Dixie Chicks Latest Apology (Waffles Like A Belgium)

Statement from Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks March 14, 2003

"As a concerned American citizen, I apologize to President Bush because my remark was disrespectful. I feel that whoever holds that office should be treated with the utmost respect. We are currently in Europe and witnessing a huge anti-American sentiment as a result of the perceived rush to war. While war may remain a viable option, as a mother, I just want to see every possible alternative exhausted before children and American soldiers' lives are lost. I love my country. I am a proud American."

You are so right !!!!!!

[uncitizen]

Nice try! But it's already decided. You've lost us Fat Nat!

[amused]

So, rather than ignore or try to combat it, you chose to join it. How very heroic of you. Hope you your suffer many cancellations of concert tickets and never sell another record again.

Oddly it almost seemed to be a solidarity call to sell more records in Europe. Is Europe big on country music?

A dollar short and a minute too late.

A Euro short and a minute late.

The Euroweenies made her do it? Is that an acceptable defense in Judge Ito's courtroom?

[Strider]

Her first statement should have been a appology to President Bush.

This is too little too late.

[uncitizen]

OH Please! Sales of "Home" started tanking last night and they're trying to cut this off at the pass.

Is Europe big on country music?

I haven't a clue. I'm not big on it and I'm in the States.

[LiveFreeOrDie2001]

Thank God I didn't buy concert tickets when they went on sale last weekend !!!!!!!!!

Whew !

"We are currently in Europe and witnessing a huge anti-American sentiment as a result of the perceived rush to war. "
WHICH REALLY MEANS....

WE are currently in Europe and witnessing a huge anti -Dixie Chicks sentiment as a result of my stupid Treasonis comment and the perceived rush to pull our records from air time, besides..........the other two want to scratch my eyes out!!!

[amused]

The Euroweenies made her do it? Is that an acceptable defense in Judge Ito's courtroom?

LOL...it's been years since I have heard an Ito reference and even longer since I found it funny ;-)

A person's 1st gut thought or reaction is almost always their true thought, feeling, or answer. That was her's, too late Dixie Chick. By the way, why don't people like yourself and your Hollywood cronies have the cajones to say this stuff in the American press? You always have to go overseas...

[small voice in the wilderness]

Seems they may just be starting to understand what Landslide means.

Go buy a clue. You join in the America bashing because of some fruit loops overseas? Get informed "chick", and you won't make stupid statments that you are unable to apologize for later. Blaming your statements because you're a mother is equally weak.

[amused]

I haven't a clue. I'm not big on it and I'm in the States.

I'm not either but for some strange reason I know all the words to Kenny Rogers' the Gambler.

[ProudArmyWife]

and the wrath of the travelin soldier. DAMN that was a great song too!

[ShandaLear]

Shucks, they got carried away in the moment. Hitler would have loved them at Auschwitz.

[Sam Cree]

"I just want to see every possible alternative exhausted before children and American soldiers' lives are lost."

Why is she not saying this to the Islamist terror organizations and the nations that tolerate them?

[lady lawyer]

I'll buy another Dixie Chicks album when Natalie gets a neck. She'll never get a brain.
