And I enjoyed Lady Gaga's performance and thought it was pleasantly non controversial.
It obviously went over your head!
Read the newspaper. They will explain the controversy for you and others. Sad face.

ETA - Moreover if jobs are duplicated, get rid of them.
Except, thats not what is happening. It is a new administration. Political appointees are replaced , but the lower level people under them are "let go". Their replacements are usually hired by the political successors, but they wont be this time around.

I fully expect Nancy Pelosi to personally accuse her of being a white supremacist.

Who knew this land belonged to any third worlder who just shows up uninvited?

Never crossed my mind that song was all about a borderless world.

Thanks liberals.

I thought it was a great halftime show, and also a great game! Why does everything have to be analyzed? You people reading into the "meaning" of what the Lady sang have too much time on your hands. Relax!

The political right probably wanted Gaga to get political so that they could rant about the liberal entertainment industry again. She smartly didn't provide them with that opportunity.
