Bombs a-bursting: A British record producer has done something that is inspiring outrage among true American patriots — he translated the “Star-Spangled Banner” into Spanish. The renamed “Nuestro Himno,” or “Our Hymn,” was produced by Adam Kidron, and debuts today, featuring artists such as Wyclef Jean, hip-hop star Pitbull and Puerto Rican singers Carlos Ponce and Olga Tanon.
The song will appear on an album, “Somos Americanos,” that will sell for $10, with $1 of each sale going to support the National Capital Immigration Coalition, a Washington group.
Excuse me, but far worse things have happened to our national anthem — like Whitney Houston’s version, for instance.

Somehow I would rather hear Whitney sing it badly than to hear it sung by illegals who won’t learn English.
Two words: Roseanne.
Whoa, Elizabeth. “Illegal” is not synonomous with “anyone who speaks Spanish.” Get a grip.
