Do they celebrate Lincoln's Birthday, or Cinco de Mayo?” -- Mark Krikorian, Center for Immigration Studies, 1997 "On the whole, there is an American national identity that immigrants ought to be encouraged to assimilate into" -- John J. Miller, author, 1998 “ Like others, I'm getting sick and… tired of having to ‘press 1 to proceed in English’ when I call some customer service number. Why… should I have to press anything to proceed in English in my own country?” -- Neal Boortz, radio talk show host, 2006
