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'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.

This girl is an idiot. Her mouth just shoots off on its own. Her management must just look at her and shake their heads.

"I think for longevity's sake, our music had to mature and we had to mature as people," says Maguire. "

This hasn't happened!

"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."

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

She needs to change the name of her band to the Nowhere Chicks then.

"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.

Dsiagree. There's too much anger in her for it to be just that.

Funny, you never see them smiling. They're total body language is "I hate you!"

Compare to the covers of say, Tammy Wynette, Reba and Dolly etc.

Dear Dixie Chicks,

We knew that about you already.

This sick witch just doesn't know when to shut up. There must never have been a Veteran in her family. Isn't she married to someone of Arab descent? Does anyone know?

And there's your trouble, Ms. Maines.
