LONDON (AFP) - US pop star Madonna made a rare foray into politics, calling for her home country to withdraw its troops from Iraq during an interview with British radio."I just don't want American troops to be in Iraq, period," she said on BBC Radio.
"My feelings are 'can we just all get out?'," said the 46-year-old star, who lives mainly in London with British film director husband Guy Ritchie, who said she believes the US-led war will not help in the fight against terrorism.

In a similar fashion, Bert called for Madonna to never come home again saying that expatriate traitors are a disgrace to America and unworthy of citizenship..

What a POS! Her album sales must be down since her movies are crap. Ala Streisand, a broad whose IQ rests 3 feet below her neck.

OMG! Has she told Bush about this yet?!?!?
"Mr. President, there's an old mediocre singer with an inexplicable British accent and an exposed vagina on line 2 with news about Iraq!"
"Put her through! Put her through!"

"I thought very carefully about it. I thought Wesley Clark had the best leadership qualities," she said. "If he had the same political experience as Kerry he could have bridged that gap."
Thank you Bush for not listening to this tripe from a real moron in world affairs.

Funny, during the 80s, Madonna was not calling for all the troops to pull out of her.

"I just don't want American troops to be in Iraq, period," she said on BBC Radio. Go to Fajullah and stand in front of a tank battalion, with a Spectre flying overhead and scream it at the top of your lungs Missy!

She'd be best served tending to getting her STD shots and leaving the Foreign policy to the big boys.
She what happens when your spouse (Sean Penn) puts your head in an oven one too many times?

Give Madge a break - she is only sympathizing with other women who have elected to keep the hair under her arms.
