Maines is truly a classless wonder.... its a shame the sisters, while also leftist at least have business sense, allow her to keep acting like the little spoiled brat she is.

[holdmuhbeer]

I think an IQ test is in order for this girl, I didn't think anybody could be that stupid.

[ninenot]

They'll wind up doing Rock, with more soft-core porn to bolster the Rock image. Money will be OK in that marketplace.

[Andonius_99]

Earth to Fatalie...Dig up, stupid, dig up!!!

[NCjim]

Just so you know, we're ashamed the President of the United States is from Texas

Just so you know, I am from Dixie, and I'm ashamed that someone might think that you reflect the views of those of us in Dixie.

[grumple]

Where is the DC's management in all of this. Remember, they are the one's that went on the "rebuilding their image" tour. Did they now know of her t-shirt and did they not caution against it? Do they not care? What idiots...

Note to future country music stars...make sure potential management resume's do not include "former management of the Dixie Chicks" anywhere on them...

[Coyote]

Well, I'm not usually inclined toward the vulgar, but in this case I think I'll forego my normal, respectful prohibitions.

Accordingly, if I were Toby, I'd be inclined to respond to F.U.T.K. with a tee shirt of my own.

Maybe one bearing the acronym, B.O.L.P.P.I.W.

Whazzit mean?

Try, "Bend Over Little Porker and Perhaps I will."

[GraniteStateConservative]

The Dixie Chicks are pop stars and there are plenty of pop music fans who agree with Maines' FUDC sentiment, sadly.

[NonValueAdded]

Saddam's Angels ... supposedly that moniker [monica? :)] riles them the most.

[Redbob]

FUNM!

[Redbob]

"... they were asked at the last moment to perform via satellite from Austin, Texas."

'Nuff said.
It's just not cool to be patriotic in The Peoples' Republic of Austin.

[hispanarepublicana]

Que? Quien es "Dixie Chicks"?

[1Old Pro]

All they have to do is shut up and sing.

Good advice for all entertainers.

[jonalvy44]

well there's always Seattle...they could play the coffee houses there. They'll never see a penny of my money again.

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Or they can continue to be country superstars. If they choose the latter--time can heal this, if that’s what the Chicks want.

All they have to do is shut up and sing.

I'm not so sure about this. I think they might actually have sentenced themselves to The Great Cutouts Bin of Death this time.

I certainly hope so.

[Elsie]

The Dixie Chicks lost the entertainer of the year award to none other than Toby Keith, which pleased the Vegas fans. In fact they failed to win any awards.

Hee, hee, hee..........        Haman comes to mind........

 

Esther 5:12-14
 12.  "And that's not all," Haman added. "I'm the only person Queen Esther invited to accompany the king to the banquet she gave. And she has invited me along with the king tomorrow.
 13.  But all this gives me no satisfaction as long as I see that Jew Mordecai sitting at the king's gate."
 14.  His wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, "Have a gallows built, seventy-five feet  high, and ask the king in the morning to have Mordecai hanged on it. Then go with the king to the dinner and be happy." This suggestion delighted Haman, and he had the gallows built.

 

Esther 6:1-14
 1.  That night the king could not sleep; so he ordered the book of the chronicles, the record of his reign, to be brought in and read to him.
 2.  It was found recorded there that Mordecai had exposed Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's officers who guarded the doorway, who had conspired to assassinate King Xerxes.
 3.  "What honor and recognition has Mordecai received for this?" the king asked.   "Nothing has been done for him," his attendants answered.
 4.  The king said, "Who is in the court?" Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the palace to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows he had erected for him.
 5.  His attendants answered, "Haman is standing in the court."   "Bring him in," the king ordered.
 6.  When Haman entered, the king asked him, "What should be done for the man the king delights to honor?"   Now Haman thought to himself, "Who is there that the king would rather honor than me?"
 7.  So he answered the king, "For the man the king delights to honor,
 8.  have them bring a royal robe the king has worn and a horse the king has ridden, one with a royal crest placed on its head.
 9.  Then let the robe and horse be entrusted to one of the king's most noble princes. Let them robe the man the king delights to honor, and lead him on the horse through the city streets, proclaiming before him, `This is what is done for the man the king delights to honor!'"
 10.  "Go at once," the king commanded Haman. "Get the robe and the horse and do just as you have suggested for Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the king's gate. Do not neglect anything you have recommended."
 11.  So Haman got the robe and the horse. He robed Mordecai, and led him on horseback through the city streets, proclaiming before him, "This is what is done for the man the king delights to honor!"
 12.  Afterward Mordecai returned to the king's gate. But Haman rushed home, with his head covered in grief,
 13.  and told Zeresh his wife and all his friends everything that had happened to him.   His advisers and his wife Zeresh said to him, "Since Mordecai, before whom your downfall has started, is of Jewish origin, you cannot stand against him--you will surely come to ruin!"
 14.  While they were still talking with him, the king's eunuchs arrived and hurried Haman away to the banquet Esther had prepared.

 

Esther 7:1-10
 1.  So the king and Haman went to dine with Queen Esther,
 2.  and as they were drinking wine on that second day, the king again asked, "Queen Esther, what is your petition? It will be given you. What is your request? Even up to half the kingdom, it will be granted."
 3.  Then Queen Esther answered, "If I have found favor with you, O king, and if it pleases your majesty, grant me my life--this is my petition. And spare my people--this is my request.
 4.  For I and my people have been sold for destruction and slaughter and annihilation. If we had merely been sold as male and female slaves, I would have kept quiet, because no such distress would justify disturbing the king. "
 5.  King Xerxes asked Queen Esther, "Who is he? Where is the man who has dared to do such a thing?"
 6.  Esther said, "The adversary and enemy is this vile Haman."   Then Haman was terrified before the king and queen.
 7.  The king got up in a rage, left his wine and went out into the palace garden. But Haman, realizing that the king had already decided his fate, stayed behind to beg Queen Esther for his life.
 8.  Just as the king returned from the palace garden to the banquet hall, Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was reclining.   The king exclaimed, "Will he even molest the queen while she is with me in the house?"   As soon as the word left the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.
 9.  Then Harbona, one of the eunuchs attending the king, said, "A gallows seventy-five feet  high stands by Haman's house. He had it made for Mordecai, who spoke up to help the king."  The king said, "Hang him on it!"
 10.  So they hanged Haman on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king's fury subsided.

Wow!  What a modern parallel!!

 

 

[HatSteel]

can do that....all they have to do is shut up and sing

for me, at least --- they can't shut up and sing that much.

I'm not coming back to their side. Ever.
