Never mind Hanoy Jane (Fonda). Clinton did the same when studying in the U.K., and the country elected him president. This issue, had not even been brought up in the campaign.
Ditsy Chicks are doing the same. As if they wait to go abroad to unload their half-penny worth of wisdom. It does not matter what I think of their music: even if I loved it, I would never buy another CD of theirs for as long as I live.
But the pleasures are nowadays more important than principles for most people...
Good observation.
