				A couple of years ago in Philadelphia, a national controversy erupted when Geno's steak owner Joey Vento posted a sign on the front of his order window that said "This Is America: When Ordering Speak English." Joey became somewhat of a hero to many and a despised xenophobe to some civil liberties groups. The sign still hangs in the window today ( the saying is also menacingly tattooed on his forearm) and it is still a sticking point for many in the South Philly neighborhood  and around the country who consider Vento just a mean-spirited, opportunistic bigot. Many of those sensitive-types who objected to Vento's sign will probably have similar issues with the LPGA, who have just passed a mandatory English-proficiency rule for its members. <a href="http://www.golfweek.com/story/lpga-english-news-082508">Golfweek's Beth Ann Baldry</a> broke the story:				<a href="http://deadspin.com/5042067/lpga--to-members-be-more-american-please" title="Click here to read more about LPGA  To Members: Be More American, Please">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
