Ignorance is not bliss, it is Patti Smith. I wouldn’t be surprised in this day and oage of Obama, she still carries these thoughts. Sad, what a sad person.

Yes, you said this on iTunes, too. Yes, I know it’s the same person. You don’t really know what you’re talking about. Why not do a little research before spouting off, so you can learn that calling Patti Smith ignorant, or thinking that she’s a racist, makes you look like a fool?
