They have been speaking Spanish and living here long before your ancestors (or mine for that matter) showed up on this side of the pond. Why do you think you have the right to tell them how to speak?

Attacking people's language as Brock did (not suggesting that one might learn English too) is extremely insulting. Instead of just attacking Hispanics, why not try to convert them to vote for your ideas? Politics is personal. I know many Hispanics (and quite a few Asians since the Cox report) that hate the Democrats's policies but they hate the Republicans's personalities. I get comments like: "I fought at Bataan; this isn't good enough for the Republicans." And similar comments from other groups.

I doubt that very many of them were here (NM, that is) speaking Spanish before my ancestors got here...we've been here a very long time. I'm sorry if your Hispanic and Asian friends are insulted by conservative insenitivity, but nobody living in this country should have to have it suggested to them that they learn English. It's an insult to me that they haven't taken it upon themselves to do so without being told. Instead they demand bi-ligual education and Spanish speaking bank tellers and on and on. English is the laguage of this country and everyone here should speak it. If I could I'd ban all bi-lingual education and all public spending on any bi-lingual literature, signage or usage what so ever.
