Called the property tax collector the other day and there were two greeting messages. The first in English (20 seconds long) the second in Spanish (30 seconds long) The message then gave directions to push a number for Spanish, or Korean or ? ad nausea. I have no problem with pushing a button for another language other than English but to have to listen in Spanish before I get the choice to push a button for language seperation?
Outside of being somewhat offended by having to listen to Spanish for another 30 seconds, how can a government office use another language (other than English) for a greeting?
I wrote a letter of complaint to the Tax Collector and want to follow up but can't get deffinitive law on this issue. Someone suggests that English was recently made official language. Is this true? Anyone have ideas on this?

C'mon Don't get mad now! I am wondering why it is so easy for people to base a opinion on this holocaust crap without ever even doing a lick of research on the subject that isn't jewish propoganda! Most people just assume what the media tells them is gold. Who runs the media people? the Jews. Why does germany still give Israel money all these decades later for the supposed holocaust? were the jews the only ones killed? I think not.

I think it would show Arab nations that the U.S. is culturally sensitive and it will improve American /Muslim relations.

It is many years since we invaded Afghanistan in chase of Al Queda. It was a successful operation and thanks to the Russians for not giving guided missiles to the Taliban in tit for tat for what we did when they tried to do he same. But we destroyed the Al Queda/Taliban camps, killed a good number of them, installed a reasonable democracy and things seemed to be working out. We paid with Ametican lives and $billions as usual.

But it now seems the Taliban are regrouping and fighting us face to face, not in remote areas but a few miles from Kabul the capital. Are we not killing more of our soldiers for nothing? We have achieved what we went in for. Perhaps it is time we were getting out and concentrating on supporting the Government with air strikes and money and not with foot soldiers. We should not be engaging in a war of attrition with Moslem fanatics, who are trying to go to paradise where they will be rewarded with 75 virgins. But I only have one vote. What do you think?

I am clueless as to why our nation (USA) has not made English our formal, official language. Why has this not been done. It seems like a no brainer. Does anyone know the history on this?
I'd love to be able to look into this as it seems to be a real foolish thing not to do! Why can't USA have English as an official language for commerce, law, signage, phone messages etc.?
I have no problem with folks using other languages in public or private. We are a free country afterall.

Can a low to middle income person run for president today or is the presidency only for the well-to-do person?

I overheard someone say this and my reasoning by why they shouldn't was this:
Children pretty much believe anything and look up to the parents. Also the parents have a lot of influence in the childrens life. The fact of the matter is that the children would not be voting, it would be the parents. They will tell the kids who to vote for, the kids are not old enough to know what the arguments are and are not old enough to decide who they want in office. So it's like the parents voted twice or six times depending on how many kids they have.
What do you think?

If so, have you considered voting Independent for the 2008 elections? Try the Constitution Party. These guys are very conservative.
