Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Sunday, February 12, 2012

An activist who critics call a "white nationalist" claims to have had dinner with Rick Santorum as part of the festivities surrounding the 2012 Conservative Political Action Conference, according to Talking Points Memo.

Bob Vandervoort is director of ProEnglish, an advocacy group that hopes to outlaw U.S. classes or legislative sessions in any language other than English. It is his connection to a group called Chicagoland Friends of American Renaissance, however, that liberal critics claim marks out Vandervoort as a dangerous right wing radical.

I've had dinner with liberals. Does that make me a socialist?

I agree with the English only part.

"liberal critics claim marks out Vandervoort as a dangerous right wing radical."

Hell, liberals call half of America dangerous right wing radicals. Just ask Nan.

Sanitarium is going to have to fight ronpaul1776 for the Klan vote.

KBM, you vastly over-estimate size of the Republican base

"White nationalist" my butt. Liberals always seem to try and make anything which is pro-American -- such as this country having English as it's national language -- appear as though it's "racist and evil" in nature.

And what's wrong with being a "nationalist" anyway when it comes to teaching children in the ENGLISH language -- now proven to be the best method in helping them to learn in school.

California tried - and miserably failed -- at educating children who spoke English as a second language through use of bilingual classes at school. The graduation rate of those kids was dismal. Californians, fed up with thousands of those kids being unable to graduate, then voted in Proposition 227 to use English-submersion classes in order to teach them and it's proven so far to be much more successful.

Bi-Lingual Classes not as good as English Submersion classes

And as for any U.S. government session being conducted in any other language than in English -- the national language spoken in this country -- is wrong.

#6 - I think saying "the left" in my first sentence would have been a better choice of words than my use of the word "liberals." They do not always mean one and the same.

I don't like Santorum worth a good Goddamn, or Vandervoort either, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with a country proclaiming a national language. The French did it long ago. In fact, to become a French citizen, an immigrant has to pass a test for language proficiency and a decent working knowledge of France's history and political system, as well as swearing allegiance to French values. The saying is that an immigrant must become "more French than the French."

There is nothing wrong with creating a common experience for a nation's citizens, a way for them all to communicate and share with each other. Our current politically correct system of permitting - even encouraging - immigrants to seal themselves off from our larger culture by making it unnecessary for them to speak or understand English is damaging this country, with sub-group after sub-group walled off into ghettos of the mind.

P.S.: France's language proficiency test is administered by its police. Talk about putting some teeth into an immigration law....

Frothy is a fanatic, plain and simple. It's no surprise he keeps this sort of company.
