- A Spanish rendition of "The Star Spangled Banner" is causing a growing chorus of controversy. [...]
While some Americans are embracing the song. For others, the song is striking a sour note, among them President Bush.
During a Rose Garden question-and-answer session today Bush responded to the controversy saying, "I think the National Anthem ought to be sung in English. And, I think people who want to be a citizen of this country ought to learn English."
Oh, and if he really thinks people who want to be American citizens should learn English, to whom were all his Spanish-language campaign ads addressed?
