Bush makes a Funny
from BBC news today:
"Kidron enlisted the vocals and instruments of dozens of Latino musicians, including the hip-hop star Pitbull and the singer Carlos Ponce, to turn the theme song of the American soul [the National Anthem] into something which everyone from south of the Rio Grande can sing - especially if their patriotic fervour isn't matched by their ability to speak English [since the recording is a Spanish translation]...
Between weightier matters like Iran's nuclear threat and prices at the pump, the beleaguered president stood in the Rose Garden of the White House on Friday, looking very earnest.
He tried to nip this part of the immigration debate in the bud by declaring flatly that the anthem should be sung in English and that anyone coming to live in this country should learn English.
He stumbled on the word English but the point was taken."
