Folks paid up to $1,200/ticket to see and hear Barbra Streisand sing.
Unfortunately they also had to sit through a skit making fun of GW
Bush.

Shut up and sing Barbra........no one cares about your political
views.

Link to boating (using Chuck's MO): Folks listen to music on their
boat, including Streisand songs. ;-)






Most of Streisand's fans know how political she is, and that politics
is part and parcel of her life, and that includes her professional
life.

I suspect just about everyone in audience enjoyed the skit poking fun
at Bush.

Hmmm..........so conservatives do not enjoy her music?

When you purchase a ticket for a movie, concert or any event not
advertised as a political event you do not expect to have to listen to
the political views of the artist/performer. Streisand is a political
pimp who has no concern about her fans.


I have no idea whether Streisand has conservative fans. If I were
attending one of her concerts, I would expect to hear some of her
political commentary.


Why?

I thought you paid to hear her sing?



And why would anyone care what *she* thinks?


Obviously you do, or this thread would have died some time ago.


Read this slowly James.........I don't care what she *thinks*. I do care
about her imposing her political views during her concert that folks paid to
hear her *sing*.

Got it?


I'll damned well bet that if a pro-Bush singer said some things about
Bush at a concert, you'd have no trouble with that, even if you were
there, Here is a case where you weren't even there, and are crying like
a baby....
