Jackass Paul McCartney

I'm not afraid to say it. I've been a McCartney fan for a long, long time, although I've always thought his work with the Beatles far surpassed his work with Wings. I have to say his behavior at the White House was abominable. Alright, fine, sing "Michelle" to the First Lady of the United States, even though it appeared to be cheeky to me. But to dis our former President, as if he had the right to stand in our White House and say something absolutely reprehensible about ANY of our former presidents is absolutely one of the rudest things ever witnessed in politics. Imagine if one of our musicians, say Ted Nugent, went over to England to accept being knighted and he said something comparable. It would be an incident internationally. What gives people from other countries the right to say terrible things about our leaders IN OUR WHITE HOUSE? Say what you want in your own country, dude, about anybody, but STAY THE HELL OUT OF OUR WHITE HOUSE. That the Obama crew laughed uproariously over this says much about them. Ditto on the White House, jerks.

Can anyone tell me why people are such schmucks? Why they are so graceless and clueless and nasty? I mean, Paul McCartney’s like the richest, most popular, most honored musician in the world. Does he not have it in him to behave like a gentleman — or at least a non-boor — while he’s being celebrated at the White House? Does he have to be the Wanda Sykes of popular music? Is it not possible to love Obama, as McCartney does, without hating Bush — or at least insulting him on a high, non-political occasion?
