Maybe not urbany lengendy (cute) but not the same as the original post either, neither one of the ones you posted are. hmmmmmm

yep

but the jest is the same

62 to 35

could have been another vote with the other outcome


could have been a typo


but the basis of the idea is listed correctly

technically, the link to snopes refers to a vote in may, not june.

so it might not even be the same...however, there may have been wording or something in the bill that they objected to...blood boilage is a little extreme.

Regardless to when or what, it was a waste of our taxpayer dollars to have them sit for that vote anyway. America is english speaking it is known world wide, this will never change so it shouldn't even be on the roster.

oh, i'm in agreement with you...

i find it silly that people get all pretentious about where they had the LUCK to be born.

the senate is paid salary

i doubt if they turn the utilities down when not in session

so it did not waste tax money

and you can not assume things will stay
in english just cause thats as it is now

Belgium Stalemate Hits Record 149 Days

BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) - Belgium reached a record of 149 days without an acting government Tuesday, and slumped closer to a collapse of coalition talks between the country's French- and Dutch-speaking politicians.

Linguistic strife was also the cause of the previous record of 148 days of political stalemate in 1988. Ever since the 1960s, Belgium has moved from a unitary state to a federal one where Flanders, Wallonia and bilingual Brussels have obtained increasing autonomy.

There is no reason for a country to have one language!

We should realize we are a multi-cultural country! Yes, No doubt about that, but we should speak one language!

Since English is the most widely spoken, (by far), and first iy should be American English!!

Are you fearmongering here? Trying to say that our government will collapse if English is not made the "legal" language here?

those that do not learn from history

are doomed to repeat it

WHEN IN ROME DO AS THE ROMANS DO IT WAS GOOD THEN AND YOU WOULD THINK IT WOULD APPLY NOW WHY DO WE NEED TO LEARN ANOTHER LANGUAGE TO ACCOMIDATE NON INVITED VISITORS I WENT TO THE PHILIPPINES AND LEARNED TO SPEAK TAGALOH I WENT AND STAYED IN MEXICO AND LEARNED SPANISH THEY DID NOT GO OUT OF THEIR WAY TO LEARN ENGLISH JUST BECAUSE I WAS THERE LEGALLY,IT BESIGES ME THE THINKING AND RATIONALITY OF SOME OF THE PEOPLE HERE AND I DONT REALLY THINK MOST OF YOU TRUELLY BELIEVE WHAT YOU ARE SAYING ,I DO BELIEVE YOU JUST LIKE TO JERK SOMEONE'S CHAIN TO SIMPLY BE CONFRONATIONAL GET REAL IF YOU ARE REALLY THAT INEPT SEEK COUNCILING,WITH THE MAJORITY OF U.S. CITIZENS DIFFER WITH YOU MAYBE NOT MAYBE YOU ARE WRONG I REALISE COMMON SENCE DOESN'T NOT RUN RAMPID AND IT SHOWS........

It is a waste of our tax payer dollars to pursue this matter any farther. Obviously enough senators believe the same.
