Obama may look at bank fees to rein in deficit
Mon Jan 11, 2010
- It was bound to come. As soon as we allowed the Federal Government in to bail out bad businesses, now anything goes. We can't go to the Supreme Court because we set a precedent by INVITING interference. We can't stop the runaway spending and borrowing because Congress goes along with it.
Experts: ‘Rumbling’ volcano could blow up soon
Mon Dec 21, 2009
- Everyone is making a big joke out of this: Climate control, Al Gore, money, plugging the volcano, etc. Has anyone thought of the PEOPLE involved with this? These people are dirt poor. Their farms are the only things they have just to feed themselves.
Autism seen as asset, not liability, in some jobs
Tue Dec 8, 2009
- I have a niece who was diagnosed in 4th grade with Asperger's. Because of this, she and my sister received training. She still can't look people in the eye. She concentrates on their forehead instead. She's highly intelligent.
Most obese pregnant women gain too much
Mon Oct 26, 2009

Thu Dec 3, 2009
- I'm sorry that I don't have time t0 read all the blogs. However, the first ones hit exactly what I thought. I was a teacher. What I taught was pablum when I compared it to what I learned at the same age. Then my daughter learned less. "No child left behind" has injured the educationsal system.

Woman bites off molester's tongue
Tue Nov 10, 2009

Comments & Feedback

Abanidi, thank you for your insight on the "English Law" thread!

I come from a line of more-recent-than-most Danish immigrants, who did not speak a bit of English until they decided to move to America. Upon moving to America, they learned English and integrated into American culture.

We didn't lose our culture or native language, just adopted American culture and the English language. No one in my family feels ashamed of this.

Long before we immigrated here and even now my family has been blessed with many authors, even writing of the journey of my great-grandparents on their way to America. All the books that were published here were in English. We've always been taught that writing or speaking in anything other than English in public is rude, and I believe that myself.

I am forever and always, first and foremost, an American. My ethnic culture comes second. We should all be proud to be American first.
