The Democrats issued yesterday for the first time a response to the State of the Union address in Spanish:

“ATLANTA (CNN) — Por primera vez en la historia, el Partido Democrata respondio el lunes al mensaje sobre el estado de la union del presidente George W. Bush con un discurso en espanol a cargo del gobernador de Nuevo Mexico Bill Richardson.

(Roughly) “For the first time in history, the Democratic party responded Monday with a message about the State of the Union address of President George W. Bush with a response in spanish given by the governor of New Mexico, Bill Richardson.”
