One of my favorite bloggers at the "What Would Tyler Durden Do?" site has been whacking Paltrow for her pretentious, air-headed anti-American statements for a long time. He took the occasion of this latest one to link to his comments on the three other times she's been "misconstrued" just this year. The most enlightening one is here (http://www.wwtdd.com/post.phtml?pk=132):

"A quick history: Gweneth Paltrow dropped out of UCSB as an art history major after less than one semester. She attended three different high schools, St. Augustine By The Sea in Los Angeles, the Spence School in New York City and Crossroads High School in Santa Monica.

Crossroads was described by Vanity Fair as “ a cradle of Limousine Liberalism … founded on radical, hippie principles … a sensitive hippie school filed with hot house flowers, coddled children of McGovern liberals - people given to overreaction.” Along with an annual cross-dressing day and the ménage-a-prom, where students purchase tickets in groups of three, Crossroads has a required class in grades 6 - 12 where a “talking stick” is passed and people share their innermost secrets with their classmates, who murmur “ho” to express their approval.

My point is Gwen is insane and hilariously ill-informed. She has no formal education, unless you count making ashtrays in pottery class or the Smiling Bear sticker she earned in Cultural Understanding. So when people like this want to lecture you on American history or political science, just keep in mind that they’re comparing it to a utopia where Unicorns fly over gumdrop rainbows so a centaur can brush their hair. Just like the village they saw while chasing 'shrooms with X that time in their Gulfstream."
