Personally, I never use "moot" either in speech or writing. It's too confusing for people, in my experience. They end up "learning" the word and then later saying "it's a mute point."
Oh - and I am one of those people that was not happy with Wayne last year - and I generally am not happy with any musician cutting into music time by talking. That's what their songs are for - make a statement with the lyrics.
Plus - I guess I have issues with the fact that the majority of musicians nowadays do nothing but bash on Republicans but - in all truthfulness - there are just as many stupid Democrats as their are Republicans
