The singer said he admires Ellen for 'standing up and saying what she said.'
."George Bush has made a lot of mistakes. I made a lot of mistakes. Ellen DeGeneres has made a lot of mistakes."
The iconic singer continued,"People need to come together [...] They need to respect people's view on life. Except when it's heresy, and I don't think George Bush is that kind of guy."Meanwhile, other celebrities have made it clear that they don't agree with DeGeneres's sentiments. Actor Mark Ruffalo tweeted,"Sorry, until George W. Bush is brought to justice for the crimes of the Iraq War, , we can't even begin to talk about kindness.
Since posting the video response to the controversy via Twitter, Ellen has yet to make any further statements regarding the matter.
