Dear Mr. President

Why is it that celebrities think that they have a responsibility to make their political opinions publicly known? The real problem is the idiots in the public that validate the celebrity's opinion. In this particular case I am talking about Pink and her song "Dear Mr. President. Whether you have heard it or not, I suggest you check out one of her live performances on youtube. It literally made me sick. The words she was singing were so wrong and uninformed. She is either really confused, or really stupid. She blames President Bush for the homeless and the hungry and the ban on homosexual marriage. It is just so frustrating that people attack his integrity when he has nothing to do with anything that they're mad about. Nobody seems to know how this government works. People need to keep in mind that it is a checks and balances system and that the President only has a third of the power. Congress really has the most power and they are overwhelmingly liberal. The judicial branch holds the other third of the power and the supreme court is a liberal majority as well. All Bush does is pass the bills that the LIBERAL congress puts on his desk. yeah he vetos stuff but he doesn't make the decisions himself. Pink talks about him like he's literally the devil. I don't know if she remembers but the entire country with a couple exceptions voted homosexual marriage unconstitutional. the president is entitled to his own opinions just like everyone else. Obama doesn't plan on legalizing gay marriage. Clinton never even brought it up. Nobody talks about that. Nobody wrote songs to Clinton saying he made a mockery of the highest position in the country. Nobody wrote protest songs about the war Clinton got the US into.
The bottom line is that people need to shut up if they don't know what they're talking about. especially celebrities who think their opinions are more important than anyone elses. It's like every celebrity that picks up a guitar thinks that they're Bob Dylan or John Lennon. I dont care if you dont like what the Bush administration has done or if you're a democrat or what but dont make it a personal attack against George Bush. Politics are more complicated than that but I guess you can't expect an idiot like Pink to understand that. Go back to being a rich snob in hollywood and stay out of Washington you self-righteous hypocrite. You dont live paycheck to paycheck. you have never lived in a cardboard box. you dont go to sleep hungry. If i were bush i wouldnt want to take a walk with you either you ignoramus. If you want freedom and love and peace like you so valiantly preach than how about starting with not insulting people with morals. Just because you dont have any yourself doesnt mean you need to bash someone who does. If you're so concerned about the homeless and the hungry than why not give all your money to those who need it more than you! you hypocrite! you selfish vermin! How do you sleep at night knowing you have so much and give so little? how do you sleep at night knowing that while you curl up in one of your mansions, some child is dying while you live in luxury? You contribute nothing to society you worthless harpy. although politicians are known to be corrupt, at least they make some kind of positive difference in society. Any dirty lie that has ever passed through any politician's mouth is nothing compared to the garbage spewing from yours. You are a disease that spreads through the population of ignorant people, zombies, so easily corrupt by the media. A population that gets their political views from saturday night live and the daily show(quality programs but you still need to have a mind of your own!). This disease is slowly infecting my country, brainwashing the weak-minded. all i can do now, Pink, is pray to my Christian God that your warped, hypocritical idealism isn't the death of my once great country. People used to be proud to be Americans. I still am. The reason you arent being arrested for slandering the President is because our country was founded on religious ideals that allow you to do so. I suggest you not take advantage of that freedom.
Today's lesson: Shut up Pink. and... I rant when i'm frustrated.
