OTTAWA — Senators continue squabbling over a woebegone national anthem bill — what else is new? — with debate reaching new heights Tuesday as one leader made a rhyming statement in verse and a veteran senator deemed a notoriously blustery colleague “gentle” on the inside. It would replace the words “in all thy sons command” with “in all of us command,” thus making the anthem gender-neutral. Senators then decided to delay a vote on the sub-amendment by another day. (On a tangent, Plett mentioned his analysis of comments on a related Post story skewed heavily against changing the anthem lyrics.)
