Since the U.S. HAS NO OFFICIAL LANGUAGE, how can it have an ALTERNATE official language????

With all respect Summit, there's so much BS that flies the internet that one must be certain to verify data...and it's not easy (unless you can come up with a "stained" dress)

Where's the beef?...show us please evidence of the executive order.

LMAO!!!!

Sorry Summit but I've hear it all now!

No big deal, we've all fallen for one of these lies (aka: urban legends) at one point or another.

Here's a White house link that publishes Executive Orders. I couldn't find one of making spanish an official alternative language. Maybe somebody else can.

Presidential Executive Orders

Being computer illiterate as I am, and realizing the urban legends thing is out there to be used-I forgot to check it out-Sorry guys and gals!
But this damn thing looked so official-also says to go to
www.firstgov.gov/
Must investigate further, and question my source!!

Damn!!!Kind of looks like I've been had!!!!! I hate it when I get all pissed off about something.........for nothing!!!
I just guess I have a problem with those who I encounter out in the field-driving on CLOSED and WELL POSTED roads because they can't read the sign, because it is not written in the official alternate language!! And this has happened quite often this year.
Sorry again!!!!!!!!!

Try visiting England. You'd be amazed how many languages their government caters for. & if they haven't got a welfare claim form in your language they'll get you an interpreter to fill the form in for ya!

Those people should get a ticket and arrested if necessary. If they can't read road signs, they shouldn't be driving.[:@]

How can the U.S. have an official alternate language when we don't even have a primary language?

PAhunter86 · 12-14-2003, 05:09 PM

English should be the official language. Sometimes I'm at work, and I wont be able to understand what the customer wants...its annoying!
