Observations of Hanuka and Kwanza fall into the same cateogry as speaking Spanish -- the hallmark of people who are disrepectful of the United States and everything it has give them, which is everything.
The question is, why did we allow these people into our country if we knew they would be so ungrateful?

Why is observing a Jewish feast disrespectful of the United States?

It's not the immigrants complaining, its the guilt racked white liberals and their hate-america allies.

Why is wishing or celebrating Hanukkah disrespectful of the US?
Why is speaking a foreign language? I am there are many immigrants in this country who love the US. My great grandma never learned English but would die for the US if called to do so.
But kwanza THIS IS DISRESPECTFUL. It is a total made up anti-capitilist anti-American celebration. All one has to do is research those who started this fraud to know.

Observations of Hanuka and Kwanza fall into the same category as speaking Spanish -- the hallmark of people who are disrespectful of the United States and everything it has give them, which is everything.

When did celebrating a Jewish Holiday become disrespectful of America? Just as I would expect Jews to respect my celebration of Christmas, I respect their right to celebrate Hanukkah, Yom Kipur.

Kwanzaa is a made-up holiday like sweetest day, so I do feel free to make fun of it, but Hanukkah is a traditional Jewish holiday that has been observed for thousands of years. Religion should not be a dis-qualifier to being considered an American.

Second time I'm asking this question: Why is observing a Jewish feast disrespectful of the United States?

Hannukah is disrespectful of the United States?

BTW, as to why we allowed the ungrateful Jews in the country, let me refer you to George Washington. One of our founding neo-cons. Liberal too, as you'll note from the letter. And no, a response isn't necessary, I won't be able to reply unless it's in the next half hour, though someone else can.

To the Hebrew Congregation in Newport Rhode Island.

Gentleman.

While I receive, with much satisfaction, your Address replete with expressions of affection and esteem; I rejoice in the opportunity of assuring you, that I shall always retain a grateful remembrance of the cordial welcome I experienced in my visit to Newport, from all classes of Citizens.

The reflection on the days of difficulty and danger which are past is rendered the more sweet, from a consciousness that they are succeeded by days of uncommon prosperity and security. If we have wisdom to make the best use of the advantages with which we are now favored, we cannot fail, under the just administration of a good Government, to become a great and happy people.

The Citizens of the United States of America have a right to applaud themselves for having given to mankind examples of an enlarged and liberal policy: a policy worthy of imitation. All possess alike liberty of conscience and immunities of citizenship. It is now no more that toleration is spoken of, as if it was by the indulgence of one class of people, that another enjoyed the exercise of their inherent natural rights. For happily the Government of the United States, which gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens, in giving it on all occasions their effectual support.

It would be inconsistent with the frankness of my character not to avow that I am pleased with your favorable opinion of my Administration, and fervent wishes for my felicity. May the children of the Stock of Abraham, who dwell in this land, continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other Inhabitants; while every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and figtree, and there shall be none to make him afraid. May the father of all mercies scatter light and not darkness in our paths, and make us all in our several vocations useful here, and in his own due time and way everlastingly happy.

G. Washington

One more time, with feeling: how is a Jew, celebrating a Jewish feast, being disrespectful of America?
