"doesn't like the National Anthem?"

I would bet B.H.O. cannot recite the words because he never learned them.

The “messiah” doesn’t like ANYTHING about America. That’s why he wants to CHANGE it. ALL of it.

The truth hurts, huh CNN???

a long-debunked e-mail rumor that Barack Obama refuses to put his hand on his heart when the national anthem is played

How is it "debunked?" That photo is pretty clear to me! I am so sick of the press drooling over Obama.

“Country Boy Can Survive” is hands down one of the greatest songs ever written.

Someone said the truth. We can’t have that!

Musically, the Star Spangled Banner is interesting. If performed in F major, all of the B's in the lower octave will be B-naturals (in the upper octave, Bb's). I wonder if that was true of the tune upon which it's based.

Also, while the SSB is written in 3/4 and generally performed that way, it is also sometimes performed in 4/4. I've never heard it done in 5/4, 6/8, or 7/8, but those time signatures would also give it an interesting feel.
