Sometimes performance transcends politics. In spite of some of his awful views, he also provided some useful insights into the human conditions.

To some extent, I can understand the point you're making and I'll confess to an inconsistency on my part. In spite of my affinity for Southern Gospel, I do also like some of the secular genre, notably old time, traditonal country music from performers such as Roy Acuff, Kitty Wells and Bill Grammer. Yet the latter performed in support of DemonRATs. In fact it was Grammer and his "Travel On" band that were on stage when DemonRAT George Wallace was shot by one of his fellow leftists in 1972. Another of my favorites was Minnie Pearl. In spite of her wholesome, good clean humor, she too was associated with the liberal Wallace when he ran for Alabama governor. So, admittedly, some of the performers that I like are flawed but, AFAIK, none of them were abortionists or homosexualists.

So yes, FRiend, I can see "where you're coming from" to borrow a term used by hippies. :)
