nollyOK, I see two basic sets of reactions from people.
I see people reacting to Bush's "keep it in English" statement, which was documentably inane -- not only is there a long history of translation, including ones promoted by the gov't, Bush was singing the anthem in Spanish on the campaign trail.
I see people reacting to the song itself, and this is what I don't understand. Can someone explain what, if anything, is problematic about it?
