I did not start this thread, a new member did and I guess one of the mods deleted the whole thing and now it is back with me as the starter after I started a new thread asking where the original went. If a mod would like to send me a PM and explain what is going on, I would appreciate it.
The mods here do what they want without explanation!
our anthem is beautiful and stirring however I found this man's reasons to be more about showing off his voice than his point of god in the lyrics. it just seemed disingenuous and more about opportunity to sing than content. for me I would have been more moved had he spoken the words.

meh. He should've busted out the 5th verse/stanza too. Wonder why he didn't....oh yes, right it was a Tea Party event...the 5th verse would never work in that crowd.
First, there is no fifth verse. Second you ask why the man sang it…Well the answer is in the video if you aren’t too biased to see it. The answer given by the speaker had at least something to do with the words “in God we Trust” and where that came from.
The gentleman who sang this fourth and last verse of the song likely was moved by the question as the words of the verse include the following:
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
Nahh… you liberals have it right, he is just some exhibitionist who likes to show off in front of crazies who love the wrong amerika.
Care to explain a man singing the National Anthem of the United States of America would fit in nicely in Nazi Germany?
Or is it simply you hate the USA?
See it works like this. To liberals, loving ones country is jingoistic. Liberals want to be citizens of the world. The notion of national patriotism to them is anathema. The Hitler uber-patriotism is a good analogy to Americans who love their God/Country and guns…
Why does anyone want to put this man down for singing what he believes in?
He is not a star! He is a normal American "joe" who sang the part of his national anthem that he likes the best.
Why so much hatred, very few can sing it this well.
WHY?
Because many many people on the left hate this type of display and the idea people love this country.
