  This is a VERY good point. I just happened to watch a very good documentry
about the Statue of Liberty and the imigrants. They showed the writing you
mentioned. It also outlined the struggles of the Irish Immigrants. I am of
German decent. Now I'm not ready to give up my "postion" on the Immigrants
trying to force their way into our Great Country. It is an illegal act and
should not go unpunished. However, I will admit I have had a "change of heart"
regarding Immigrants. It's clear to me it was a very different time in
America's history when the Statue of Liberty was built. However, nobody can
deny what is stands for.. That's all I have to say for today.
