Spanish language version of the national anthem

by Tim Howard <tim.howard@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Apr 30, 2006 at 08:48 PM

This is a serious and simple question:  why is everyone so upset that a 
record company in UK has recorded a Spanish-language version of "The 
Star Spangled Banner"?  I have read and heard calls for censorship of 
the song and of anyplace who sells it etc.  Even GW has weighed in 
saying people should sing the anthem in English.

What do they think is going to be the result of such a recording?  It 
certainly doesn't mean no one will still be signing it in English if 
they want.  It doesn't mean Mexicans have "taken over" the USA.  If 
hispanics want to sing the national anthem in Spanish why should anyone 
give a damn?
