			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Amazing how things never change, eh? This quote is from a speech by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_Roosevelt">Theodore Roosevelt</a> made in 1915! Yet it still rings true today, 91 years later.<br />
<blockquote>
<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_Roosevelt"><img src="http://www.ianneubert.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/President_Theodore_Roosevelt.jpg" alt="President Theodore Roosevelt, 1904" style="padding-right: 4px; float: left; border: 0px;"/></a>There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all.</p>
<p>This is just as true of the man who puts â€œnativeâ€ before the hyphen as of the man who puts German or Irish or English or French before the hyphen. Americanism is a matter of the spirit and of the soul. Our allegiance must be purely to the United States. We must unsparingly condemn any man who holds any other allegiance.
</p>
<p>But if he is heartily and singly loyal to this Republic, then no matter where he was born, he is just as good an American as any one else.</p>
<p>The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans, or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality than with the other citizens of the American Republic.</p>
<p>The men who do not become Americans and nothing else are hyphenated Americans; and there ought to be no room for them in this country. The man who calls himself an American citizen and who yet shows by his actions that he is primarily the citizen of a foreign land, plays a thoroughly mischievous part in the life of our body politic. He has no place here; and the sooner he returns to the land to which he feels his real heart-allegiance, the better it will be for every good American.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_Roosevelt">Theodore Roosevelt</a></strong><br/>Addressing the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knights_of_Columbus">Knights of Columbus</a> in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_york_city">New York City</a><br/>October 12th, 1915</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5953508/">China grapples with legacy of its ‚Äòmissing girls‚Äô</a></p>
<p>Wow. I didn&#8217;t know this was going on. That just pisses me off. How can they be so inhuman, so stupid, so *grrrrr*. I&#8217;m not one of many words, but this just makes me so mad. Not only are they just aborting female babies, but killing newborns too, and for the last 24 years!! Born or unborn, they&#8217;re killing future children and limitless potential in the process.</p>
<p>I say this is wrong. I say this is infuriating&#8230;and I dont get like this often.</p>
<p>If you think this is somehow right, Flame on.</p>
<p>EDIT: I think this applies: &#8220;Abort, Retry, Fail.&#8221;</p>
