I heard she provides material support to the Itty Bitty Titty Committee.

What does she think she's doing?

It's not as if locking up terrorist suspects for years without placing charges or providing a fair trial - thus providing a basis for both outside political support and recruitment of new terrorists - is still a live political issue these days.

*sigh*... I guess if a terrorist had a gun to my head, sure, I'd plow it. But I most certainly wouldn't enjoy it, nor would I ask for a second helping.

Excuse me, I need to reach for something under my desk...

FTFA:

"She should clarify her position so that her fans and the wider public knows where she stands on these things."


Ya, i don't really think that fans care. I'm pretty sure that her singing about the IRA in the '70's is pretty much the same as artists now writing about the movements in the '60's. It's not pro or con, it's freaking historical. Calm down Nanny State.

Why do they hate freedom fighters?

I once stayed up late to watch the musical act on one of the late shows, cause when they threw the name up I was drunk and thought it said Dio. Turns out I was wrong.

I thought the headline said Dio. Then I remembered Dio would never support terrorism. He'd kick it's ass with his Sword of Gallantry while riding an awesome dragon.

I thought this was a story about Kidd Rock, then I realized it said Dido not....nevermind....

Nothing like someone trying to drum up a little publicity for an
album that's gonna tank.

I wouldst most happily strike that female.

Okay, full disclosure time:

I really enjoyed No Angel, thought it was one of the albums of the year for 1999. Her follow-up Life for Rent, was just good, but in that typical, sophomore slump kinda way.

Anyway I'm gonna pick this one up too (eventually) just to give her a listen and see where this album lands.
