and I was horrified at the response. SNL is (was) a liberal comedy show and she got so much shit! Fuck the Pope. As a former Catholic, I feel perfectly justified in saying that given the churches' compliance and coverup of sexual abuse, particularly of children, over the years. It continues today.

Dixie Chicks got a raw deal, but c'mon, you can't compare a derogatory remark about Bush and Texas to the risk Sinead took. And the crimes of the pious Catholics.
