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.

You think the Emperial Japanese would not have imposed Japanese on us? Or Nazi Germany would not have imposed German on us?
If the antiwar cowards had their way we would not be speaking english.....thats a known fact.
