“It amazes me that those who are so adamant about the public standing for the national anthem seem to ignore the Constitution and Washington's Farewell Address, the latter just after having it read as a ritual.”

True patriots celebrate today more than any other day
Did you know today is Constitution Day? On this day 222 years ago, 12 state delegations approved the Constitution of the United States.
Unfortunately more people give respect to the flag than the Constitution. Presidents of both parties have given speeches justifying their usurpation of power against a backdrop of flags.
For one site respecting the Constitution, see http://www.constitutionday.cc/.
