"The New Colossus" that the commie poet Emma Lazarus had added to the Statue of Liberty almost 20 years after the dedication ceremony.
That infamous commie sonnet didn’t come with the statue, “Liberty Enlightening The World,” a gift from France unveiled in 1886, but was slapped on in the middle of the “Progressive Era” (in 1903). This was also the period that gave us other things as unAmerican as Lazarus’ poem, such as the income tax, and the notion that the Constitution could be considered a “living document” (Woodrow Wilson loved to bloviate about this).
It is very important that you realize that the Statue of Liberty and the Socialist/Communist poem by the Lazarus have NOTHING to do with one another. The poem is a parasite that was able to become attached to a host.
“There is room and brotherhood for all who will support our institutions and aid in our development; but that those who come to disturb our peace and dethrone our laws are aliens and enemies forever.” - Senator from New York, Chauncey Mitchel Depew, Unveiling of the Statue of Liberty, October 28 1886.
Newt Gingrich: Democrats have gone off the deep end

Well, the Democrats are certainly shooting themselves in the foot with this MS-13 stupidity but as far as I'm concerned, letting men into girls locker rooms and showers is the point where Democrats should have lost all credibility with Americans. Probably the WORST thing they've gotten themselves tangled up in is their desire to remove God from the schools, the public domain, and basically the world.
