One Nation, One Language

I have created this blog to give give me a chance to express my opinion where more people will read it and maybe have more influence on their thinking. I understand that I am going to have a link to Jerry Hinkle's blog, the Holabird Advocate. That is great news because I will get more coverage in combination with the Holabird Advocate. Jerry has a great sense of humor. His blogs are always interesting reading.
Now for the subject of this message. I have for years been pushing our state and national legislators to make English our official language. Anyone that wants to become an American citizen should be required to learn the fundamentals of the English language. Executive order E O 13166 signed into law by president Clinton requires every government agency and organization receiving government funds to provide services and programs in foreign languages. That is costing us billions of dollars a year and should be rescinded. President Bush has the power to do it, saving us billions of dollars and making us one nation with one language. That would go a long way toward eliminating the discord among different ethnic groups and make the U .S. A. a unified country. At the rate we are being invaded by different ethnic cultures. If we are not careful we will have the same situation we have in Iraq right now where different religious sects are killing each other off by the hundreds.
