You would think that a politician could come up with a better answer when faced with the question of "Can you sing the National Anthem?" Well, kudos for speaking the truth.
ABC News did a story on the issue of mandating that the National Anthem be sung in English. They decided to press the leaders on Capitol Hill by basically asking "Can you sing the entire national anthem or recite the lyrics?" A recent poll revealed that 61 percent of Americans cannot correctly recite the lyrics, much less sing them. The story discusses how some of the Congressional leaders answered (or dodged) the question. When they asked our Senator this is what was reported..... "South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsay Graham was gentlemanly when we put him on the spot, saying, "I am like 61 percent of Americans. If I had to get up and recite the national anthem, I would fail miserably." Where is Gaston when you need him....he can 'belt' out this song with no problem.
Again 'kudos' for being honest on the issue but shouldn't he know it?
