HERAlI^riMES Yours & Ours To the l-dilor: Reading F"rank Michels column ("Give us your tired Jan. 5 Herald Times). 1 was taken aback at his last commeni. essentially a proillegal immigration position, cloaked in typical sentimental liberalism, lopped by limma l.a/arus's poem "A New Colossus." on a plaque at the base of the Statue of Liberty. The universal, inclusive aspirations in Lazarus s poem are not a part of the Declaration of Independence or other pronouncement of the Founding Fathers and had no bearing in reality. They are the fantasy and reaction of a young Zionist, in regards to the Russian pogroms following the assassination of Czar Alexander the second. The lines were added years after the dedication of the statue; predating the Ellis Island era of mass immigration: and was originally to symbolize not "the Mother of Immigrants," in Lazarus's phrase. but liberty enlightening the world — that is, "liberty under law." Illegal aliens break our immigration laws when they cross our borders illegally or stay illegally. In a microcosm that is similar to going onto an individual's property without consent and living there. Such a law breaker would face forced removal. Americans should ask: What is the cost of elected leaders lollygagging on this issue? The cost is crime, dollars and lives. In some counts, the invasion is close to a million annually. One of 12 crossing our borders illegally has a felony conviction, not to mention lives lost each year at the hands of illegal aliens, according to Congressman King on the Homeland Security Committee. The illegal alien problem is far worse (see \i'\i'w.vdare.com). national-origins quotas was in place to reflect the ethnic European heritage of existing American communities. Does that sound inclusive? These restrictive immigration policies did not end until the 1965 Immigration Act. Clearly, the United States from the beginning saw itself as a nation cuhurally and racially part of Western civilization. That was then; this is now. Today, Lazarus's poem fits more ftasily in the plethora of politically correct concoctions. No amount of pretending, that we were ever, historically, the all inclusive project for the worlds "wretched refuse"^— let alone today's Third World, non-European immigrant masses — will make it so.
