“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
—Emma Lazarus, 1883
When I read this my first thought is of my grandparents NOT muslim jihadists. Sure wish BO and his ilk felt that way.
Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
—Emma Lazarus, 1883
******************************
Give me your Jihadis, your submissive thoughtless warriors,
Your huddled masses yearning to make IEDs in Chicago,
The wretched refuse of your World Caliphate.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed jihadists to me,
I lift my lamp beside this golden door!”
—Barak Obama, 2010
