Austraila telling it like it is.

Is it too much to ask of our own officials?

Sir,

No offense intended at all by this. I believe though that this article is a tad misleading.

http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/australia.asp

While it's true that this has been said by some Australian officials, the article itself makes it appear that this is official government policy, which it isn't.

I do agree though that immigrants should adapt to the country they are in, rather than other way around.

I'm usually pretty darn good at checking these things out before posting but I totally didn't check this one out on Snopes this time.

Good to see that some of it is factual at least and thanks for keeping me straight.
