really? Antibiotics? HIV/Aids? Sterile Technique? Carcinogens? Vitamins? Cancers? Vaccines? 

I wonder how roosevelt would feel had we developed a polio vaccine 40 years sooner.

Id say a man speaking on "american values" nearly a hundred years ago who never  was exposed to the 1960's or many other civil rights movements, kosovo, sudan, iraq, WW2 really doesnt have a grasp of where our country is at or the world for that matter in 2010.


So you're basically saying because some things from 100 years ago are invalid, updated, or disproven then all things from 100 years ago must also be wrong?

Shit everybody, the earth is triangle!

 Im simply saying why take a quote form a hundred years ago and apply it to now when the landscape is different? To me its asinine.

What landscape is different? How has America changed so dramaticaly that americans do not want immigrants to asymilate? Its called the melting pot for a reason.  The qoute seems to be the perfect fit to be honest. Instead of calling it asinie maybe you could dispute what he has said. What is wrong in his qoute?
