Yeah, I figured that you were angry at the maybe faux radical actions of some of the celebs. I came to the conclusion a few years ago that even if I personally disliked some of the people who are aligned with my positions, celebs or otherwise, I can still kind of like them for what they are doing, or trying to do. Thus, I even have some affection and respect for Jon Bon Jovi....
