David Crosby Said What?

The job of American soldiers in Iraq is to kill "mothers and sisters." He wrote that line for a protest song 35 years ago, got high and forgot about it, impregnated Melissa Etheridge, forgot about it again for a while, and decided to break it out here.

Classic, classless Hollyweird. (Caveat: My friend Derek actually clipped this for me and sent it along, so I'm not sure if there's context here that would mitigate Crosby's statement. I can't see how there would be, but wanted to throw that out there.)
