When ignorance borders cute

This is Sheryl Crow, as quoted by WSJ's Best of the Web:
Ms. Crow has appeared on network television wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with "I DON'T BELIEVE IN YOUR WAR, MR. BUSH!" While her views are at least clear, an Associated Press reporter who profiled her in 2003 found her reasoning a little, well, simplistic. "War is based in greed and there are huge karmic retributions that will follow," she explained. "I think war is never the answer to solving any problems. The best way to solve problems is not to have enemies."

Normally when an entertainer utters liberal buffoonery--sorry, I repeat myself--I get irritated and begin avoiding his or her work. But in this case, I already somewhat avoid Sheryl Crow's music as it is, and I can't help but be tickled by the charming innocence of such a statement coming from an adult. It's just hard to gin up any irritation at this. All there is to do is smile, pat her on the head and hope that eventually she will grow up.
