Oh, Just Shut Up And Sing!

So, Linda Ronstadt got herself booed off the stage and kicked out of her hotel for injecting politics into her act. Must be more of that mean ol' "Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy".

When will these people ever learn that they're "hired" to entertain the audience, not deliver political tirades? Wasn't it Sam Goldwyn who said "This is show business; if you want to 'send a message', go to Western Union."? What makes them think anyone gives an airborne rodent's posterior what they think politically?

Free speech is not the same as cheap talk.

Well, if Ms Ronstadt is "uncomfortable" with Republicans and Christians in the audience, perhaps we should simply excuse ourselves from any more of her concerts. After all, we wouldn't want her to feel "uncomfortable", would we?
