It’s so interesting how transparent certain celebrities reveal themselves to be. The exact same Sheryl Crow who was wearing the “I don’t believe in your war Mr. Bush” t-shirt, was belting out tunes to troops in Bosnia back in the 90’s. She was wearing no such t-shirt then. Oh, but that’s right, there was a different president then.Sheryl Crow, the well-known anti-war protester who inherited that mantle from Joan Baez, a well-known communist sympathizer, went with Hillary Clinton to Bosnia around the holidays to ostensibly support the troops. Unlike at the Grammys on Monday night, the words “no war” were not on her guitar band back then. In fact, Newsmax reported that she told USA Today in April of 1996, "Once over there I felt extremely patriotic."
What changed Sheryl? Oh, that’s right, there was a different president then. In the same interview she also said, "Here are these people, from 18-year-olds to military veterans, enduring real duress for the cause of peace." The singer then gushed, "I don't ever want to play for a regular audience again, only military folks who are starving for music." She even did a special on VH1 titled: Sheryl Crow: A Postcard from Bosnia.
That Was Then, This is Now
I'll guarantee you that if the Bush administration asked her to go entertain the troops in Iraq, she wouldn't go. What’s changed Sheryl? Where is your support and feelings of patriotism now? What happened to only wanting to perform for military folks? What was that little ditty you did at the Grammys? Oh, that’s right, there’s a new president now.All of these people are just a bunch of thoroughbred hypocrites, and don't give me they were peacekeepers in Bosnia business, they were troops, armed military carrying weapons. That's all that matters.
