I think it’s the right thing to do. In Texas, where I live, I’m very sick and tired of everything having to be printed in both English and Spanish, at great expense to the taxpayers. FGS—our voting ballots are even printed in Spanish!

How dumb is that!

This bilingual deal was a failed experiment in Belgium, but it was such a gross failure Canada decided to adopt it.

I gather Texans are just enamored of all things Canadian ~ snow and stuff ~ so they've tried it.

It's stupid. We've known for thousands of years that linguistic minorities must still learn the language in general use as well.

I hate to break it to you, but they’ve been speaking Spanish in Texas a hell of a lot longer than English...
