Actress Emily Blunt Just “Dixie Chicked” Herself With Comments On Citizenship
BuzzPo ^ | Sep 15, 2015 | Mark Clifton

On Tuesday’s edition of “Fox and Friends” the News crew showcased actress Emily Blunts comments on her new American citizenship that have gone viral.

“I became an American citizen recently, and that night, we watched the Republican debate, and I thought, ‘This was a terrible mistake. What have I done?’” she recently told the Hollywood Reporter.

Needless to say this has virtually every Republican in our country pissed off.

“You know what Emily Blunt just did? She just Dixie Chicked herself,” host Steve Doocy said. “She has alienated half the country that now will think twice about going to one of her movies.”

...

“The thing that’s weird is I do get to keep both my British citizenship and this, but you have to renounce [Queen Elizabeth II],” Blunt said. “So, it’s kind of typically American…not to be rude…but I had to renounce her in the room but I don’t actually, technically renounce her.”

So, is it Blunt or Blunts?

Either way, I have no idea who she is.

Probably why she has made herself a story.

Her queen used to decrapitate her subjects for false swearing.
I’m thinking maybe we should suspend our law against cruel and unusual punishment by decrapitating this odd looking woman.

I looked for the photo of her mammary glands thinking maybe she should be spared. But all I could find were two hot chicks (next to ‘Vegetables that destroy stomach fat’) having no legs, joined at their middles like Siamese or conjoined twins.

So in the absence of further evidence I’m going to have to recommend that we go forward with the decrapitation.

this was really dumb of her, even if she was just joking. i know in the crowds she runs in that it’s taken for granted that everyone hates the USA and is so much smarter than every “dumb, racist, sexist, homophobic” republican... but we republicans buy movie tickets and DVDs too. lots of them in fact. insulting the very same people you’re relying on to come see your new movie and keep your career going is not very smart.

it’s a shame too. she was in Edge of Tomorrow and Looper, two of the better sci-fi movies of the past few years. she’s married to that guy from The Office (who had the crush on the receptionist) and he’s been in some movies with George Clooney, so i’m guessing she’s married into a pretty outspoken little clique of libtards and never hears any opposing views expressed other than the democRAT talking points.

His dad was, but also had a bit of a gambling problem.

Michael, from all I’ve heard is pretty solid on most issues.

He was pretty PO’d about the PC BS of the NBA to award Bob Johnson the new franchise in Charlotte.
His buddy, Larry Bird was competing also.
Guess who owns it now?
Michael Jordan, and I believe Bird is a minority owner.

‘Frozen’ and ‘Edge of Tomorrow’ with Tom Cruise too.
Too bad. Same with Ellen Page. I don’t need their BS.

Jordan is not a republican. he’s a pretty liberal democRAT. the thing is he was smart enough to know that alienating half of his customers was bad business. he’s become a billionaire on the wisdom of not alienating your potential customers.

but yeah, he’s a big liberal. he donated to Obama way back when Obama was running for senate.

She said she swore allegiance to the United States of America, and renounced allegiance to the Queen/England, but ... she was crossing her fingers.
I’ve read that new Americans in recent years are not being asked to do this, so they believe they still have dual citizenship.

But no, she didn’t say she thought the debate was bad.
She admitted that she swore to something, but didn’t really mean it.
Deport her lying ass.

I like Emily Blunt.

Besides, she’s no worse than a lot of Hollywood libs.

Tempest in a tea pot.

Eh.

Search American oath of allegiance or Naturalization oath, United States, US Code.
She swore to renounce any other allegiances and ... well hey, never mind.
I keep forgetting that laws don’t apply any more. She’s a nice girl so let’s give her and 30 million Mexicans a bye.
But just this time .....

Either way, I have no idea who she is.

Me neither. Had to go look her up. Turns out I've seen her in a couple of movies - apparently forgettable. She is a mid-tier actress of modest talent and looks (at least with professional makeup and clothing help). If you never saw nor heard from her again you wouldn't notice. We will have forgotten her by this time next week.

I had to look up this actress, but maybe she should go back to Britain where she would be happier with an anti-military, openly socialist, radical-leftist prime minister.

Come to think of it, that describes Obama.

I don’t consider this a “Dixie Chick.” Because she said he statements to a U.S. media source. She didn’t say them in a concert to try to play the local audience behind out backs. So, it may now have been a smart thing to say, and she can take all the criticism she gets. But she wasn’t doing it behind people’s backs. Completely different thing.

Eh, she's cute enough, for a British girl. As for her opinion, I don't have very high expectations for Hollywood types, especially those of the European persuasion. Shame she got citizenship, though. As I don't ever pay for movies, cable, or any other form of leftist brainwashing, I don't have to worry about supporting the likes of her anyway.
