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.
