Stevie strongly feels that its best for her not to take that public view on politics . I think stevies was like, if you do it prepare yourself for your own personal war with the people you are about to offend.
Public displays of politics is not stevies goal in life . does that make her bad< NO. If the DC apologized cause of threats , as the above poster stated, then why would you knock stevie, for not wanting to get personally involved , with a subject that could cause her a negative backlash or personal safety. I respect her for choosing to keep politics out of her public career.

Nice spin, but that isn't what she said.
