You voted for this guy! <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Vkk3mhk3N0I&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Vkk3mhk3N0I&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
what if I just got totally fed up with America and decided that I wanted to move to Switzerland? would it be fair for me to complain to Swiss goverment to start teaching bi-lingual classes to my children? Even if I knew that most school classes in Switzerland are not in english? and more importantly, english is not the prominent language of the country? just saying, I'm all for immigrants who flee their crappy countries in search of a better life and more freedoms, but don't come here expecting everything to change and be catered to you, and for the most part......thats what I see. everything else, I agree with you.
To complain to them to start doing it? No that wouldn't be right. But to advocate that they do it, because it will give children a better education then yes that would be great. bi-lingual education should be done for all students regardless of their home language because it would improve education, cognitive skills etc. As far as children of immigrants, you don't have to worry. They almost always learn English.
Gore and Kerry both had leads too... but really... how over 40% of Americans today can support a guy/and a party that is supported by the same failed policies as the president of the USA... is beyond me... it shouldnt even be close...right now.. I always thought most Americans were ignorant... but then...most people in the world... would look at Americans as Stupid... so stupid is as stupid does...
I apologize to you Cometswin, you do seem like a very good person, and probably a lil pissed off at the Bush administration, and I can't blame you, I feel totally abondoned as a person who leans closer to conservative than to the left, but I lean because of my personal beliefs and yes.......my dreaded religious values. I just get a lil bent when the same regurgitated statments like these are blurrted out...... I agree with everything else you stated, especially as the parent of 3 bilingual children, and my youngest daughter will be also, for the reason FBlade mentioned. I just think it's THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS, not the gaurantee of happiness, gotta put in a lil work ourselves to.
what you mean the same bigots and rednecks... who would call u a SP?CK or tell you to go back to Mexico... because your not a American... since your of color... look at your electoral map... the country is still fighting the civil war.. if it was up to the extremist in your party... you would be picking cotton...and drinking out of the colored fountain... but then thanks for the vote... now make a run for the border...
Thats a rich argument... since most countries I have gone to...I find that the American Expats(usually men)...tend to stick together... not socialize with the locals unless they are females... and make no effort to learn the language(s) ever think... that...in teaching a bi-lingual classes... the kids will learn quicker so they can make that adjustment... into society... be proud of your heritage... Republican Party.... = those who have money and want to keep it... those who just wannabe....
If you use the bible or anything that Jesus allegedly said as your moral compass, you are starting out with flawed reasoning to begin with. It's just a book fellas, and one with some serious editing issues....
FOR THOSE WHO VOTED FOR BUS AND NOW MCCAIN Get a %^&(ing LIFE. I PUT UP WITH YOUR STUPIDITY FOR 8 YEARS, NOW YOU CAN PUT UP WITH MINE! You will still have your drug addict Rush to get you through it...........
Well, I voted for the bus when it said "straight talk express." I voted against renaming it "Stop Obama!11!!!" I would vote for it again if it adopted one of my new slogan suggestions. I am a flip-flopper when it comes to the McCain bus.
How does it feel to be lied to and watch those names come across the screen everyday on TV? I won't blame you only your leader and your leader just happens to be the leader of McCain for the last 8 years without the disagreement for the troops sake. Considering he is running some on his military legacy what a slap in the face to those who came after him....... but does he care? Not as long as he wins does he? ONCE AGAIN what about the ports?
I thought this was going be a thread about those West Virginia electronic voting booths that didn't let the voter pick Obama...
yeah we are so dumb you come to our forum eh? how about STFU and try not to lose your GF to those "losers" who won't party with you.
