This has nothing to do with the war. I am a proud American, but there are many of us who are extremely obnoxious. And Germans who come to the US are terrible dressers - sandals with black socks and shorts? Hey, nobody is perfect.
Hudson is a snob, but didn't say anything horrible. This is just an overreaction. The Dixie Chicks knocked Bush...come on...please - I think he's a decent president, but he clearly is not the brains of the operation. Listen to him speak, then listen to an articulate speaker like Tony Blair and see why some people might be "embarrassed" by Bush. It was certainly OK to knock Clinton - of whom I am no fan - for all those years without being un-American. Given the war and everything, it was a dumb thing to say, but again, this is such an overreaction.
God bless the brave troops who face grave danger every second of every day. Thanks to you all!
