The president of the United States does realize he is the president of the United States, right? If he does he should know perfectly well that you can't make an admitted "cheap shot" at a leading member of the national press and then say I take it back and expect the cheap shot to disappear, right? Once the president puts something out there, it's out there.
And speaking of needless pettiness - what's with all the opposition to singing a Spanish-language version of the national anthem? It's not like the Lord's Prayer is no longer the Lord's Prayer when it's said in Spanish. What exactly is there about Francis Scott Key's words that demand they be sung in English?
