Nothing. I almost doubt he even has any knowledge of this debacle, to be honest, which sort of makes me skeptical as to whether Roseanne hit one or two pipes of K2 earlier.
Back in 2008, after President Obama's inauguration aired, Etta voiced a concern over Beyoncé performing "At Last" ("singing my song"), when she was well and able to sing it herself, I presume. She also made a few remarks aimed at Obama ("that big-eared president of yours"; "he ain't my president"), then it abruptly turned to politics. Etta detracted a few days later and issued an apology afterwards. Neither Obama or Beyoncé made any sort of response, or even an indication that they were even aware of what was said.
There was never any explanation as to why the comments were made. Though, her son attributed the comments to a case of "drug-induced dementia".
In a nutshell.
