Dixie Chicks: "I don't see why people care about patriotism."
UK Telegraph ^ | 6/15/06

Posted on 06/15/2006 9:57:39 AM PDT by beansox

"A lot of pandering started going on, and you'd see soldiers and the American flag in every video. It became a sickening display of ultra-patriotism."

"The entire country may disagree with me, but I don't understand the necessity for patriotism," Maines resumes, through gritted teeth. "Why do you have to be a patriot? About what? This land is our land? Why? You can like where you live and like your life, but as for loving the whole country… I don't see why people care about patriotism."

It must be weird having a 12 year old hippy's brain in a 32 year old country singer's rapidly expanding body.

Kind of makes you want to go out and get a "Mean People Suck" tattoo on your ankle.

Then why was she ashamed that President Bush came from Texas??? Isn't that some sort of Texas patriotism on her part?!?!?!

Good L-rd. She's puffy and fat and stuff.

I don't understand the necessity for patriotism," Maines resumes

Of course you don't. Thusly, we are repulsed by you.

"The entire country may disagree with me, but I don't understand the necessity for patriotism," Maines resumes, through gritted teeth.

Somehow I don't think she'd be saying this if those concert tickets were selling. But it's interesting how she says this crap in other countries which look down on that very patriotism. She seems like someone who wants desperately to be loved, and she's obviously not getting that love from the fans who made her a star, so she's seeking it elsewhere.

"There can be no rational explanation of how Maines's remark came to drive a red-hot poker into America's divided soul, but it's only now that some of the poison has begun to dissipate."

Obvioulsy, this writer is mis-informed.

The stupid heifer surely doesn't "get it", and likely never will.

Another shining example of liberalism in its self-centered glory.

Hey,Ditzy...read a little bit of what Churchill had to say and get back to us.The fact that his writings are in English might make this a daunting task for you,however.

Just sour grapes because none of the patriots want to go see their stupid concerts. Wait til she finds out all the lefties fawning over her NOW will drop her like a hot potato once her usefulness as a Bush-basher is over.

This just in from Drudge:

Because of declining CD sales and canceling of concerts, the Dixie Hicks will be changing their performance schedule.

Please note this latest change for your calendars:

Her remarks are ridiculous, but that's an old picture of her. She definitely slimmed down for this tour, in case anyone sees her....

If the Dixie Chicks sang protest songs or were a Punk Rock act like the Sex Pistols, I could see this attitude.

With her obvious lack of information on who Country Music lovers are and what they believe, why does she continue to try to ply her trade?

This b*tch is really stuck on stupid. Their first release since Mains' fisrt debacle in 2003 has started selling well and finally getting some airplay on country radio and now this. She's really an immature idiot who doesn't deserve the American public's forgiveness. I hope she's nailed to the wall for this stupid, selfish and immature comment

This group is destined to go no where regardless of what music they put out. For one main reason:

1. They're whole act now is predicated on hate.

More from the author, who would likely never pen the words, shiftless ni66!rs or money-grubbing k!*3s. Redneck, though, enjoys a special place in the perjorative vernacular.

It's called RESPECT you Idiot, Maines. Respect for the lives of people who DIED for your freedom. It is RESPECT for those who risked EVERYTHING in their lives, their homes, families, their own personal wealth, their heads in standing up to England, so that YOU could 200+years later stand up and denigrate it. You have your freedom Maines, because others died for it. You can spout your idiocy, PANDERING to all those who hate America, because other men and women shed their blood for it.

All I see you standing up for is hatred, and "gimmee more money please". You are a greedy wench with no respect. It must be HORRIBLE to be on the wrong side of history, you will not be remembered 100 years from now. George W. Bush and the freedoms he stood up for and defended WILL be remembered.

I see your point, however, I personally think she's merely following the money.

"I think for longevity's sake, our music had to mature and we had to mature as people," says Maguire. "Not that this particular event had to happen, but it sped up the process for us and helped us make a record that's really meaningful to us, whether or not other people see that."

Maguire must require a real long longevity, because her maturing is taking forever.
