Hey...see the news today folks?  Seems Obama has stated that when Americans travel outside the U.S. that we are an embarrassment to him because we don't speak other languages.  I guess he thinks we only visit Mexico because he says we should all learn to speak Spanish. Caramba!  Senor Osama...er uh Obama es muy loco in la cabeza. Pobrecito.......I wonder how many black americans have the time and inclination to rush out and take Spanish classes?  Or us "whiteys"...or other working stiffs?  Unfortunately, that buzzard does not have to work for a living...the rest of us DO.  This is what happens when fools begin to believe their own press.

Hell, we will ALL need to learn Spanglish if the allowing of those dam illegal's to keep on over running America is not stopped. Have not heard much or ANYTHING encouraging from either on that "little" problem.

Starr, I actually heard NObama's plan for the illegals is to FINE them for being here illegally. Then put them in line for legalization with the others who have done it correctly.
First off, where is the FINE money coming from? Illegal working maybe? (another way for the Gov to get a cut)
Second, If that becomes the policy how many more additional illegals will be making that mad dash to our side? Probably all of them!!

Hey Pedro, the US is no longer sending us back. The stupid idiots are just going to charge us to become citizens.

Comes down to selling citizenship now.

RED-DOG1, I had heard smatterings along those lines, again two of my favorite texting exclamations, W-T-F and U-F-B!
At least 2 low riders and four burros for every house with 5 or more families living there, and Lord only knows how many vehicles up on blocks! They give "Trailer Trash" a bad name!

Somratni, one can only hope so, but like my boy says, "You can't fix stupid!"
Those Dumocrap Dimwits just don't get it, but we all sure will if he gets elected.

I wish Obama was running for the Presidency of OZ instead of America! His ideas would work wonderfully there!

Somratni;
That idea does not seem likely! It's like trying to tell your best friend that the person he is marrying is totally wrong for him! They just don't listen to reason. But soon, probably a year later they wake up! Then they come to you and ask-"Why didn't you say something"!

I think in "09 we will be hearing a lot of - "God help us!

After seeing what's really going on in Iraq, Obama will someday be called "Iraq Obama", if he wins that is!

Do we embarrass him or his wife? That is the real question.

Heck, THAT "AH" 0bama embarrasses ME with his stupidity, and snobby smugness.

That was NOT a wise decision to run for the Office of the President of the United States Of America = after being a junior senator with just 143 days of experience.

0bama is a laughing stock world wide. Only the Muslim terrorists and others who HATE AMERICA think 0bama would be a good choice.

Sure we have a boatload of black racists in this country who blindly plan to vote for him, but this is the same back culture that is losing job to illegals who work harder, or Asians who work smarter. I don't think they will ever learn. They just never improve.

It embarresses me when the BO man's wife says that she has never been proud of her country. Interesting language from a woman that has taken advantage of every give away program this old country has given her.

Most Americans that spend any time outside of the United States on travel, do tend to learn the local languages and customs. However as a collective culture, Americans don't learn nor speak foreign languages because we simply don't have to. In Europe because the countries are so close and crossing borders is much more frequent, it becomes essential for Europeans to learn and speak more than one language.

When in the US Air Force I was sent to Turkey for 15 months. Because I was sent to Ankara where there are not very many Americans, I found myself one day in downtown Ankara at their big Atakule Shopping Center, stranded without an American or Brit in sight. Needless to say, in the following weeks I learned to speak Turkish very quickly, to the extent that I proudly took trips on Turkish buses and throughout the country where I'd have to force myself to speak and understand it fluently. Cultural immersion is a great teacher.

Now to Barack Obama's obsession with foreign language. This is America. We speak English, though some Spanish is sometimes advantageous due to recent demographic shifts. Still, English is the predominant language of business, commerce and culture here. When people come here to visit, I expect them to stay in our hotels, spend their money on stupid souvenirs, eat in our restaurants and generally have a great time. There's a tourist industry that caters to this. But if foreigners come here to live and work, I expect them to learn and speak English.

I don't have the whole story of Obama being embarrassed about other Americans traveling o

What is up with this guy and his wife. She's ashamed and he is embarrassed about being American.

Instead of running for the president of The United Sates ,he should think about maybe running for the president of France instead.

And by the way,let me remind Obama, if it were not for us ,the french would be speakin german.

"Perdant"!!!

Oui, drerunner! And....Starrman...a tricked up fishing trip is enough to pidz anyone off. I'm from Florida and love to fish...mostly large and small mouthed bass and bream...yummmmmmmm! I don't see the delete for the repeat button on my screen...my iMac wouldn't turn on, so until it is repaired I purchased a little Mac Mini...seems they should have called it "The MiniMac." Anyway...Canada is to our north...why didn't Osama...er, uh, Obama suggest we learn French? Quebec is just to our north a bit. Why Spanish...which can be picked up quite rapidly by just about anybody? How about German? Perhaps we should rush right down and spend $200 - $1,000 for language lessons to please this idiot? Forget about making the mortgage payment or feeding your kids....Jerk!

Hello AveMaria22,

This is a fast changing world, it would be
good for all people to know a 2nd language, most young children are or will learn one. Its too bad that some of you try to use every tid-bit to try to down Mr. Obama, it won't work, most people are smarter then you, trying to use such tactics .

Hello, snitchonmurder...I was just sitting here thinking about the fact that one of the differences between black americans and white americans is that white americans seem to have more pride. We take such pride in ourselves that when a piece of spit comes along who treats people the way Osama..er, uh Obama treats us, we can spot him a mile away. Black americans just keep on following this dude who has no substance. Hmmmm. Just an observation. As Reverend Jackson intimated, black folks don't seem to have the pride and acuity to know when your sumbich politician is talking DOWN to you. Out of fairness, not all blacks have bitten BO's hook. I know of several, mostly black women, who are sharp as a tack...usually older women who have been the backbone of the family and who've busted their keesters taking care of their loved ones throughout the years. These women are not easily fooled by a black charlatan making empty promises and making ignorant comments about the people of this nation. The sumbich may have been born in the U.S. of an american mother, but it is apparent that he does NOT love this country. Tell me, snitch....why is it good for us to know a second language? Why not good for us to know ALL languages enough to communicate with all peoples of the world? Which one is the most important that we will use enough to keep sharp on? French? Spanish? German? Italian? Which one, snitch?

snitchonmurder-

It's so easy to make an idealistic statment, But it's much harder to back it up.

Most high schools in America don't aggressively teach foreign languages to our students. That's not the american person's fault. Usually students might get a little during the early years then it's dropped until the 8th or 9th grade where you get maybe 2 intense years of the basics. That's not enough ,especially when it's not spoken every day like your first language.

If obama is serious about a second language program for Americans , he should also mentioned that this is not part of our educational system -so don't blame the american citizen for it.The system does not provide that type of support.

In fact , any kid can learn 3 or 4 languages if he or she start @ the age of 3 - and continue intensively to 7 or 12. But our system isn't set up like that. So if he needs to make an argument, blame the system- not us!

Also, the reason it's that way it is in Europe, where people all know 2 -3 other languages, is because they are all in close proximity! They are always moving in out of each other's country's due to seeking work because employment may be scarce at times within their own. They can vacation more often then we can to the close countries. This actually gives them more opportunities to practice and grow into the other EUROPEAN languages. Barrack forgot to mention their Russian , mandarin and Japanese isn't any better than ours.....

In the U.S.A., we are way more spread out and it is ridiculous to think one will find French,German and dutch at every

In the U.S.A., we are way more spread out and it is ridiculous to think one will find French,German and dutch at every corner like in Europe.!

Furthermore, Obama was lucky ! In most American expensive and "private schools" ,some are much more flexible in teaching a second language to its students. It is clear his elitism keeps tripping him up about realities.

Besides, Americans hit the jack pot! English!

The reason ENGLISH IS THE OFFICIAL language is BECAUSE of all of the ethnic diversity. We need a common denominator. By forcing Americans to learn Spanish is an INSULT TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC!
What an INSULT to all of us Polish, Italian, German, Czech and other nationalities whose ancestors LEARNED ENGLISH at a time when THERE WAS NO WELFARE OR HELP FROM ANY GOV'T OFFICE BECAUSE THEY HAD TO WORK TO SURVIVE!!!! They just WANTED TO BE AMERICAN!!!
Anyone with any common sense knows that the only reason our Government caters to these succybuses is because their friends in BIG BUSINESS are employing them by the MILLIONS in order to save money by using CHEAP LABOR and the politicians are getting KICKBACKS from it!
When will the madness stop? When every last penny has been sucked out of our system and we're ALL living out in the wilderness eating dirt to survive!
Our POLITICIANS are the REAL TERRORISTS!!!

What REALLY PI---S ME OFF is the fact that, as a Receptionist, my chances of finding employment in my field are now getting slimmer THANKS TO HAVING TO BE BILINGUAL in order to work in a doctor's office, bank, law firm, or damn near ANYWHERE here in the good ole US of A!
WHAT IS GOING ON???? REALLY! Why is it that ENGLISH served us so well for OVER 200 YEARS, but now, suddenly, everyone HAS to learn Spanish! What the He-- is next? Having to denounce our citizenship so as not to offend anyone straight off the boat (or straight out of the underground tunnel)?
NO FOLKS, AMERICA IS BEING STOLEN BY GREED AND WHAT'S WORSE IS WE ARE FORCED TO CHOOSE FROM THE LESSER OF THE EVILS-MUCH LIKE A COMMUNIST REGIME!!!
Things won't change until WE CHANGE THEM!!!
