Learning English

There is nothing quite so discordant as Bush insisting that all immigrants need to learn to speak English. One only wishes he had.

And why is is that multiculturalism is bad only when it's Hispanic? I haven't seen the Republicans having conniptions over St. Patrick's Day parades or the Sons of Italy celebrating Columbus Day.

And didn't Tom Delay have his farewell supper at DC's most chi-chi French restaurant? (His staff explained that is was an American restaurant that serves French food!)



There's an old joke:

What do you call a person who speaks two languages?
Bilingual.
What do you call a person who speaks three languages?
Trilingual.
What do you call a person who speaks many langauges?
Multilingual.
What do you call a person who speaks one language?
An American.
