Hillary made a comment about Queen Ann. And oh the outrage that followed!!!
She wasn't working for the Obama campaign when she said it - but she was labelled a very bad person.

Or maybe the Dixie Chicks would be a more similar situation.
True - Natalie Maines said what she did on 'foreign' soil - but what she said was NOTHING in comparison to this anti-American bullshit.
