Jose Can You See?

Hip-Hop artist Pitbull, whose real name is Armando Perez, has decided to rewrite the US National Anthem in Spanish. His Spanish version will contain “most” of the original words and the intent of the song is to show America that immigrants matter. According to Pitbull, this country was built by immigrants. He right about that however, they were here legally. The problem with this movement is that the people who are supporting it are deliberately deceiving the American public. The issue to real Americans is ILLEGAL immigration. There was a time when immigrants came here and they were checked to ensure they had the proper vaccinations and that they were not carrying a disease that could kill millions of people. Now we let them walk in the back door and have no idea what they could be brining in with them.

This whole idea of a Spanish version of the National Anthem is a marketing ploy by Pitbull to make money. If half the immigrants in this country bought it at $10 a pop he would make a fortune. I look at this as a tasteless defamation of an American historical document. The Star Spangled Banner was written by Francis Scott Key in the Baltimore Harbor. I am sure during that time no Mexicans were running around getting shot at and the standard language of our country was English! Rewriting the National Anthem is just another erosion of this society in which every thing is translated into Spanish. If you buy an appliance the instruction book is 3 inches thick because of the translations. Small appliances have 50 tags on them warning you in every language that using a hair dryer in the shower can get you killed.

Top this off with the phone messages that indicate “for Spanish press 1” and the ATM machines that ask “English/Espanol?” and you have the erosion of a national identity. All countries are identified by their tradition and anthems are part of the symbolism that gives a country its identity. To rewrite it in another language is a slap in the face to the men and women who died to keep that flag flying in countless conflicts. Pitbull will add insult to injury by releasing a remix with anti-American lyrics in the song. Here is an example of the filth he will add:

“These kids have no parents, cause all of these mean laws … let’s not start a war with all these hard workers, they can’t help where they were born.”

I wrote earlier that protesting and trying to shut down cities is not a way to endear the LEGAL occupants of a country. Rewriting their anthem will not make it any better. The next thing you know these people will want it sung in both languages at ballgames. If it ever gets that far then the American citizens can start the boycotts. If you want to see a boycott that really works, wait until the people with the money boycott ballgames and other services.

Let me take a stab at rewriting the first verse in English to something that the ILLEGALS might understand:

Jose can you see? By the jail cell’s dim light.
You were so justly jailed for illegal entry
With your kids, dogs, and wife, you took a perilous flight
O’er the desert you walked, while you sneaked in so gently
Though the Minuteman’s hard stare, made the crossings more rare
You sneaked through in the night, then you stole our health care
Jose does your protester’s banner yet wave
Till we throw your ass out, and our country we save.
…Big Dog

Feel free to pass that around if you’d like.
