Sheryl Crow Bashes Sarah Palin: 'Someone Unplug Her Microphone!"
Newsbusters.org ^ | Alana Goodman

Pop-singer Sheryl Crow has always been outspoken about her own political views, but now she's telling former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin to zip it. "I saw you ranting on TV today, I heard you tell me to reload. You got a lot of nerve to talk that way, someone unplug the microphone," sings Crow in her new anthem, "Say What You Want," which was released in late July.

The angsty, politically-charged song makes plenty of references to "kool-aid drinking," "talking heads" and, of course, "ignorance."

"I'm tired of all the fighting, cynicism and back biting. Can't even hear myself think, you pour the kool-aid and then we drink," sings Crow of Palin.

The Grammy Award-winning songstress makes it clear what she thinks of conservative views, crooning sarcastically that "Ignorance is patriotic, reasons are so idiotic."

Crow also made an emotional appeal to the young and impressionable, urging them to steer clear of the "hatred" that has apparently been manufactured by "talking heads" and their "hate campaigns."

"All you little ones with open hearts, don't let hatred tear your world apart. And if you wonder who is wrong and who is right, better go ask God to shine some light," she sings.

Crow defended the song in an interview with The Sunday Times, saying that "[T]he morning that Sarah Palin came out and said 'reload', there was no way I wasn't going to write about that."

No wonder Lance Armstrong kicked her to the curb.

I imagine quite a few men have kicked her to the curb...

So..if I understand this...Obama is President...both houses of congress are controlled by Liberals...but the biggest villain in th world today is an ex Governor of Alaska with a personal opinion?

Wow, this single ply crazy woman has become completely insane. And her producer and label have decided to go off the cliff with her Thelma and Louise style.

How many of her audience even know who Palin is? Of them, how many actually give a sh*t?

I’ll bet she sells less than a hundred copies of this garbage.

Geesh, what a loon. And her enablers are even loonier. Do these people understand nothing about ‘profit’ and sex and fun.

Nobody is going to buy this doom and gloom crap to play at their birthday or pool party.

Leftism truly is a mental disorder.

I want Sarah to win just because I love seeing liberals’ heads explode, so at least it would have lots of entertainment value having her in the White House.

I’m amazed that someone who works behind a microphone like she does invites someone to unplug someone else’s?You’d think she’d realize that now the first thing I feel like doing is unplugging hers? Hey someone could offer a reward to the first person who can unplug Sheryl Crows mike!LOL

I would rather listen to Sarah Palin belch the alphabet than Sheryl Crow sing anything!

Another hysterical lefty unable to come up with a well-reasoned rebuttal, so she insists that Palin “shuts up”

That’s the left for you.

As long as they keep visualizing her as President I don’t care if it makes them sad. ;-)

"The Grammy Award-winning songstress

many of these celebrities make the mistake for thinking that FAME=GENIUS & Brilliance.

If they were a dimwit before their fame then they still are, only with more money.
