I went to a concert in Seattle, about 18 months ago, Bumber Shoot or something. We saw Solomon Burke, the old Blues and Soul singer, among the myriad of acts that were there.

The next act was Macy Gray. She sang something forgettable, then went into a discussion honoring Che Guevara. I don't recall what she said, but her words were words of admiration and respect. We walked out at this point.

I just did a search on her lyrics, assuming that the talk on Che was an intro to a song, but found nothing.But based on my experience, I think it fair to assume that anyone who loves Che, would not support Bush.

BTW, Dennis Hopper is a hell of an actor, IMHO. Red Rock West being a favorite of mine for his performance.

No argument there. And I've always thought there was something screwy about Macy Gray--don't like here music anyway. But there's something odd about this story. The guest list doesn't jibe.

Hopper IS a great actor. If you doubt me, check out the scene in TRUE ROMANCE where he faces off with Christoper Walken--one of the greatest in movie history (unless you're Sicillian, that is). Hint--Hopper is the normal one.
