Oops, Christina Aguilera Messed Up National Anthem at Super Bowl … flubs ‘O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming’

RUT-ROH … Christina Aguilera just made up her own version of the US National Anthem. On the most grand stage, I guess she should have asked a “Genie in a bottle” for the correct lyrics.

US NATIONAL ANTHEM

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hail’d at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro’ the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watch’d, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro’ the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Super Bowl XLV was not quite as super as some are claiming; however, neither was Christina Aguilera’s rendition of the National Anthem prior to the game. Aguilera messed up a line as she sang the national anthem. At the time when I first listened, I thought something sounded a bit wrong. What happened was, when she was supposed to sing the line “O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming,” she repeaeated an earlier line. Oops, like a Southwest Air commercial, wanna get away? Needless to say that thetweets, Facebook and texting went insane after the gaffe.

Naturally tweeters and other online commenters went nuts, calling Xtina a bimbo and a hack, among other choice names. But what do you think? Is this mistake inexcusable? Or should we cut Aguilera a break for at least demonstrating her vocal talents, if not a rock-solid memory?

 RUT-ROH

 

Christina Aguilera flubbed a line as she belted out the national anthem at the start of the Super Bowl Sunday night.

When she was supposed to sing the line “O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming,” she instead repeated an earlier line, with a slight variation.

She sang “What so proudly we watched at the twilight’s last gleaming,” which is the same line from earlier in the song but with the word ‘watched’ instead of the word ‘hailed.’

Looks like Christina got it right HERE.

Ok, lets point out the positives of the National Anthem in the VIDEO above. Kudos to the NFL showing the US troops at Camp Leatherneck in Afghanistan and the grown men NFL players tearing up as they listened to the words.

Oops, President Barack Obama Confuses Iraq & Afghanistan … “Combat Operations in Afghanistan Have Ended”

Barack Obama, oh he’s Reaganesque all right, NOT!

During a recent interview, as reported by the Politico, Obama made a complete muddled mess out of  out of his plans for withdrawing troops from the region. The Commander in Chief stated, “Combat Operations in Afghanistan Have Ended.”Really, who knew? I guess we can blame the gaffe on Obama’s teleprompter because we all know that the MSM will never question him on his glaring mistake. Doesn’t it instill confidence in America that their president does not know the difference between Iraq and Afghanistan? This coming from the man who the media calls the smartest president ever.

Who needs VP Joe Biden for gaffes when we have Barack Hussein Obama …

“As I said, we will be out of Afghanistan by the end of this year… Combat operations in Afghanistan have ended.” 

 

Video hat Tip: Gateway Pundit

Can you imagine the hue and cry that would have gone out through out the land by the MSM if GWB or Reagan had made such a gaffe? What about Sarah Palin? But for some reason Barack Obama always gets a free pass on all of his screw ups. What else would one expect from a bias media.

The full interview can be seen HERE.

Are You Feeling Safe America … Janet Napolitano: We’re Working “24/7, 364? To Keep The American People Safe

More brilliance from the Obama Gang that couldn’t shoot straight … SHE SAID WHAT!

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano in an interview on ABC’s World News Tonight with Diane Sawyer sat down to discuss the possibility of a terror attack over the holidays.  Janet Napolitano doing her best impersonation of VP Biden said the following, “What I say to the American people is that… thousands of people are working 24/7, 364 days a year to keep the American people safe.”

Imagine if GWB or Sarah Palin made such a comment, it would be front page news in every paper and leading the nightly news.

 

 24/7, 364 days!!! What!

How absolutely pathetic is it that one gets such an overused phrase like 24/7/365 wrong. So what day did she take off, maybe it was last Christmas when we had the underwear bomber on Christmas day.

Janet Napolitano did not elaborate as to what was the one day that the DHS is not keeping America safe nor did Diane Sawyer bother to ask a follow up question. So what is the one day that Janet Napolitano is taking off? Fear not America, Napolitano is on the job battling the war on climate change.

VP Biden Claims GOP has Spent $200 Billion in Political Ads … What a Dunce.

Vice President Joe Biden, the gaffe-man strikes again …

Vice President Biden tries to distract from the midterm elections while he whines about political ads instead of trying to run on the agenda of the Democrat party. Biden even manages to screw that up as well. What a shock.

 Biden says that the Republicans have spent $200 billion in political ads. Really Joe, $200 billion? No wonder the GOP is cleaning the Democrats clock and are on the verge of a midterm election tsunami. Too bad for the gaffe prone VP Bidenthat is the amount he was looking for was $200 million. That is million Joe, with an “M”. However, we must forgive Biden as with the beating the Democrats are about to take in the 2010 midterm elections … it must feel like $200 billion worth of ads.

The Republicans has spent 2 billion dollars …

“I was amazed at the amount of money, this $200 billion of money that is — where there’s no accountability,”Vice President Joe Biden said. “When I say accountability, we don’t know where it’s coming from. There’s no disclosure, so the folks watching the ad can’t make a judgment based upon motive when you say it’s paid for by so-and-so,” he added.

VP Joe Biden Once Again Influencing People and Making Friends … “You’re the dullest audience I’ve ever spoken to”

Biden at it again …

President Barack Obama and VP Joe Biden have finally found the winning combination to getting their base out to vote for the 2010 midterm elections … insult them.

Biden said to an audience in Wisconsin, “You’re the dullest audience I’ve ever spoken to.” And the Dems wonder why there is an enthusiasm gap with the GOP. Go figure, you have a Democrat VP telling you about jobs you lost and some how that is supposed to be inspiring and uplifting. What must Democrat Governors, House and Senate candidates be thinking. We have a President that is so toxic we cannot even reference his name or policies, let alone have him campaign directly and a VP who is such a goof and court jester that votes go out the window every time he opens his mouth. At least this time he only called the audience dull, he didn’t tell them to stop whining.

Vice President Joe Biden got a laugh from his audience at a Wisconsin fundraising event Thursday when he tried to rile the crowd about the economic collapse of 2008.

“We want to reward people who manufacture things in the United States, in Wisconsin, not to take them overseas to China and to other countries!” he said to a silent room at the event for Democratic gubernatorial nominee Tom Barrett, according to a White House pool report.

He continued, saying, “You’re the dullest audience I’ve ever spoken to,” at which point he got applause and laughs. “Do you realize how many jobs Wisconsin lost? It’s staggering!”

Biden and President Obama have made frequent campaign stops in recent weeks in an attempt to jolt Democrats who are lagging Republicans in voter enthusiasm measures, in part due to the slowing pace of the economic recovery under the administration’s watch.

At least he didn’t make any of the Democrat donors in the audience stand up and take a bow who were in wheelchairs. I guess the VP is growing into his role.

First Dukakis, Now Walter Mondale Give Obama Advice: “Stop Relying on “Idiot Boards” … Teleprompters, to Talk to the American People

Mondale has a message to Obama, the Teleprompter in Chief” or is it the “Idiot Board in Chief”?

As we speculated after Michael Dukakis stopped by the White House to give advice to President Obama, it was only a matter of time before Walter Mondale, another successful failed Democrat Presidentalcandidate showed up to provide his two cents.

Walter Mondale,  the former VP under Carter and failed Democrat Presidential candidate who lost in a landslide to Ronald Reagan, stated in an interview with CNN that President Barack Hussein Obama should stop relying on “idiot boards,”  i.e. teleprompters, to deliver his message to the American people.

 

Walter Mondale has some advice for President Obama if he wants to win a second term: drop the teleprompter.

He uses these idiot boards to read speeches in television, and I think he loses the connection that he needs emotionally with American voters,” Mondale said in an interview set to air this evening on CNN’s The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, according to a transcript from the network.

“Idiot board” is a term used in television and movie production to refer to boards held up for performers to read off.

“If you’re looking at the teleprompter, you’re here, you’re here, you’re here and you’re — your audience is right there,” Mondale said. “And I think he needs to do more of that.”

As Hot Air reminds us, do you really want Obama off script and off his teleprompter. Don’t ask for things they might come true Democrats. BTW Barack, it is not up to you as to who has the keys to the car, it is up to WE THE PEOPLE.

 

Or when the Teleprompter when blank and so did Obama this time … Remember this doozy! There really is a reason why they call it an “IDIOT BOARD”.

 

Yikes, Was Obama Just Called “A Cotton Picking” President by CNN?

WOW, did a CNN host just call President Barack Hussein Obama … “the cotton-picking President”? 

Yes, that is exactly was CNN Host Rick Sanchez did. Imagine, just imagine if those same words came from the mouth of Sean Hannity or Glenn Beck? Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, et all would be marking in the streets, No Justice, No Peace … and calling for their jobs.

One would think that a media type might want to find another phrase to use when describing Americas’ first black president.

 

7 Year Old Julie Murphy Receives “Get Out of Jail Free” Card and is Allowed to Sell 50 cent Lemonade After All

There has been a “REVERSAL OF FORTUNE” in the case of 7 year old Julie Murphy selling 50 cent lemonade.

Julie Murphy, the 7 year old Oregonian girl who had her 50 cent lemonade stand shut down by a fool-hearty, over reaching and idiotic government bureaucrat, received an apology and permission to sell lemonade after all without purchasing a $120 temporary restaurant license. Go figure, children will not have to purchase a $120 license to sell lemonade. What a concept. However, would this reversal have occured if not for the outrage of common sense people?

No need to jack up the price of a glass of lemonade. Turns out kids won’t have to shell out $120 for a health permit to run their lemonade stands after all.

MSNBC Clown Keith Olbermann Gets History Lesson Wrong on Abe Lincoln & NV GOP US Senate Candidate Sharron Angle, “Lost a few but won the Big One”

Hey Keith, before you decide to act so smug as if you know it all, you might actually want to do some history fact checking or read a book. File this one under stuck on stupid. Just another case of a loss of  credibility for the far left leaningMSNBC. Far be it from Olbermann or MSNBC to let the facts get in the way of good hate and liberal media bias.

Don’t liberals tout themselves as being so much more smarter than us “We the People?” Are not we constantly reminded that those Tea Party folks are just ignorant, uniformed peasants who cling to their patriotism, guns and bibles. Fret no more America, liberals are as clueless and uninformed as it gets … enter MSNBC’s head dolt, Keith Olbermann.

Because MSNBC has no ratings, many of you may never have seen the following VIDEO where uber-clueless Lib Keith Olbermann goes after GOP Nevada Senate candidate Sharon Angle for her comments regarding Abraham Lincoln and his election record. Angle stated on a radio show, “Well, you know, it`s just like Abraham Lincoln. He lost quite a few. But he won the big one. He won the one that mattered for this country. And really that`s what we`re in”.

News Busters has the transcript of the Olberman gaffe VIDEO.

Really, just one Keith? Olbermann was so quick so go after Sharon Angle as she is the Tea Party candidate in Nevada going against Democrat incumbent and Senate Majority leader Harry Reid. Reid is presently trailing in the polls so of course the liberal MSM will do every thing to attack Angle.

VP Joe Biden Makes Comparison of Republican Tactics to Nazi “Blitzkrieg” and Insults Tea Party as Well

He is Joe Biden and he’s GAFFETASTIC! However, is it really a gaffe if it was intentional hateful speech with a purpose?

This clown just does not know when to shut up and once again has opened his mouth or email if you will and put his foot in it again. This time Biden compares the GOP to the Nazi “Blitzkrieg”.

Vice President Biden is out with an alarmed e-mail cash appeal warning that the GOP will mount a “blitzkrieg” against Democrats in the fall.

Comparing GOP tactics to the fast-striking forces of Nazi Germany, Biden warns in a message sent by the DCCC today: “As things heat up, you can expect House Democrats will be hit with a GOP blitzkrieg of vicious Swift-Boat-style attack ads, Karl Rove-inspired knockout tactics, thinly veiled attempts at character assassination and tea party disruptions.”

And while the GOP is mounting a blitzkrieg, Democrats are the allies.

“Our Democratic allies in the House need your help, and the President and I hope we can count on you to come to their defense so we can hold onto our Democratic Majority and continue moving American forward in a new direction,” Biden writes in the appeal.

Of all the words in the English language and comparisons one can make, Biden choses a term synonomous with Nazi Germany and crimes against humanity? When will these people grow up and understand, not only is such talk inappropriate and uncalled for. It also minimizes and insults the actually crimes done against millions in WWII.

The actual words that  Biden wrote were as follows:

“As things heat up, you can expect House Democrats will be hit with a GOP blitzkrieg of vicious Swift-Boat-style attack ads, Karl Rove-inspired knockout tactics, thinly veiled attempts at character assassination and tea party disruptions,” Biden wrote.

The Obama Administration and Democrats are digging their hole even deeper. Is it any wonder why Obama, Biden and the Democrat party has lost the middle and Independent voters?  Do Democrats really think that the sane American public appreciates the comparisons to Nazis? Recently, Senator Claire McCaskill suspended a staff member without pay for comparing conservative activists to Nazi brownshirts, will Obama do the same to Joe Biden?

What else can we expect from the tolerant LEFT.
