Allow me to turn your attention to a gift from your American people: those who elected you and those to whom you remain accountable. We call it the Constitution of the United States of America. In part, it reads, "insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves," so I ask you:
Which burdens you most, When the rain turns to flood? The mud of the Med, Or our Forefathers' blood?
While these refugees stream Toward our French-fashioned Girl, Where a poet's bronze stanza Adorns a stairwell,
I hear you implore us "Yea - Take them all in, For to turn them aside: Humanitarian sin!"
So let me remind you: Our tax is your pay, There's a gate at our border, And you stand in the way!
Our Constitution's each word Writ to keep us secure. Will you stand in betrayal, Or keep your oath - pure?
For as long as we pay you To make U.S. law, No matter the pull Of political awe, NEVER place such words scrawled On a cyprium plaque Above my Constitution, Or we'll take your job back!
@DracoTalpus 19Nov15 For Kevin and Ohio Rep. (D) Congressman Tim Ryan, who uses a French statue to claim American liberty is a #SyrianRefugee's right - while France keeps her borders locked-down! :/
