Political Quotes

On the recordJuly 15, 2019
With respect to the remarks made this weekend about the squad ``going back to where they came from,'' it reminded me of some lyrics by Neil Diamond. Far, We've been traveling far, Without a home, But not without a star. Free, Only want to be free, We huddle close, Hang on to a dream. On the boats and on the planes, They're coming to America. Never looking back again, They're coming to America. And it ends with: They're coming to America. They're coming to America. They're coming to America. They're coming to America. Today, today, today, today, today. My country `tis of thee, Today, Sweet land of liberty, Today, Of thee I sing, Today, Of thee I sing, Today. That is the America that we know, and we are all here contributing to what makes America America, and I thank the body for listening. ____________________
