Have you noticed that the "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder" crowd is strangely silent these days? (Mexicans, March)

Do you think only "whites" speak English?

I work with people from all over the world. They all speak English.

There's a lawn guy living down the street from me. He's lived there for more than 20 years. Doesn't speak any English. Why the hell should I learn to speak his language when he's made no effort to learn mine?

And? Does that make your statement less ignorant and racist?

Anytime a person buys full cloth into divisive party politics, or buy into an ideology they know nothing about, they probably have some sort of glitch going on.

Not ignorant or racist at all. It’s just a fact. That’s what the census projects.

We have a lot NATIVE speakers in Cajun land, and visitors from Canada.


Turns out, there is a TREATY.
Mexican–American War.

The 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo specified the major consequence of the war: the forced Mexican Cession of the territories of Alta California and Santa Fe de Nuevo México to the United States in exchange for $15 million. In addition, the United States assumed $3.25 million of debt owed by the Mexican government to U.S. citizens. Mexico recognized the loss of Texas and thereafter cited the Rio Grande as its national border with the United States.
One of the consequences of the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, was special treatment for Mexican citizens who were to be granted American citizenship, in ceded territory. They were not to be discriminated against, for only speaking Spanish, etc, etc.

America IS bi-lingual, since 1848.


We did get California...should we give it back?

I'm still here...sharing my opinions. I still think Liberalism is a mental disorder that eminates from a inert lack of self-reliance being stoked by the top 1% & the media.

I'm waiting for tax increases on middle class Dems & employers, $5/gal gas & higher home energy bills that poor Dems can least afford, higher unemployment due to $15 minimum wage, inflation when higher cor taxes are passed along tothe consumer, GDP to slow, & for the Libs to kill the economy, & pile on even more debt that the last group has.

It's all coming...oh, and a new war. Inner cities wil continue to crumble, Dem Mayors & City councils' cops will continue to kill blacks in the urban war zones. The exodus from Lib cities will escalate even more, & will get massive federal bailouts, which will crush the Dollar, & lead to rising interest rates.

By 2022, Dem voters will have had enough, and the Pubs will sweep back into control of the House, and Senate.

Liberal policies always fail, and harm those who voted them in, more than the rest. Shame, so many need to be reminded repeatedly.

Take closing down the Keystone XL pipeline...take a look at this diagram of America's existing piplelines in this link:

So, 1 more pipeline will really matter? C'mon man. We all know its really about the kickbacks Keystone won't cough up.

"They were not to be discriminated against, for only speaking Spanish"
Please post the part of the treaty that says this^
And, where it says that the 'right to speak Spanish without discrimination' pertains to all who later come here.



Fwiw, the "press 1 for English" doesn't really bother me. What does is when someone, no matter where they come from, comes here and expects/demands that we learn their language.
