Gretchen Peters – The Nashville folk star was left flummoxed when Sarah Palin used her track 'Independence Day' – a song about a woman who suffered domestic abuse – as a campaign song. In response, Peters released a damning statement, saying: "The fact that the McCain-Palin campaign is using a song about an abused woman as a rallying cry for their vice presidential candidate, a woman who would ban abortion, even in cases of rape and incest, is beyond irony. They are co-opting the song, completely overlooking the context and message, and using it to promote a candidate who would set women's rights back decades.”

- Duh. They are all liberals. Oh course they aren't going to see the politically sensible candidates though misguided eyes.
- Agreed. That could really be a rhetorical question.
- all these celebrities have too much money anyways. they're so blinded by wealth and the fact that their fans will follow them loyally into whatever party they support. although their are those that know both sides of the story, i feel that most just jump on the band wagon of the democratic party because every other celebrity does the same.
- The blind leading the blind.
- I can see most of those on the list but the Foo Fighters have seemed to keep themselves above that. I guess even they have come under the spell of Obamaism. To bad.
