It was an honor to be asked to sing at the event. Then she dishonored everything, including herself, her race, and her song. She proved herself to be dishonest and untrustworthy, reinforcing accurate steriotypes of her race. Dr. King said "judge by the content of their character". Her character is terrible, Dr. King would be ashamed of her.

Oh I can see the shorts in a twist all over suburbia. Imagine! Someone singing a different song, not our national fight song!! The nerve! Freedom of speech being exercised in america!! No, we absolutely should not stand for it!!! Why, she should be thrown in jail along with all who don't love america enough. We should round up anyone who has the nerve to dissent and ship them off to camps.(and plus the camps would create jobs!) Absolutely. They are an imminent threat to good ameerican values and this should not be tolerated! All illegal immigrants too- then honest, hard working americans can pick their own vegetables for no money. God forbid anyone should step out of line. These deviants need to be stopped! People fought and died for our freedom and this is how she repays them? Through expressing herself freely!? Oh! The unmitigated gall! If you listen to the song, the words are about faith and victory, the kind of thing middle america loves and values, right? The nerve of that woman. I'm incensed.

If you have it so bad here then leave. You can always go back the "Mother Continent" where I'm sure you could have done much better for yourself with all the opportunities The Great Homeland offers. Hmm...I wonder what Robert Mugabes' reaction would have been had she tried that stunt there. Disappointment is not one that comes to mind.

i used to live in denver and i'm not surprised. that lady is such an egomaniac and well known pain in the a##. if somebody hires you to sing a song, that's the song you sing. you can make your radical "statements" on your own dime.

Freedom of speech indeed! The reaction of those in Denver was that of disappointment. In Zimbabwe she would have been shot. The United States is far from perfect but we try and we learn and we improve. It's folks like you that are all mouth, touting your freedoms and rights but not having the courage nor the honor to wear the uniform to defend your freedoms. No, you leave that to others that I'm sure you look down upon with disdain. Happy Birthday, America!

At the end of the day, a person is only as good as their word. If their word is no good, if they’re a liar, well then…
The woman agreed to one thing yet knew she was lying when she agreed. Her excuse for lying is she’s an oppressed poor black girl living in evil America. Hmmm, Perhaps she’s lying about that too?

She was asked to sing the national anthem, she agreed to sing the national anthem, she should have sung the national anthem. Instead, she hijacked the event for her personal agenda.
If she's determined to make some point, she should make it on her own time and her own dime.

Apparently reading comprehension is not your strong suit. From the article: "We only have one national anthem," Obama told the Rocky Mountain News on Thursday. "And so, if she was asked to sing the national anthem, she should have sung that.'Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing' is a beautiful song, but we only have one national anthem."

This is exactly what Obama is trying to do run as a moderate and rule as a Socialist, the old "swithcherooni".

And apparently, you missed the television version, where he made the "sung in black churches for years" remarks. Sometimes you can't believe everything from the newspapers that, pick and choose what they want the readers to know, when they're ALL in Obama's corner.
