The Super Bowl, Lady Gaga, and Politics

First off, I'm not a big sports fan.  Big surprise, right?  But I DID want to watch the game last night.  No, NOT just for the ads, but for the game. . . . . which was GREAT!!

Both teams played HARD, but I really think Atlanta was tired in the second half and that's what lost it for them.

Anyway......

Half-time!!  Lady Gaga ROCKED the house!  Did she do something "political"?  Well, if you consider singing parts of "God Bless America", "This Land Is Your Land", and reciting a part of the Pledge of Allegiance as "political", then yeah, I guess she did.  But she didn't do it in a mocking way, Nor was she slamming the Trump administration.  I felt her ENTIRE show was built on UNITY, which I think she was trying to accomplish.

Then, I read on FARTBOOK that people are shaming her appearance!!  And these people are the SAME people that would've JUMPED on her had she performed something politically negative.

I don't get it.

I guess the old saying "Damned if you do, damned if you don't" certainly applies here.

I APPLAUD her and her performance.  If you can't see the diversity in this country and ACCEPT it, maybe YOU should "get the hell out".
