1. Yeah, it's a big news item right now on Wolfie's Situation Room |
|
Sometimes I think I'd like to lock Wolfie in that room and throw away the key.

2. Well, how about a white on black rape in NC? Missing blonde gal? |

Steroids in sports. Now that's gotta be important to you. Okay, we'll give you poll numbers. But that's as far as we go! No facts, just editorial.

3. This is such bullshit. What difference does it make what language a |
|
citizen chooses the sing National Anthem in. They have pulled this bullshit before when a english singer has tried to jazz it up. Who the fuck cares they are still honoring the country.

4. Who cares if they sing it at all? Republican Brinks trucks are |
|
backing up to the Treasury and hauling away goldbricks 24/7. I care about that.

9. Well, they originally changed the Pledge of Allegience ... |
|
from "I pledge allegience to my flag" to "I pledge allegience to the flag of the United States of America" -- they wanted to make sure that someone wasn't pledging allegience to some other flag. That was long before they further demeaned the Pledge with their religious insertion. It would seem that know-nothings we will always have with us.

5. Those who don't want to hear it sung in Spanish ... |
|
don't deserve to hear any of us sing it in any language.
And what are they going to do -- make it a felony to sing it in Spanish?

6. I Was In Awe When I Heard This Earlier Today. |
|
I shrugged my shoulders and firmly thought "since when does this matter?".
This has to be one of the most perplexing and non-issue gripes I've heard in years. How much more petty could it get.

7. I had lunch in a Mexican restaurant today. |
|
And those sons of bitches waiters were pronouncing the items in Spanish.
If you're going to live in my country, you need to pronounce it the proper way, i.e. "fudgita" "goowhackamoll" "chimneychonga" and "mexican foldy bread."
THIS IS AMERICA!
I've never been so mad.

10. The Precedent speaking non-English concerns me a lot more |
|
than my Spanish neighbors singing in non-English.

12. What I wanna know is how many gringos |
|
listen to Latino radio stations? That is where it will be played. This whole thing is such a "non issue"! Just the RWers and their politics of divisiveness again...
