Senators,

Your vote against an amendment to the Immigration Bill 1348, to make English America 's official language is astounding. On D-Day no less when we honor those that sacrificed in order to secure the bedrock character and principles of America . I can only surmise your vote reflects a loyalty to illegal aliens.

I don't much care where you come from, what your religion is, whether you're black, white or some other color, male or female, democrat, republican or independent, but I do care when you're a United States Senator, representing citizens of America and vote against English as the official language of the United States

Your vote reflects betrayal, political surrender, violates your pledge of allegiance, dishonors historical principle, rejects patriotism, borders on traitorous action and, in my opinion, makes you unfit to serve as a United States Senator... impeachment, recall, or other appropriate action is warranted.


Worse, 4 of you voting against English as America 's official language are presidential candidates: Senator Biden, Senator Clinton, Senator Dodd, and Senator Obama.

Those 4 Senators vying to lead America but won't, or don't have the courage, to cast a vote in favor of English as America's official language when 91% of American citizens want English officially designated as our language.


This is the second time in the last several months this list of Senators have disgraced themselves as political hacks... unworthy as Senators and certainly unqualified to serve as President of the United States.

If America is as angry as I am, you will realize a back-lash so stunning it will literally rock you out of your panties... and preferably, totally out of the United States Senate.

The entire immigration bill is a farce... your action only confirms this really isn't about America ; it's about self-serving politics... despicable at best.

Wow.
What a sad state of affairs.

[cruisinbabe]

whoa~!

the majority of the senators are democrats and very likely politically correct and liberal. I'm surprised to see only ONE republican voting against it. Not sure about the independent senator...prolly leaning a little to the left LOL

English has and always will be the language of the world...ironic that the rest of the world learns English as their second language, and yet here the Senate had voted AGAINST English as the primary language.

and I'll always ask this: WHAT were they elected FOR???

oh yeah something else...did anyone see that ad where kids tell the people running for office to not make any promises or spew rhetoric just to get elected??

thats unreal !!

Sad and totally anti-American. 31 of 33 are Democrats. Why does that not shock me? There is no excuse for voting that way.

I really bristle when I hear "prejudice" when I say I want English as the official language. To me, it's prejudicial when I hear demands for Spanish driver's tests, for example - what about the other languages?

What about common sense? Suppose you pass a driver's test in a foreign language - the sign says "One way, do not enter" - how does that work out??

As to every single issue being partisan:
I sent the following Letter to the Editor to my local newspaper:

"Are you tired of democrats saying something is white and republicans saying it's black, when you feel the truth is that it is a shade of gray?
Were you sick of the republican abuses but disappointed now with how little the democrats have done? Wouldn't you like a third choice?
Come to Unity08 online – just Google Unity08.
The idea is to get a democrat and a republican candidate for president and vice president with good ideas to move the country forward and away from the stalemate of partisan politics.
Potential candidates are discussed. Issues are debated and ranked in importance. Candidates will be selected based on positions on issues, and be invited to become Unity candidates.
If you like Hillary or Giuliani or Romney, don't bother to come, because apparently you don't care about issues, since none of those have any reliable stance on issues and are as political as it gets.
If you are tired of the best government money can buy, join up.
Potential candidates for the Unity ticket are those who won't be nominated by the 2 parties:
Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich, Joe Biden, Chuck Hagel, Colin Powell, Mike Bloomberg, Bill Richardson, are a few of the names discussed as potential candidates.
Please come and let's take back our government.
Don Hagen. "

I feel it is worth a try.
