Jingo Bells, its Christmas Time for Immigrant Hate

The minute they start talking about immigration, the GOP starts to take on a nasty edge. For the most part, the President has left that to Lou Dobbs and his friends, who have trotted out every anti-immigrant story they can find on the wire as Important Breaking News. This uproar over the singing of the National Anthem in Spanish is ridiculous, but it gets a lot of people to show their true colors.

Bush was on CNN this morning saying the National anthem should be sung in English.  But he followed it up with an even stronger line -- "I think if they want to be citizens, they should learn to speak English."  I don't know if that was a policy opinion or just his personal feelings, but I'd love to know how many (and which) of our elected officials agree with him.
