Good for Ron, bilingual knowledge is good, but english immersion is the superior way to get ahead in this country.
Bilingual education is a scam to hire minority PC teachers without much background and give them pay boosts above regular english speaking teachers. As a former teacher, I have studied spanish to discuss student performance with the spanish speaking parents, but in the classroom, english is supreme.

Liberals still demand bilingual education. This vote just proves the liberals' contention that designated nonwhites are too stupid to know what's good for them. Will the ACLU now sue to force a return to bilingual education for those poor stupid "latinos?"

Liberals demand bilingual "education" to guarantee a permanent underclass of destroyed lives. This will provide a good supply of their servants, toilet cleaners, gardeners at their homes, as well as democrat voters on the liberal plantation.
Viva Estrada! Confirm NOW!

You should have seen the sh** in Massachusetts when 70% of the voters rejected bilingual Ed. My sister, a good but deluded teacher, nearly restarted her ovulaition cycle, her hubby is Commisar of the NEA local in Peabody.
