More on Madonna

Give me a break! Madonna implies that if she had grown up with a mother, she would have learned manners. I’m willing to bet all the profits from “Truth or Dare” that even if Madonna had grown up with a mother she’d still be just as rude and disrespectful as she is today.

Madonna is a selfish, self-centered, insincere tease who not only degrades women but couldn’t care less about her fans.

In 1984 I was a sound technician at one of her stops on the “Like a Virgin” tour. Madonna was more concerned about her wardrobe than her sound check. She lip-synced four prerecorded tracks and after the show blew out of the building, leaving the backstage party behind.

When will America wake up? This woman belongs in the same category as Ronald Reagan--a manipulator who uses the media to the fullest extent to exploit an adoring public and create a transparent persona that leaves one with an empty feeling inside.
