Right-wing hemiglots

My friend Omar took this pic.

The English language seems to be very elusive to these people.

This is one of my favorites.  The redneck do-rag is a nice touch.

This classic is from a Pat Buchanan “English-only” “conferenece.”  I think if one advocates monoglotism, one should at least master one language.  Monoglotism is so boring, don’t you think?

Following the hellenistic pattern, I coined a word for these English-monoglotists who seem to lack mastery of one language, hemiglots.

To wit:

Polyglot - speaker of multiple languages
Monoglot - speaker of one language
Hemiglot - speaker of half a language

Let’s conclude with a shout out to the dumb-down filter from which most of these people get their “information.” Of course, it’s misspelled.
