Apparently, this caused the Factory crowd to gain more respect for her, as they concluded she was a tough fuck-this chick. Anyway, that shows you she always had a bit of a conservative streak... but from there to regurgitate Fox News horseshit about Obama's "socialism", yes, that's disgusting.

Having said all that, I still think she was a true artist, from her groundbreaking, endlessly imitated drumming to her lo-fi home-made recordings that capture the essence of Brill Building music's beauty (no small feat) to all-out freakout with Sonic Youth, so I stand by what I said on my previous post: BUY IT.

I was referring to all the crap she puts on her FB. The Teabagger stuff was mild in comparison.
