I've seen a couple white girls coming to my concerts wearing head wraps, and I think they look so cute.

The message is pretty clear: Americans are sick and tired of the doubletalk coming out of Washington, of us going home and saying we're conservative and then coming up here and voting for 10,000 earmarks.
