Pathetic argument. They wouldn't have *played* any other national
anthem than America's.

Yo! Wake up and smell the coffee! Sinead didn't criticize *anything*.
She didn't say anything, good or bad, about America. She just didn't
want our national anthem played before her concert. After all, she's
not American and the Star Spangled Banner has nothing whatsoever to do
with her music.

For that matter, playing the national anthem before a rock concert is
a pretty stupid idea anyway.

Moron.
