Bush on the National Anthem Debate...
Finally, Bush is regaining his senses in one respect! According to this article, he believes that" 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."
I know there are many different opinions on this topic, and I know that I certainly have my own opinions (after studying this for three years, and having my opinion change several times).
However, to me, the bottom line is this: they are here ILLEGALLY. The definition of illegal is "prohibited by law; against the law; unlawful; illicit; not authorized or sanctioned" (Webster). If they cannot respect our laws for becoming a lawful citizen, why should we assume that they will respect our other laws?
I know the debates about what the Bible says about aliens, but I also know that God has put governments in place to create order, not chaos. Order includes laws. Laws are to be followed, not broken. Illegal immigrants are BREAKING THE LAW, and that should NEVER be rewarded.
