@WajahatAli That’s what my friend, the granddaughter of a Jewish woman who was chased through the streets of Vienna by Nazis in 1938 until she ducked into the American embassy, asked him: “Aren’t YOU an immigrant?” And he said, “That’s different. I’m from the same culture.” — PolitiTweet.org

@WajahatAli This is why, when Andrew Sullivan asked me what post-1965 immigrants had done for America, the first thing out of my mouth was, “For starters, better food.” (Though, to be fair, Soviet Jews haven’t really added much.) — PolitiTweet.org

@PaulaChertok @WajahatAli He meant British culture was the same as American culture, so it wasn’t hard for America to absorb him. Post-1965, in his claim, was a problem bc all these immigrants were from cultures that were too different from America’s. — PolitiTweet.org
