English Only - Hmmm Arnold I think you got something there!

http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory?id=3280441

I generally think little of the Governor, his being a Republican and all.

But on this issue all I can say is right on!

Our English speaking society cannot stand as one if the people in it choose to ignore the things that hold nations together.

Language. Historical events. Everyday interactions in business, schools, on the streets, without a commonality these things become lost in the seeming rush for DIVERSITY!

Diversity my foot! Division is what that really means.

Dammit I don't want to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. It is a Mexican holiday. Unless it is celebrated by people who have the ancestry but who speak the native language of the United States.

Nor do any of the other more recent immigrant folks deserve to keep forcing the American English speaking people to accommodate there immigrant languages that so many seem to cling to in defiance of the Nations native language.

STOP IT FOLKS.

HOORAY FOR ARNOLD BEING OPEN AND HONEST.

Turn off the damn bi or single language non-english stations, magazines, radio and TRY TO ASSIMILATE.

READ MY LIPS.

A - S - S - I - M - I - L - A - T - E!

NOT DIVERSIFY!

Become Americans who speak english. Not because the English founded a group of colonies 200 plus years back but because the good things that you get to enjoy will not be here much longer if you don't!

Bread and Circuses

REMEMBER: Rome did themselves in by neglect, indifference, and a crushing arrogance that they could rule the world by power both military and monetary! So I ask the question that I hope other worthies ask themselves. Why shouldn't we become a world Empire? Should we just sit back and enjoy bread & circuses via our Neo-Roman Nascar and Super Bowls? Our hedonistic, plasticized youth culture? Our odd sad acceptance of failure in this our once great Democracy?

Bread and Circuses! One More Time

Oh yea no difference between us and the Romans. But lookout for our modern Caesar, with his incredible drive for total domination of the once great United States, Bush and Company might just pass you up and leave you spinning in the grave.

Et Tu, Brute

Dictators have a way of ending life in fairly severe ways. Look at poor Julius, knifed by his pals in the Senate. Perhaps we live in more enlightened times but with the world in every increasing war, famine and upheaval, those old ways may come again to the most powerful as well as to the lowliest misguided, misbegotten bully in the streets of anywhere on Planet Earth.
