    National, Smnational

    I could care less about any anthem, but that doesn't mean I don't understand why people are upset over a Spanish-language version (which by the way isn't the United States national anthem translated into spanish but a different song altogether). Now that I said I understand and repect people's feelings over the National anthem and all things red, white and blue please allow me the option of not siging the song, putting my hand over my heart or standing to pledge alegence to the flag.

    —Vincent
