The evidence that Republicans and Democrats work in concert should be clear from the dust-up over Rand Paul's comments. The Democrats naturally kicked into overdrive over Paul's comments but the Republicans too, despite the title of Paul as a Republican, also immediately attacked Paul as out of line.
Management Company Says Flag Displays Violate Policy. The company's policy stated they were following the H.R. 42: Freedom to Display the American Flag Act legislation but it seems that the intent of the law is just the opposite: to permit a person to fly the American flag on their property. The patriot's property is subsidized by the Federal government. The government is not allowing a person to fly the American flag on his property.
AlJazeera: China views Iran uranium exchange plan as “a very positive step in the right direction”.
Victor Gao, the director of the China National Association of International Studies, says China welcomes news of the Iran uranium exchange plan as “a very positive step in the right direction”.

'In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language.. And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.'
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
