I am not quite sure why I teared up watching this… Something to do with music and performance as ART rather than just so much crap. A woman that not only has something GOOD to say, but knows how to play it to get her point across to the largest audience. A woman way smarter than most men. A woman who takes chances and usually comes out on top. An artist. And of course I respect her for giving the anual retentive morons a sharp poke in the eye.
This very same issue hit me hard after Amy Winehouse passed away and I saw all the comments "good riddance to bad rubbish","drug addict", "drunk" – that Republican ugliness in all it’s glory. Amy Winehouse was no Britney Spears, she was an artist who mixed a few genres of music into her own style as no one had done before, and voiced it in a new and wonderful way. An Artist.
But you know of course the three top enemies of Republicans? Artists and smart people. And whether it be the Tea Party, the Inquisition, The Gang of Four in China, the Taliban in Afghanistan or the clergy running Iran, they all have the same two sets of enemies time after time after time.
So please, when out in public act stupid. It works for me!
