Obama Says Your Kids Need to Learn Jive er ah Spanish

Barack Obama says “instead of worrying about immigrants having to learn English” we Americans “need to make sure our children can learn Spanish”.
Watch as Barack Obama gets more worked up over not enough American kids learning Spanish than Immigrants learning English.

Lou Dobbs last night pointed out in his commentary that Obama’s remarks were “breathtaking,” “pandering of the lowest sort,” and socially divisive. He also pointed out the ironies that nearly 30 FOREIGN nations have English as their official language and that Obama himself knows no Spanish!

Wild Thing’s comment……..
Obama has consistently opposed making English the official language so much so that he has voted against making it the official English four times in 2006 and 2007
He was one of 34 senators who voted against the measure.
He wants all of us to speak French, Spanish and what will be next? All the while Obama’s 2nd language is uh uh,, duh ,, uh well,, uh uh.! When B. Hussein Obama speaks off the cuff, I swear I don’t understand how he ever earned the title “articulate”?
There is a HUGE difference between being multi-lingual as an individual, and the first language of a country. I am fine with anyone being able to speak more then one language. I think it is cool actually. But this is not what Obama is up to, he wants us to cater to the illegals plain and simple!
And another thing about which this empty suit has no clue.
There’s a reason most Americans don’t go out of their way to learn other languages. All around the world, people learn English. Because they want to.
Anyone who has ever spent years learning a language, only to go to Europe or Asia and have a bunch of people dying to speak English to them, knows this fact very well. Today and for the foreseeable future, English is the language of business, of entertainment, of technology. We don’t make the rest of the world learn English; they do that all by themselves.
And if we had to learn some other language to do what we wanted to do in the world, we would. Duh.
But we don’t. Sure there are minor inconveniences on the individual level for English-only speakers, but for most people they don’t rise to the level of requiring the investment it takes to learn another language. For those who do need to learn another language, of course they do so (assuming they can).
If someone wants to learn another language for the sake of learning, or for some personal reason, that’s beautiful. But it’s simply not necessary to know any language but English almost anywhere in the world today.
We all have learned how many of our troops are learning other languages and that is normal in war. Many of these soldiers that can do this will go on further in their military career as well. It is a huge help to our troops to be able to learn the language of the enemy. But once again this is NOT what Obama is demanding.
Why isn’t America ashamed to have such an Anti-America, Anti-Military, Anti-Semetic, Racist, Elitist, Presumptuous bastard as a candidate for POTUS?
Obama’s other lanugage? heh heh
