"Who is making the decisions to have this kind of crap at a Christmas concert? The Dixie chics were cited as being un-American in 2003 and their
careers were over...this guy was un-American and sang about killing our
troops and performs for the President of the United States. If it is anti-American, the community organizer will be there. A man is judged by the company he keeps". MC
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama will attend a charity concert
where PSY is scheduled to perform after reports that the South Korean
rapper participated in anti-American protests several years ago.
A spokesman says Friday that the Obama family will attend the Dec. 21 Christmas in Washington concert, as is custom.
News reports cite two instances
of the 34-year-old "Gangnam Style" rapper participating in concerts
protesting the U.S. military presence in South Korea during the early
stages of the war in Iraq. In a 2004 concert, PSY performs another act's
song about killing "Yankees" who have been torturing Iraqi captives and
their families "slowly and painfully."
PSY's inescapable hit went viral
in the U.S. and holds the YouTube record for most watched video. A
message left with his spokeswoman was not immediately returned.
