NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington, D.C.) – Conservative columnist Ann Coutler took to her Twitter account this week to say goodbye to America. For good.

The American pundit and book author is known for her stinging opinions and criticism of liberals, Democrats, Obama, Clinton and almost anyone who counters her right-wing views.

The last straw for Coulter came during this week’s Democratic presidential debate held in Florida where moderators and the audience asked candidates Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders questions in Spanish.

In her tweet, Coulter categorically stated, “Adios, America!”

Now, if you understand Spanish, you know he meant goodbye.  She’s leaving.

The  Adobo Chronicles  could not independently confirm as to which country she is moving to. We can only wish her the best of luck. Buh-bye!

Donald Trump: “Latinos Marco Rubio And Ted Cruz Should Be Disqualified From Running For President”

imageGREENVILLE, South Carolina (The Adobo Chronicles) – Donald Trump, who, for the longest time had questioned Barack Obama’s qualification to be president of the United States over the latter’s citizenship status, has found the perfect opening to protest the candidacies of his leading rivals for the Republican presidential nomination, Senators Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio.

During tonight’s GOP presidential debate in South Carolina, the two Cuban American candidates traded fireworks at each other.  At one point, Rubio questioned Cruz’s ability to understand and speak Spanish, to which the senator for Texas replied in the Spanish language.

Shortly after the debate, Trump said he was going to seek the disqualification of both Rubio and Cruz because he said neither of them, being Cuban, was eligible to run for U.S. president. “They just demonstrated their U.S. citizenship disqualification from the race by showing their Spanish language skills,” Trump said.

“Only natural-born citizens can run for president,” Trump maintained, “so we cannot allow Spanish-speaking candidates to run for U.S. president.”

SARAH PALIN: ‘POPE FRANCIS MUST SPEAK AMERICAN WHEN HE VISITS THE U.S.’

imageWASILLA, Alaska (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – In an interview with CNN last week, former Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin said that Spanish-speaking people must speak American while here in the U.S. And that includes Pope Francis.

The head of the Roman Catholic Church is scheduled to visit the United States on September 22-27, during which he will meet with President and Mrs. Obama, address a joint session of Congress, deliver a speech before the United Nations General Assembly and keynote a huge religious gathering in Philadelphia.

The Argentinian pontiff has said time and again that he is not comfortable speaking in English.  Spanish is his native language.

So when Francis presides over a mass in Washington, D.C. on September 23, he is going to say it in Spanish, according to Cardinal Donald William Wuerl. “It is also in honor of the huge U.S. Hispanic population and the Catholic Church’s advocacy of immigration,” the Cardinal said.

That didn’t sit well with Palin who was baptized a Catholic but began attending non-denominational Christian churches when she was young. At the age of 12, Palin was baptized in the Wasilla Assembly of God, a Pentecostal church whose preacher bordered on fundamentalist.

“While I appreciate the fact that Spanish is the Pope’s first language, I believe that as I previously stated, he should speak American while in America,” Palin said.
