Shocked by Salazar's speech in Spanish
This Speakout has not been edited
By James J. Tenant, Lt. Commander, U.S. Navy, Retired, Centennial
When U.S. Sen. Salazar took office, he said, “I’m not the Hispanics’ senator". His political track record to-date, tells a far different story. Much like “Mecca: nuke’em till they glow” Tancredo, I am shocked Salazar delivered the Democrats’ pre-State of the Union address in Spanish, as reported in the Jan. 20 Rocky Mountain News article, “Colo. senators clash over Spanish speech". Latinos comprise 14% of this nation’s population, and it is un-American that Salazar selfishly opted to communicate only to this small segment of citizens and “illegals". Furthermore, Salazar uses his energies only for the financial gains of the ag industry and Vatican, through the exploitation of criminal illegal Mexicans, and their new -wave “paid” slave labor. “Illegals” contribute to blacks only by adding to our already staggering misery-index (decreases in wages and benefits, resegregation of communities, corrupting the Voting Rights Act of 1965, retarding black student achievements, etc.).
Blacks comprise 14% of this nation’s population too, and it is clear that Salazar has fired a shot across the bow (hood), that he only represents Latinos, and Allard has clearly shown he only represents whites. Colorado blacks are left without any representation in the U.S. Senate. If U.S. Sen. Obama had delivered this speech, he wouldn’t have done it through any African language dialect. Obama can’t communicate to blacks in a selfish way, because when we came to this country, we were stripped of our native language, religion, culture, and our women-folk were raped and bred like cattle, in pursuit of Herculean slaves. Salazar supports Bush in his attempts to strip Arabs of their religion, language, and culture. It is mind-boggling that Salazar can distribute a newsletter, listing his vapor accomplishments (Bush-league), with no mention of Iraq-NAM. When the Vietnam War “broke-out", Salazar broke for sanctuary in the priesthood and Romney scampered off to his Mormon mission. In their stead, 55% of the “draftee-soldiers", killed “in-country” Vietnam, were black, while we only comprised 14% of the nation’s entire population. Ali is still scratching his head. Allard called Sen. Feingold a “insurgency-sider". I wonder if Allard considers himself and Salazar, “communist-siders".
Despite hundreds of e-mails and letters I’ve written to Salazar and Allard, regarding how disabled black Vietnam veterans’ job, contracting, and disability benefits are being stolen, neither has chosen to take any action or responded. This fraud, waste, and abuse of federal funds, is true within all Front Range regional federal agencies, state and local government agencies, and their corrupt contractors. Allard did go to the rescue of a white disabled Vietnam veteran, and he got that warrior more then $400K in arrears VA disability pay. Allard could only blush though, when it was disclosed that this warrior lied about him being a POW. No sighting of Tancredo, Pelosi, Reid, and the Denver Deputy USAG, on this Mile-High racist fraud.
Cunningham and Ney could use some more “roomies". I proudly join U.S. Rep. John Murtha (USMC Vietnam War-hero), “I wouldn’t serve in today’s armed forces".
Usually immigrants assimilate to the country they migrate to. Sen. Salazar is showing that he believes America citizens should assimilate to the immigrants.
Posted by Ed on February 4, 2007 07:59 AMWow!! I did not know that Salazar's relatives came to Colorado and were related to Coronado and stayed behind to settle here!
Isn't this an amazing story!!
Sen. Salazar is descended from the first non-Indian Europeans in Colorado, the Spanish. He is not Mexican as much as the hate-mongers want to pretend that he is. Spanish is a great language, and we would be better as a nation if we encouraged bi-lingualism. English, of course, remains our dominant language, remains the "language of business" and is not in danger of dying out. If English is mandated as the only language, what of our state's name, what of our many place names? Will we still be allowed to eat tortilla chips as long as we call them tortiLas?
Posted by Oliver on February 3, 2007 09:18 AMI am VERY disappointed in Sen Salazar! I voted for him and I am still in support of his being our US Senator but this is not what I want or expect of ANYONE representing Colorado in Washington. I am fairly liberal on the imigration issue and favor the mexican and latino communities keep there heritage, as well as an expanded guess worker programe but I do believe that in the USA we should use and conduct business in English and that it should be the PRIMARY (not only) language. For Ken Salazar to have done this in his official capacity as Senator from Colorado, is a very inappropriate and unwise thing to have done!
