How about an over/under on 350 posts?
This is such a no-brainer I can't believe this law isn't already on the books!
No need to read any further. No need to worry about Hillary in 08, we'll not be a country long before then.
I'll guess 248 posts..
This thread says the opposite....MSM covering the bases?
"White House spokesman Tony Snow said Friday that President Bush supports both measures."

He's probably still PO'ed at his SAT verbal score.
I really am stunned.
President Bush seems to be finding new ways to disappoint his base on a daily basis.
Borders, Language, Culture.
What part of that is hard to understand?
Can we all say "Speaker of the House Pelosi"?
Baffling. Absolutely Baffling, that he would say anything at all, especially with the mood in the country concerning this issue (illegal Mexicans) at this time.
Racist? Since when is a language spoken by many different people of all races, racist? Reid is a complete moron. President Bush is taking one step forward and two back with every issue that comes up.
I have said many times that there are two parties now. The evolutionary marxists (republicans), and the straight out commies (dimoRats). I don't give whit about who disagree's with me. If anyone can actually show me real progress onthe conservative front from our lifetime political congress critters, you may have a leg to stand on.
Why is it after 200+ years of being a Nation that we want to now have an official language? We survived Germans, Dutch, Swedish, Italian etc with English intact, so why cant we survive Spanish?
"The great American tradition of the melting pot."
Go to any big city, say, Chicago, and you got your China-town, German village, Lithiuania-ville, Polish-town, etc.
Stray to far from your own `comfort zone' and you'll get your butt kicked. The `melting-pot' theory was debunked in sociology studies years ago. More like a Swansons TV dinner.
I would bet over 350, unless other threads provide the vent for anger over this. Heck with it, I'll say over 350. I'm usually wrong about stuff like this, which is why I don't gamble.
What leadership? Oh, you mean POTUSofAmexico Fox?
The President needs to stop kissing the butts of illegals and Vicente Fox and start listening to the people who elected him!
Having two languages in a country is a recipe for division, or do we want to follow the example of Belgium? I bet if you opened a business which stated we will deal exclusively in English, customers would flock to it (no more Numero Dos para Espanol etc). What's the matter with English being the official language?
OTOH, if English is NOT the official langauge, why is Spanish the other option? Why not Vietnamese? Or Chinese? Or Gaelic or Italian?
No need to read any further. No need to worry about Hillary in 08, we'll not be a country long before then.>>>
So we havent been a country the last 200+ years without an official language?
Minimum - 500
Ouch. Good one!
I support the President MOST of time, but oppose his stance on immigration and ANYTHING to do with Mexico.
"it's part of his strategery to outfox Fox."
The network or the Mexican president? ;)
275-300, several removed posts, and maybe 2 suspensions.
You have GOT to be kidding me.
