Just because there's a fly in the butter, doesn't mean it's a butterfly. A cat is hardly like a catfish, nor a dog like a dogwood, and ditto for a floxglove and fox. Then we can start on idioms: cat out of the bag, no dog in that hunt, flygirls, and foxy lady.... and some folks think that first and second generation immigrants should just cope with the language's oddities and still expect them to interact with government and business at the same level as others.
But being America means giving everyone equal access to the opportunities and benefits of democracy.
