"Yes, but that doesn't obligate us, even politically obligate us, to invite them to perform".
The problem is with the word "us", as if we Christians who hate Kid Rock have a monopoly on the Republican party. You've been around long enough to know that ain't the case. In addition, many Christian republicans also like crummy rap or rock & roll. So relax. I'll crank on my Miles Davis CD and mute the TV if the Kid starts singing. on
I like Kid Rock, so sue me. He may be a little rough around the edges, but he loves our country. He won my heart when he deep fried a fresh killed turkey on Hank Jr's Christmas special last year. I'm sure his ex, PETA Pamela Anderson had a fit about that one.
And he really does care about our troops, and I'm pretty sure they like him.
As for his song lyrics, granted some have "wordy-dirds". However, who among us has not dropped the F bomb on occassion. Not proud of it, but I certainly have. And this is a party in honor of Jenna and Barbara, right? It they want him there, so be it.
People who live in glass houses.....:)
P.S. I consider myself a Christian. Just not a perfect one.
I used the term "us" imprecisely. What I meant was, the Bush people aren't obligated to invite them.
