Why is she? I don't know WHY she is.

She's cashing in on the popularity of using music to bash our country and our President like Green Day and Dave Matthews and even Barbara Striesand (yuck). They think that putting some inflammatory stuff in their songs and concerts will make certain people like them more, and I guess to an extent they're right. A lot of immature people who live on MTV bought the "Rock against the President" CDs.

If I actually liked her music and went to a concert, I'd be going to hear music, not to hear her whine about her country and get into politics. I can't stand when singers and actors feel they have to inject their political views into their work. Usually, they don't know what they're talking about, but even if they did...people aren't paying for tickets to seminars, they just want to hear music.

She's one of the people who inspired the line "just shut up and sing".

Yes, she DOES have freedom of speech to say whatever she wants, but I also have freedom of speech to tell her to shut up.

Anyways, her lyrics and behavior aside, she's still a nasty chick who couldn't make a CD without tons of re-mixxing and patching up on her voice.
