appropriately named town. Cicero
For this day’s work, lords, you have encouraged treason and opened the prison doors to free the traitors. A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly against the city. But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears no traitor; he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared. The traitor is the carrier of the plague. You have unbarred the gates of Rome to him.”

except in this case they dont speak in familiar accents.

Don’t they?

Those who speak for multi-culturalism that I hear speak in unbroken English. Their words are easy to understand.

They tell me that my culture and heritage are at the very best no better than those of the people that come to my country illegally and at worst are inferior.

Their words tell me that if I oppose open borders that I am filled with hate; that I am xenophobic. They tell me that although the people that come here with out papers do not understand our system of government and do not pay taxes they should be able to vote in our elections.

Their words are very clear to me it is their logic that is foreign to me.

Your words also describe Obama.
