Clearly no parts that you hear. I'm not interested in debating Stevie's political views. The song told me a great deal about Stevie's position and the largest point I took away from the duet had nothing to do with her being a soldier's mother or wife, visiting the troops, dispensing ipods, sympathy or compassion. I don't see it as neutral or non-committal. You do. We have a different opinion. There's no need for either of us to enlighten the other.
