"What she said was that she was very sorry, that she meant no disrespect, that she was trying to make a creative expression of her love for the country," Hickenlooper said.

Both unbelievable and inexcusable! If she was asked to sing A SONG, then she has the right to choose what song to sing! But if she was asked to sing THE Star Spangled Banner, which is THE ONLY National Anthem of the USA as far as Im concerned, then there is no excuse to what she did. You can call it "politically incorrect", but Im tired of that crap. We need to start calling a spade a spade!

Now let me go outside and drive the X around...
