Perhaps you’ve heard of Madison Rising – you know, the conservative, rock group that regularly touts patriotic lyrics, while also churning out entertaining and musically-stellar tunes. In June, the band, which embraces conservative values, ran a successful effort called the “One Million Star-Spangled Banner Challenge.” The goal? To convince 1 million people to watch the music video for the group’s rock version of “The Star-Spangled Banner” by Nov. 6 (election day).
The response, though, was so fierce that the band reached its goal seven weeks early, transcending the one million view marker two months ago. And in a fascinating bit of irony, in addition to hitting the benchmark early, Madison Rising surpassed its goal on September 14 — the 198th anniversary of the date Francis Scott Key wrote the original poem.

Call me uninformed, but can you please point out the "liberal attacks on the star spangled banner"?

Click where it says "One Million Star-Spangled Banner Challenge". Then click "Press and Tosh". That is the liberal attack they are talking about.
