English Language Amendment

Senator Harry Reid (D-Nev) said "It is racism"... "Unconstitutional" oh and "Mean Spirited"
Huh? The Vote is very shortly...
Give me a Break, why isn't English already our National Language? Watch your tax dollars at work....on the Senate Floor!! This is ridiculous.....

UPDATE: Amendment Passed 63-34
To make ENGLISH the "National Language of U.S."
Guess who voted against it....(lol) The obvious...Clue: The Democrats!!

UPDATE: Friday -Via Washington Times excerpt:

Mr. Reid's charge of racism caused a stir of whispers in the Senate chamber and gallery, and Sen. James M. Inhofe, the Oklahoma Republican who offered the amendment, was clearly offended.

~snip~ Hypocrite Reid again.......

It's certainly not the first time that Mr. Reid has used stark language in the debate over immigration. "Our federal wallet is stretched to the limit by illegal aliens getting welfare, food stamps, medical care and other benefits without paying taxes," he said in 1993. "These programs were not meant to entice freeloaders and scam artists from around the world."

~snip~ Hypocrite Reid again......

But nearly a year after his "freeloaders" statement, Mr. Reid was on the Senate floor criticizing immigrants again and worrying about their cultural impact.
