Sr. Presidente. ¿Tenemos su permiso de morir en español, o debemos morir en inglés? Erewhon 04/29/06
    Bush thinks national anthem should be sung in English
    BY MARK SILVA
    Chicago Tribune

    WASHINGTON - President Bush said Friday that "The Star Spangled Banner" should be sung in English and that the national anthem would not hold the same value when sung in Spanish.

    "I think the national anthem ought to be sung in English," Bush said, in response to a question at a Rose Garden news conference. "People who want to be a citizen of this country ought to learn English, and they ought to learn to sing the national anthem in English."

    ===

    Is it OK if Americans who speak Spanish die in Spanish in Iraq and Afghanistan, or would Senor Bush prefer they do that in English too?

      Received this a few days ago. But since the topic has come up.....


      "Try Doing This...



      a.. Try driving around as a Gringo in Mexico with no liability insurance. and have an accident...





      b.. Enter MEXICO illegally. Never mind immigration quotas, visas, international law, or any of that nonsense.





      c.. Once there, demand that the local government provide free medical care for you and your entire family.





      d.. Demand bilingual nurses and doctors.



      e.. Demand free bilingual local government forms, bulletins, etc.



      f.. Procreate abundantly. Deflect any criticism of this allegedly irresponsible reproductive behavior with, "It is a cultural United States thing. You would not understand, pal."



      g.. Keep your American identity strong. Fly Old Glory from your rooftop, or proudly display it in your front window or on your car bumper.



      h.. Speak only English at home and in public and insist that your children do likewise.



      i.. Insist that all products' labels, owner's manuals, instructions, etc., be written in English as well as Spanish.



      j.. Demand classes on American culture in the Mexican school system.



      k.. Demand a local Mexican drivers license. This will afford other legal rights and will go far to legitimize your unauthorized, illegal presence in Mexico.



      l.. Insist that local Mexican law enforcement teach English to all its officers.





      Good luck! Because it will never happen. It will not happen in Mexico or any other country in the world... except right here in the United States...

      Land of the naive!

      If you agree, pass it on. If you don't, go ahead and try the above in Mexico or Iran, or just about any other country in the world, for that matter.

      Hello gade:

      Like all arrogant American right wingers, you expect the world to adopt your way of doing business.

      I happen to like their way of doing business. It's corrupt, but it's honestly corrupt. Not like our hypocritical corruption.

      Take drugs for instance. If you get busted in Mexico, you just pay the cop and go free. That's "honest" corruption. Here in America, the cops bust you and take everything you've got. After all, here you have to feed a much longer line of corrupt individuals.

      And, then they add insult to injury by telling you that YOU were the one who behaved badly. Right......
