I find it strange? Is it just me?

Why is she doing this?? I don't know about you but if were an injured soldier returning from the war in Iraq I would MUCH rather have a visit by Stevie Nicks than a random psychiatrist. I'm sure they have plenty of those on hand anyway. I'm really shocked at your take on it because I truly believe in the healing power of music and especially when you have a kindred soul such as Stevie whom I'm sure many of these people admire. The fact that someone with all her fame, success, and money has taken time out to visit them and spend quality time listening to their stories is very honorable IMO. If I were down, depressed, and physically in bad shape a visit from Stevie Nicks would sure as heck lift my spirits!
I could care less on her opinion of the war to be honest. She is not obligated in any way to share that with us. What she is doing by visiting the soldiers is of such importance and great honor and a true gift to them IMO and that is much more important than her political opinions are to me.
