We need a question on the ballot in 2012 requiring
English only in Spanish class.

:spitlaugh

Between the gays being more dangerous than terrorists, and learning Spanish in Spanish class.....this state is going to Hades in a hand basket.

Every time you say the pledge in Spanish, 3,000 anchor babies are born.

Check out the Comments section. This one is my favorite.

"America is English not Spanish!" Are you kidding?
If English was good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for me!"

Ummm, excuse me if I am wrong, but isnt the Pledge of Allegiance a good thing regardless of what language it is said in?

Last I checked, the USA has no official language. No matter what language you say it in, English, French, German, Souix, Cherokee, Spanish, Dutch, Russian,... or Arabic (ewwwww, oh noes!) you are still pledging your allegiance to the United States of America...

I don't see anywhere in the story that Fox has an opinion on it either way, it looks like they are just reporting a story.

On the other hand, I can't see anything wrong with reciting the PoA in any language, as long as someone is pledging allegiance to the flag and the United States of America they are ultimately on my side and I'll stand with them.

Can you imagine how much crap this poor kid is going to take over this being all over the news?

On a side note, my mom likes to remind me how I refused to say the Reagan-esque "Drug Free Pledge" in front of my principal in grade school. To the point where they called her down to school because I was the only one that wouldn't do it.

It wasn't a political statement, I was just a little sh*thead.:igetit:
