I use to watch Dobbs for business news, but I'll have to check him
out tonight a 6:00PM on CNN.
"....The nation's most prominent opponent of current immigration
policy began his day yesterday on the "Today" show on NBC, debating a
Hispanic defender of illegal immigrants. He moved on to "American
Morning" on CNN to denounce a bill passed by the Senate Judiciary
Committee on Monday as "an amnesty program."...."
More about Dobbs:
He quotes Teddy Roosevelt :
"In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes
here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us,
he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is
an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or
birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man's becoming
in very fact an American, and nothing but an American..
There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an
American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have
room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red
flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just
as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are
hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the
English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that
is a loyalty to the American people."

T.R. was *exactly* right. They are supposed to become Americans, not
