Mark K.: What other popular phrases are nefarious left-wing multicultural attempts to co-opt, delegitimize, and destroy America? A few candidates: melting pot, golden door, “What, then, is the American, this new man?”, “a teeming nation of nations,” e pluribus unum (which isn’t even in English). Please tell us which should join “nation of immigrants” on the must-avoid list.

And holding naturalization ceremonies on July 4? What a rotten, horrible, stinking-to-heaven idea. Unless we weren’t holding naturalization ceremonies on July 4, in which case certain people probably would insist that it’s because we don’t care about the patriotic assimilation of immigrants.
