They should have this at the start of sporting events not some wash-up, wannabe American Idol killing the national anthem whilst simultaneously strangling a cat.
this song will always have meaning in the hearts of those of us who love our country and her ideals. we just have to fight that socialist every step of the way.
@classyXC Nowhere in the U.S. constitution does it say "fight the socialists." If an ideal is widespread in our country, where we have freedom of speech (and general belief), who are we to say it's Anti-American?
It does not say it, and people should be able to speak about any changes in the government, but many of us do not believe the founding fathers meant for a government to be so big and in control of our lives, or one that provides so many services for people by taking, through force, from others. The govt should provide a military and have certain laws that protect us from physical and other types of harm, but little more beyond that.
2.10.9. When displayed from a staff in a church or public auditorium, the flag of the United States should hold the position of superior prominence and in the position of honor at the clergyman's or speaker's right as he faces the audience. ... When the flag is not on stage but placed on the floor in front of the stage, the flag is to the right of the audience.
Ooops. Flags are displayed in the wrong order. The U.S. flag should be on the viewers left. All other flags go to the right. But at least they dipped the correct flag upon "present arms."
You have had time to check whether the flags are backwards. If you have, then you know I'm right. Why do you insist on embarassing yourself in a public forum. I have no beef with you. But by trying to tell a Marine what to do and applying your own logic, that makes you a dumb ass. Must you prove it?
U guys r really good love u!

@1Memeloves Well, perheps they just dislike this specific viedw with it´s poor quality.
That spoils it a little.
But at least the hymn is played like a national hymn and not like an operette for once, that´s nice!

It's sad because this song won't mean a thing after 4 years of Obama Marxism.

The 4th verse .... Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Do you know where our National Anthem came from?
A British pub song. Not the words but the music. If you could not sing it, you could not get another drink.
I do love the song. Playing it is not fun but hey its my countries song, and i love them both.
