My husband’s native language is Mandarin Chinese, yet he speaks better English than many American blacks who claim it as their native tongue. How embarrassing for them.

The Miss Ebonics pageant can only get 49 contestants. Nobody wants to wear a sash that says, "Idaho".

Years ago I heard of a movement by deaf people to stick only with sign language. Even to the extent of not teaching their hearing children English. The interest in puffing up self esteem (pride) trumps common sense once again.
