John Mellencamp shows some class in his comments about Sarah Palin. If only his fellow Leftists could exhibit the same decency.
From Big Hollywood: "I Don't Agree With Sarah Palin, But I Do Admire Her"
The legendary rocker says that while he doesn’t support [Sarah Palin's] positions, he is impressed by the mark she’s made on she country since the 2008 election.
Mellencamp says people get the wrong idea about her intellect “just because she says things and winks.”
He says she “knows exactly what’s she doing” and “she wouldn’t be where she is today if she didn’t.”
Mellencamp gives Palin credit for handling the rough world of politics. He says “she’s pushing the right buttons” and “you can’t be stupid and do that.”
Dear Celebrity Culture: Vote for whoever you want, advocate for whatever you want, and if you can remain gracious while doing so and not insult who we are and what we believe in, we can still love you.
Exactly.
There's no need to insult and smear and tear down.
When celebrities display that sort of ugliness, I want nothing to do with them. I don't want to hear their music or watch their movies or TV stuff.
Just show some civility, like Mellencamp does. Good for him.
It's too bad that the majority of Leftist celebrity elitists don't follow Mellencamp's example.
