Martina McBride has pulled out of the America 250 celebration set for the Washington Mall. She claims it’s because of politics. 

I wish I could tell you that I’m surprised by McBride’s cowardice, but I’m not.  When it comes to modern-day entertainers, courage is hard to come by. But I am troubled by her lack of patriotism. 

Martina McBride had a chance to be a part of a diverse soundtrack to celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday. Instead, she chose to be a partisan rather than a patriot.
