Thanks for the info...the dj on the country music station here in Wash DC was really incensed at her commentary. He did mention the Earl song and how truly ignorant "that" was. I had a difficult time finding the article they were refering to because the LA Daily news does not have a working search option. I played around with the URL and dates before I finally hit on it.
BTW>>>I'm not surprised they're big lefties...a friend of mine who is a teacher and lives in NC went to a thanksgiving dinner with a bunch of teachers, one of whom was the dad of two of the chicks(I'm assuming they're sisters). She described him as a grumpy old man....I just had no idea "who" the chicks were.
Sad fact of life is that creative arts folks tend to be more emotive and hence the vast majority of them flock to liberalism like moths to the flame.
That has been my experience with the many I've known barring a few exceptions.
