We speak American English, as opposed to British English or Canadian English. The Mexicans that don't bother to learn English should be ignored. It is the greediness of the U.S. corporations that want to get even that illegally earned Mexican dollar that are forcing Spanish on us Americans. Write and complain their advertising sponsors and their CEOs. Write to the Texas Education Association to complain about everything being written in Spanish, which doubles the expense of printed communication in schools. TEA should also be forced to STOP providing an education (as in English as a Second Language [ESL] to illegals. This is absurd and crazy. Write your state senators/congressmen, legislators, etc. Do something other than gripe online!

Bi-lingual is one thing, that means the Spanish speaker can speak English. I believe what this person posted was in regards to people who can't speak English day to day. Now some schools in CA are suing because the schools have not properly spent enough money to teach our immigrants legal or nonlegal, English as a second language! Or not enough scholarships. What about children that CAN speak English, they don't get earmarked funds for things like the nonspeaking English.

2 up - I think it's great for people to have a second language, I wish my parents had taught me Russian. But you miss the point, this is America, English is our language and it should be official. We should not have to press 1 for English and if you don't speak English but live here and want to be a citizen you should learn it. Let other languages press one for whatever if companies or our government wish to provide that privelege (it is not a right).

The best part of this debate is that 87% of all Americans believe that we should have English as our official language; that illegal aliens should be deported; that they should not be given SS or free schooling and many other things associated with this problem. Nevertheless, the democrats including Obama, Pelosi, Frank and Reed think we owe them and so they are planning laws that will give all these illegals all of the above plus amnesty for coming here illegally. Its called Oligarchy when a few rule the many and we are there. We have no democracy anymore.

The way I look at it. When you travel to a different part of the world you are expected to learn or speak there language. Why should we be any different? We should not be forced to learn it or to press 1 for English. Either learn the native language or go the f*** back where you came from.

As a matter of fact, I have traveled -- extensively -- in Mexico. I never expected them to speak English to me, though some of them did. I never trashed their property, expected them to pay my way as far as medical care, food or housing. I spoke as much Spanish as I knew, which often brought smiles to their faces, but they managed to understand. So, no, I don't expect them to treat me or my country like a landfill, nor do I feel we should pay their way while they're in the U.S.A.

A sad day in the U.S.A. ignorance is not bliss anymore. Learning spanish is not being forced it is offered. Spanish speakers are not trashing your property and not having you pay their way you ignorant pieces of waste. Millions of illegals help make this country great not bad it is the government that makes this country bad. The United States profits from every illegal family why because even when people are paid in cash they spend, paying for many different things and at tax time they do not get a refund that is from 1 to 5000 dollars that the government keeps per family multiply that times the millions. Saying illegals are bad is as stupid as saying that big companies do not profit from child labor, sweat shops and outsourcing. What you should focus on is these assholes that RIP millions of dollars from our 401k's and cause our people to be out of jobs why is no one pissed anymore about Enron or the economy we need illegals to keep prices down but we don't need the government protecting CEO's that embezzle millions that legally can't be touched because of state laws and put 10's of thousands of people out of jobs.

To the above poster: You are the ignorant one, mi amigo/a. If you only had the foggiest idea how much these wetbacks are costing us, you'd keep your foolish mouth shut. Yes, it's true that Big Business and the rich rape the middle class (and the poor), but that's off the subject. Try to stay on the same page, moron.

#3^ You really have no idea of what illegal aliens do to this country's economy do you? Research California's Billions in deficits and why. Their cheap labor doesn't pay for the cost of their education, health care, welfare, criminal activity, incarceration, the taxes they don't pay, the cost of bilingual signs, telephone services, and on and on. The estimated cost of the 20 million illegals to this country every year is upwards of 400 BILLION dollars. Do you really think their cheap labor contributes even a dime to their cost? Not to mention how much of what they make that they send back "home". You should shut up 'cuz you don't have a clue except for your emotional desire to help, which is lauditory if we could afford it. When I can't afford things, I don't invite peole to come and live at my house on me. Generally, I tighten my belt and work harder to make things better. Too bad our government doesn't. Oh, I forgot, they get their money from us and we're a bottomless money pit. Over 80% of all Americans think illegals should be deported but Pelosi thinks we should take care of them, so I guess what we think doesn't count since She and O'dingdong are running the country: not us anymore.

Illegal Mexicans are the scourge of the U.S. Do not hire them, do not have anything to do with them. Call ICE if you suspect one is your neighbor. We need to band together as Americans to get rid of this tax-dollar-sucking pestilence.

so, i guess all the haters here are native americans then, right? not to mention the level of idiocy and illiteracy i see here. 12 years of english wasn't enough for you, but you seem to think others can just "pick it right up" for your convenience, eh? nice. these are the kind of people who go to other countries and Yell at everyone, cuz they refuse to learn another language, but Yet . . .. personally, i think all the mexicans should go home, so we can listen to you all b**** about paying $5 for an apple. or maybe we could just get over ourselves. hum...

Five dollar apple? Let's see... after you calculate how much we're spending on printing everything in Spanish, food stamps, free medical care, teachers for ESL, the cost for housing and caring for illegals in prison, dealing with the rats, snakes and other vermin they attract because they won't pick up the trash or mow the weeds down in their yards, etc., that $5 apple seems CHEAP!

Some of you are so full of shit. People wouldn't be so riled up about this "spanish speaking" shit if the US wasn't basically catering to the illegal immigrants who happen to mostly be spanish-speaking. Me, personally, I wouldn't care so much about the extra language attached to everything thing if they also added the languages from the other top 4 countries that have LEGAL citizens here. Those other countries are China, the Philippines, India, and Cuba. We have way too many immigrants to just focus on one group.

To everyone talking about pushing 1 for English, shut the f*** up. You don't have to. All the lines I've ever called that had you push buttons for languages say specifically, "Please press 1 for English or stay on the line," so you're full of shit. You're just latching onto a isolationist mantra you heard on some talk show. Blow it out your ass, Spanish isn't some kind of disease. I say if you don't want to speak Spanish or even allow someone else to, then you have to stop eating any foods with Spanish or hispanic origins, don't buy any products made in Mexico or any other Spanish-speaking nation, and never buy any fruits or vegetables or meat or anything else handled by immigrant workers. Let's see how far you get in this country without them.
But you won't. None of you have the true dedication to stand for your supposed cause. You're full of shit and everyone knows it. You just want to b**** about someone else so you don't have to look in the mirror at how worthless your own life is. It's pathetic how many whining cunts fill up the internet with this bile. You type this crap up like you're some kind of armchair badass but you won't get off that same ass to do anything about it. If you have a belief, show some conviction and DO something. Writing a blurb on a website is pointless.

Last time I checked the U.S. did not have an official language put to law. It is just a coincidence that the majority of us speak english or some form of it.

Kinda sad really,,, The USA is one of the only countries that expect everyone to speak one language. Go to many countries and just to be a decent paid waiter you need to speak at least two different languages; preferably the languages that boarder that country. Gee, wouldn't that be spanish if we weren't to damn arrogant to follow others examples?

I'm a Mexican-American, and my family came here legally after WWII. All my family learned english and became citizens as soon as they were eligible. Two of my uncles went into the army during the Korean so they could become citizens faster. And I oppose the illegal aliens (From asia, Poland and Russia too, not just Mexico!) as much as anybody. Having said that, Americans need to get over their paranoia about other cultures and languages. When I was stationed in europe in the service, I found that many europeans know two or three languages. While all immigrants should learn english as soon as possible, it won't kill anybody to learn Spanish. (After all, there are three hundred million people south of the border with whom we can do business!)
