My father and my mother’s family immigrated to this country through Ellis Island. They learned English and assimilated into the American fabric, yet kept their nationalities culture alive.

So did other Europeans and Easter Europeans as well as others.

What is the problem of promoting what George Washington suggested as an requirement of citizenship?

We don’t need special treatment for Spanish speakers when others of many, manylanguages didn’t receive it. They learned English.

Get with the program, we don’t want our tax dollars spent on your laziness and unwillingness to assimilate into America; learn one language, Period!

As Adam Smith said, referring to Economics, “There are no free lunches.” This can also apply to making excuses to obtain shortcuts to what America has to offer. It’s not just about hard work, it’s about total community. American citizens pay extra for non-English speakers and shouldn’t have to put up with multi-language ATM’s, phone menus, and directions to accomodate people who don’t take time to learn the common language.

Don’t change us, you change and adapt. It’s part of the price of “No free lunch.”

It just saddens me that in 2007 He feels this way. We are one nation under GOD. I just find is so funny that NOW, English is the mandated language. Does any one not remember Ellis Island. NOW that the Italians, greeks,russians,chinese are all americans and can have their families obtain citizenship more easy ANY other nationality is a burden. Although these nationalities have helped to build america. IF there are issues in this world IT surely comes from the top office, NOT the GHETTO. There should not be a Ghetto. BUT thanks to the lack of government funding we have NO choice. There are Hard working, well speaking people who live in the Ghetto who just cant get ahead. because gas goes higher, bread cost more and the cost of living is higher. IGNORANCE GINGRICH IGNORANCE. Maybe you should take a class on Common sense.
