I agree that we should keep English speeking only in all Public Offices. We do not cater to other none english languages. I have had a business in Kennewick for 24 years an it is a increasing problem with people that cant speak english to understand basic things that they need to know. Not to metion a safety issue if you have a person that cant speak english during a safety problem. This is always been an eglish speaking country and all other races have learned the language.

Yep, leave it to the politicians. They will do anything to get a vote regardless of how the outcome may affect the country in the long run.
We don't need two languages! The USA has been an English speaking nation for 233 years. The legals and illegals need to learn to speak English. The politicians are destroying our Nation! |

Well, you weak knee @astards need to lay the issue to rest!
Are we going to have two sets of road signs, two sets of menus at restaurants, two of everything, etc. It is a no brainer! You folks set down your foot and say English only and maybe a few of the other communities around the country will jump on the band-wagon! Now, go do the right thing! |

It is time! Why do we have to cater to them? Nobody catered to my ancestors when they came here. Our ancestors had to learn the language. I agree that enough is enough. What ever happened to the stipulation that you had to live here 7 years in order to be a citizen? If they were, they would know the language! Time for Americans to start standing up for our own!

Well, it's all about VOTES. The politicians don't give a hoot about the community. It's all about them getting re-elected.
The green carders, illegals, etc., need to learn to speak English. In my opinion, the topic is not debateable. English and no other language! |

Daily Horoscope for December 31
Sagittarius
You're in a strange mood, Sagittarius. You're feeling impatient and cross, and nothing is quite right. No wonder, with Mercury and Mars retrograde, under a Full Moon lunar eclipse! But is it necessary to be quite so contrary, so determined to do the opposite of what's expected of you? Try to sort out the problem sooner rather than later, then do something energetic and therapeutic so you can burn off your nervous energy. Then you're all set for a great New Year's Eve!
