don't believe so ... you missed my point to begin with. We are still an English-speaking nation. Bilingual education in the schools has been nothing short of an abject disaster. If the market wants to support that on radio or TV, I could care less. Let the free market determine that. But as an American, I am offended by a bunch of people standing in a grocery store or a Wal-Mart jabbering away in Spanish ... you are in America, speak English. This refusal to assimilate is building resentment on the part of more Americans than you realize.

Um, I didn't miss your point.

(duh)

In fact, I nailed your point and you for what it is and what you are, as evidenced by this little screed. You lie when you now proclaim you don't care if the market would support Spanish language radio programming, and your next comments just say it all.

Just quit saying people don't get your point when they do.

YEah, being bilingual is great -- all the kids should learn more than one language. But teaching the immigrant kids in spanish rather than teaching them to speak english is abhorrent and one of the biggest problems in America today. And only liberal doublethink can justify it because it makes no sense.
