.Worst of all, the guidance endorses the notion that America ought to be a multilingual nation, and removes important incentives for all Americans to learn English. In short, as dubious as Executive Order 13166 and its policy guidance are as a matter of law, they are much worse as a matter of policy.

America is in big trouble. This thread appears to get little attention, yet the thread labeled "ALABAMA FOOTBALL PROGRAM SLAMMED" has well over 100 post. It's going to need to get real ugly before our nation finally wakes from its long slumber.

We are a nation where the males know every statistic in MLB, the NBA, and the NFL. The women know all about every soap opera star or who won the Academy Awards. Our young folks can tell you all about MTV or who the latest hot new Rap star is. But half of them don't know who their Congresscritters are. I don't mean to lump everyone into this catagory but for the most part, politics are way down the ladder with most people. They just don't care. Can you spell "apathy".

English should be the only language of this country. German is the language in Germany. French is the language of France. In Russia when you make a phone call I bet you don't hear - Press 1 to continue in Russian, Press 2 for Spanish!!
