This bill seeks to lay the groundwork for Obama serving more than 2 terms. A la Hugo Chavez.

THIS IS NOT A JOKE! IT'S A REAL BILL!

Congressman Jose “Serrano authored the English Plus Resolution , which calls on the government to encourage all Americans to learn and use multiple languages, in addition to English. He vehemently opposes “English only” proposals because he believes that implementing such a policy would be harmful to civil rights and America’s broader national interests. In 1996, the English Plus Resolution came close to House passage, and Serrano has proposed it again in the current Congress.” (From his website)

Seems the famous congressman from the Bronx has higher aspirations...ie el presidente. It’s no wonder, like his cousin Chavez, he seeks to remove term limits for el presidente.

Turd world socialistic mentality serving in our US Congress. Should we expect any less from them? The problem is, as I see it at this juncture, we are outnumbered. The only thing we have left is our US Constitution. When it fails to prevent the socialists from a total seizure of our govt, we have but one resolve.

In the 111th Congress, this bill, introduced by Congressweenie Jose Serrano, D-NY-16, was HJ Res 5. There are no cosponsors.

In the 110th Congress, this bill, introduced by Congressweenie Jose Serrano, D-NY-16, was HJ Res 8. There were no cosponsors. It died in subcommittee without consideration.

In the 109th Congress, this bill, introduced by Congressweenie Jose Serrano, D-NY-16, was HJ Res 9. There were no cosponsors. It died in subcommittee without consideration.

In the 108th Congress, this bill, introduced by Congressweenie Jose Serrano, D-NY-16, was HJ Res 11. There were actually three cosponsors. It died in subcommittee without consideration.

In the 107th Congress, this bill, introduced by Congressweenie Jose Serrano, D-NY-16, was HJ Res 4. There were no cosponsors. It died in subcommittee without consideration.

In the 106th Congress, this bill, introduced by Congressweenie Jose Serrano, D-NY-16, was HJ Res 17. There was one cosponsor. It died in subcommittee without consideration.

In the 105th Congress, this bill, introduced by Congressweenie Jose Serrano, D-NY-16, was HJ Res 19. There was again one cosponsor. It died in subcommittee without consideration.

In the 104th Congress, this bill, introduced by Congressweenie Bawney Fwank, D-MA-, was HJ Res 68. There was one cosponsor. It died in subcommittee without consideration.

And I could keep going back. This has probably been introduced every Congress since the 22d Amendment was passed.

A Bill to repeal this Amendment has been introduced in Congress for at least the last decade or two. It has never gotten anywhere.

obuma will barely finish his first term. By 2010 obuma will be as popular as a snake in the toilet. He’ll slither away, be sent off into the witness protection program and live in a bungalow with Joey “Two-Finger” Mbuku.

44% of the Supreme Court through the most twisted logic ever witnessed said the second amendment doesen’t mean what it says. Be very afraid.

Thanks, navyguy.

The sponsor of the bill, Jose Serrano, seems like a real piece of work from New York. Check out what he proposed in H.Con. Res 3. The bill is called "English Plus" .

Here's a sample:

...recognize the importance of multilingualism to vital American interests and individual rights, and oppose `English-only' measures and other restrictionist language measures.
