Nikki Haley Misfires Her Fury

By Sniffles

We cats have been madly tweeting for the last two days, asking why in hell America's ambassador to the UN has time to watch and tweet about the Grammy awards. The last we checked, there was a lot of horrible crap going on in the world — and when you're in a Cabinet-level position like hers, there's no such thing as a lazy Sunday night.

Nobody really answered our question. But then once we calmed down a little, we realized that Haley's tweet was also incredibly stupid. Which got us all cranked up again.

"Don't ruin great music with trash," Haley whined after griping (at Donald's behest, no doubt) about the Grammys' amusing Fire and Fury video. "Some of us love music without the politics thrown in it."

Um, no politics?

Do we really have a UN ambassador who's so dumb she doesn't know about songs like "Strange Fruit" and "This Land Is Your Land"? Howzabout "Brother, Can You Spare A Dime?" Is she not familiar with John Lennon's "Working Class Hero" or Crosby, Stills & Nash's "Ohio"? Bob Dylan? Joan Baez? Paul Simon's "American Tune"? Or even Neil Diamond's "They're Coming to America"? The list goes on and on.

Our point being, of course, that music has always been about politics.

Note to Nikki Haley: If you don't want politics in music, Ambassador, you'd better stick to children's songs. Check out "Itsy-Bitsy Spider" and "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" — they're about your speed. Oh, and get back to work, you lazy slob. We cats HISS.
