Linda Ronstadt on President Bush (from Wiki):

In 2006 she was quoted as saying "The Dixie Chicks said they were embarrassed he was from Texas. I'm embarrassed George Bush is from this planet. He's an idiot and a disgrace, what a dummy. He's enormously incompetent on both the domestic and international scenes." And, defending herself further: "Was it wrong for people like Peter, Paul and Mary or Joan Baez to speak out against racism? I think they educated a lot of people about something that was terribly unfair. Now the fact that we were lied to about the reasons for entering into war against Iraq and thousands of people have died - it's just as immoral as racism."

And that's exactly what he'll be written down as. Unless, of course, America won't allow it. Is it tru that some of your media (international) is censored?

Mebbe we should move this convo into the Got Something to Say thread... :sweat:
