So...the Dixie Chicks merely say they are ashamed to be from
the same state as B**h and they receive death threats and are vilified in the media.

But a sitting Senator (DeMint) compares President Obama to Hitler and that's OK?

Limbaugh hopes he fails? People call him a socialist (well actually they say "I'm not sure if he's a socialist") and that's cool?

What am I missing here?

6. Songwriters/artists ARE more dangerous than politicians and talking heads--
Edited on Thu Jul-09-09 10:53 AM by Mrs. Overall
They are always the first to be squelched and hard because of their influence. Nazi Germany took out the artists/entertainers first.

I can see how some powerful figures would fear the Dixie Chicks more than a senator.

7. You're only missing here all of the much-worse things that the nutcases say in private.
That's where the real sedition is fomented.

8. The huge letter "H" that all Republicans wear.
They are H Y P O C R I T E S--big time!

What is good for them is NOT good for everyone else. They can do things that are acceptable to them, only to be offended or outraged when someone else does the exact same thing.

They aren't bright enough to see the errors in their thought process.

10. They (Natalie) never dissed TX, she was ashamed of Bush being from TX.
The fact that he was born (hatched?) and raised in the NE was never brought up in the M$M, corporate funded firestorm that followed.

Not dissing, just clarifying - The Chicks are home-girls to the bone.
