Asked about the Spanglish-zed version of the national anthem released this week in solidarity with the illegal alien protests, President Bush said today:

“I think the national anthem ought to be sung in English, and I think people who want to be a citizen of this country ought to learn English and they ought to learn to sing the national anthem in English.”

He made his remarks on the matters during a wide-ranging briefing with reporters.

“I think people who want to be citizens of this country ought to learn English,” Bush said.

Glad to hear that. Maybe the president could take an ever stronger stand in favor of assimilation by practicing what he preaches…and doing something about this:

Snapshots of the White House website in Spanish (note that it is not translated into any other language)…

I repeat the question I’ve asked many times over the course of this debate:

Who’s assimilating whom?
