Nuestro Himno, Contd.
The WH Press corps had a field day with President Bush's strident words over nuestro himno.
Q Scott, I wonder -- on Friday, the President firmly said he believes the National Anthem should be sung in English. Kevin Phillips, the Republican analyst, wrote a book called American Dynasty, and in there he claims that during the President's 2000 campaign, he did sing the Star Spangled Banner in Spanish at some Hispanic festivals, various campaign events. Are you aware, do you recall that from the 2000 campaign?
MR. McCLELLAN: No, I don't.
Q Do you think that that would be counter to what the President laid out on Friday?
MR. McCLELLAN: I don't recall that, and I'm not going to try to speculate on something I haven't looked into.
