The national anthem, their way…


They did it their way. (Like the rest of us!)

Some inconsequential uproar and controversy has been brewing about the new spanish-language version of the United States’ national anthem. See Michelle Malkin’s lowdown on “Nuestro Himno”. Or WaPo’s: here.
I don’t know what the fuss is about. Everybody knows that the real national anthem is “My Way!” (Is there anything more american than appropriating and translating everything into one’s own idiom? Not to mention the complete assimilation of the capitalist ideal: 9 of the ten dollars they sell the CD for go into their own pockets, with the remaining measly one going to the effort they’re supposedly supporting.)
