When I came home today, my mother, who lives with us, had on a television show called the Talk. Five or six women sitting around a table talking about whatever they talk about.
Minnie Driver was a guest on the show today. She explained how in December she became a US citizen. She explained the thrill and excitement of being in the LA Coliseum with 8,000 other people all taking their oath of citizenship. She further spoke of the encouraging and uplifting speech given by the woman judge that administered the oath on what it meant to be an American. She closed with saying that after living in this country for twenty years she is happy to finally say she is American and no longer pays taxes without representation. She had a tea party to celebrate.
While trying to find a video from the show to post for you all to enjoy, I came across an article regarding Minnie becoming a citizen. In addition to Minnie there were people from 120 countries taking the oath with her. Sadly I couldn't find a video.
Congratulations and Welcome Minnie and the other 7,999 new US Citizens.
