I am aware of the great consternation and debate over the immigration issue. Of late, it has become vogue, and apparently something politicians think they can latch onto in hopes of solidifying political base.

Whatever.

I have recently listened to Nuestro Himno, the Star Spangled Banner done in Spanish. It is beautiful. I truly enjoyed a song that for years I have not found very musically satisfying.

Now, I hear that many Americans are up in arms because to sing this song in Spanish is an affront to America. It should be done in English, and English only.

Huh?

It seems to me that it is good thing that people from a different culture, people who seek residence in America, would translate the American national anthem in their own language. A good thing.

WHY IS IT SO BAD THAT THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER IS SUNG IN SPANISH?!?
