“This is Alabama. We speak English. Learn it.”

—Tim James, a Republican candidate for governor of Alabama. James’ campaignposted this ad on YouTube last week (with disabled comments, presumably to avoid any commentary in languages other than English), getting at the most important issues in his state, which has 11 percent unemployment and among the lowest educational attainment rates in the nation.

Between this and the new law in Arizona I’m getting worried that people are going to start kicking the older members of my family out of the country.  America, I’m disappointed in us.
