Streisand: Why Can't She Stay In "Retirement"?

Actress, singer and foreign policy expert Barbra Streisand sure has a weird idea of retirement. First she stars in last winter's comedy Meet the Fockers, and now she has an upcoming album with Bee Gees alum Barry Gibb.

One of the songs she warbles is entitled Stranger in a Strange Land, and has to do with the wasted efforts of soldiers currently in Iraq:

You may be someone else's sweetheart/Fighting someone else's war,/And if you suffer for the millions/Then it's what you're fighting for.

I have to say I agree with that. After all, soldiers who suffer in order to keep "Truth Alert" Streisand and her ilk comfy and cosy in their leftist cocoons are unfortunate indeed. There's nothing like putting your life on the line for people who denigrate your efforts!
