CMA (Country Music) Awards Just Made Fun Of Obamacare In Their Opening Number.....

65. Agreed. I am finding it hard to get worked up about this.

As far as it being in poor taste, or apologies being owed, get a grip. It was actually pretty mild teasing; making fun of a government program. As far as I could see, they didn't get personal toward President Obama, or racist or really offensive, so I won't let this upset me. I do not and will not own any Brad Paisley or Carrie Underwood music. But neither do I own any Dixie Chicks stuff. But, that is simply because I am not a fan of what passes as "country" music these days. It pretty much degenerated into "pop lite" decades ago.
I am sure that many of my friends here on DU who are angry about this spoof were happy when one of the Dixie Chicks insulted President Bush. I suppose it depends on whose ox is being gored.
Making fun of politicians and their work is one of the rights we enjoy as Americans. Also, life is too short to spend it pissed off.
