#2 This is a nice gesture, but it is still attached to a pile of horsemanure.

#8 Non, non, sacre bleu'!? * "DEFAULT" > iff I were to guesstimate, I would say it infers ENGLISH will be, or should be, the language of any and all Public Sector documentations and transactions, to include current or archival computer-based docs or recordations. While local Govs or voting districts may vote/elect to have public docs in languages other than English, NOTHING will be held legally legit by the Local-State-Feds, solely or jointly, unless it has a backup English translation(s).

#10 Don't hold your breath, Congress must agree. Time to email our congress and tell them to support this when it gets to the house.

#11 No spine in Illinois, so I wrote to Tom Tancredo, who will stand up for right principles, I think.

#12 Yeah, this is good for a start. However, I watched CSPAN2 tonight and watched that miserable fuck Hagel try to do the old end around w/the temporary guest worker program he and Kennedy/McCain are behind - anything that fat shit bird Kennedy puts his meaty fingers on is already suspect in my book. OTOH, Sen Kyl (R-AZ) was good to go, wish he was my guy vice Levin/Stabbanow.
