[QUOTE=sfloriII]I saw the quote on several shirts while attending an event on the National Mall (actually near the WWII Memorial) a couple months ago that celebrated the anniversary of the day Japan surrendered. Many family members of veterens had them on. We're still speaking english here in the states thanks to the vets who have fought for our freedom. (I hope I'm not offending anyone here.)QUOTE]

I see some variation of the 'speaking English...' quote on bumper stickers fairly often.

Ironic how the only foreign power to ever invade the U.S. was....the English.

I applaud veterans for many things, but preserving the English language is not one of them.
