laurabush.jpg Ever wonder what President Bush and his wife, Laura Bush talk about? Well they sure as hell aren’t talking about their postition on Nuestro Himno? On Wednesday, the first lady was asked during a CNN interview what she thought about the Spanish language version of the The Star-Spangled Banner. Laura Bush said:

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with singing it in Spanish. What people want is it to be sung in a way that respects the United States and our culture.

She quickly changed her tune when it was pointed out that her answer was in direct conflict with her husband’s, who had stated that the U.S. national anthem should be sung in English.

Ooops…I’m sure she was appropriately reprimanded for having her own opinion.
