Make all the jokes you want! Laugh to your heart’s content about Bush’s very limited vocabulary; or Americans’ loyalty to one spousal language and only fling encounters with a few Tex-Mex dialects! Although we may not yet recognize it, this nation of ours has ceased to be a monolingual butt of embarrassment. We are now, officially to the world, fully bilingual.
