in 2008 with a new kind of immigrant who wants the same
rights and privileges Only they want to achieve it by playing with a
different
set of rules, one that includes the entitlement card and a guarantee of
being
faithful to their mother country. I'm sorry, that's not what being an
American is all about. I believe that the immigrants who landed on Ellis
Island in
the early 1900's deserve better than that for all the toil, hard work and
sacrifice in raising future generations to create a land that has become a
beacon for those legally searching for a better life I think they would be
appalled that they are being used as an example by those waving foreign
country
flags.
And for that suggestion about taking down the Statue of Liberty , it
happens
to mean a lot to the citizens who are voting on the immigration bill I
wouldn't start talking about dismantling the United States just yet.
(signed) Rosemary LaBonte
KEEP THIS LE TTER MOVING. FOR THE WRONG THINGS TO PREVAIL THE RIGHTFUL
MAJORITY NEEDS TO REMAIN COMPLACENT AND QUIET!!
LET THIS NEVER HAPPEN!!
I sincerely hope this letter gets read by millions of people all across
the
nation!! |

SEE ROME

What? On $25 a day?
One of the most respected fighting forces of the ancient world was the
Sacred Band of Thebes, 150 same-sex couples, incredible warriors. It
was said that they would fight all the more strongly to aovid being
embarrassed in the eyes of their lovers.
I don't particularly recommend it as a military motivating technique
today. Times change. But if you're suggesting that Rome fell because
of gays, or specifically because there were gays in their military -
pure unadulterated nonsense. |

The real number is damned close to 100% of people who are OPPOSED to the
bailout. For every 100 taxpayers opposed to the bailout, there is 1 that
actually is stupid enough to support it. So you and I are in the group of
people who are the 99% plus majority opinion on this matter. -Dave

Count me in that 99%! Have you noticed that we can't email our
representatives anymore? The site crashed because so many people were
emailing. I'm so sick of congress. In fact, I'm going to find out if
ones in my area are up for re-election and if they vote 'yes' on this
Friday, I'm voting them the heck out of congress.
Amen

I think I'll *actively* work for their opponents. I don't want any of
them back if they vote for this bail out. |
