Dave Grohl Gets Political

In the new issue of British GQ, which hits newsstands this week, Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl speaks about his time in Nirvana, missing Cobain, the evaporation of the American Dream and his thoughts on the current occupant of the White House.
The American Dream was still tangible, still desirable. Today, the American Dream is broken. I’ve probably travelled internationally more than our current president and the one thing I understand that he doesn’t is that the world isn’t as big as you think it is. It is all in your neighborhood. India, Asia, Iceland aren’t other solar systems. I am ashamed of our president. I feel apologetic for it when I travel." 
The Dixie Chicks feel your pain, Dave.

Grohl is not the most knowledgeable guy when it comes to politics and it's doubtful that even the people who share his politics are taking their cues from him but, rest assured, the same "shut up and play" hypocrites who will bash him for criticizing the POTUS are the same folks who fail to utter a peep when it comes to the likes of Kid Rock or Ted Nugent spewing their divisive and often racist garbage. But hey, the haters can go listen to Kanye West now, right? Oh, wait—wrong color. Um, nevermind.
