That situation has recently changed, with the rise of misguided souls

it would take to require English language skills of our citizens.
Your moral relativism with regard to this issue provides the perfect
explanation for the growing movement to have English declared the
"official language" in so many U.S. states today.


Well stated Jay. It is exactly this new 'relativism'... this new
striving to be politically CORRECT to the extreme that that is slowly
but inexorably taking apart the integrity of this country fiber by
fiber. This mis-guided hell bent attempt to get the rest of the world to
like us is really netting less and less respect.

But who cares, its more important to be 'stroked' by the media than
actually stand for anything.
