Why don't these two bazillionares spend some of their own money on the cleanup and quit blasting the feds?

[P-40]

there's a lot of politics being played and a lot of people trying to put people in bad positions in order to further their agendas


With billions to be spent...you kind of expect this sort of thing.

I can't believe these kids took time out from doing blow to sound off.

OK, back to the studios.

I like him. I like her.

But they need a Civics lesson. City and State officials need to take responsibility. Our system of government does not allow the President to visit a state and start bossing everyone around.

Saw this mentioned on CNN this morning...sounds like it is going to be another Bush Bash..

Yeah, let little miss "Mississippi Girl" do something for her home state besides mention it in a song.

To me, there's a lot of politics being played and a lot of people trying to put people in bad positions in order to further their agendas," McGraw, a 38-year-old native of Delhi, La., Democrat told ABC News, leading one to wonder how he's managed to survive 38 years with so little brain function.

So ,genius singers, exactly what is the standard time frame for rebuilding four states?

I'm a big country music fan, but always suspected these two were a couple of lefties. In the words of Laura Ingraham, "shut up and sing".

BTW, ABC News gets it wrong with the duet. "When I get to Where I'm Going" is sung by Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton, not McGraw and Hill. Red State diconnect.

The dumb arse Tim thinks Clinton is the greatest President ever. Nuff said.

[CindyDawg]

And their agenda is..............? Nothing political. Of course not.

Fox News said these two are getting ready to kick off a concert tour. I just did a search on Google and it's true. They have a tour called Soul2Soul starting in April and running through August. They must be trying to get some free publicity to push their tour.

I enjoy watching these two buffoons show their ignorance. They have no idea as to the time it takes to rectify a situation as terrible as this was, particularly in crime ridden New Orleans. Maybe they think a magic fairy can come down and sprinkle some magic dust and make it go away overnight.

[Andy'smom]

Yup, she's a lefty.

I wonder how much the insurance settlement question is delaying the cleanup in that area.

"When you have people dying because they're poor and black or poor and white, or because of whatever they are — if that's a number on a political scale — then that is the most wrong thing. That erases everything that's great about our country."

"There's no reason why someone can't go down there who's supposed to be the leader of the free world … and say, 'I'm giving you a job to do and I'm not leaving here until it's done.

Alice Cooper said, "“If you're listening to a rock star in order to get your information on who to vote for, you're a bigger moron than they are.”

In light of Faith and Tim's rants, we can modify Cooper's quote to say, "“If you're listening to a rock country music star in order to get your information on who to vote for political issues, you're a bigger moron than they are.”

Used to like McGraw.... Too bad he didn't just shut up and sing.

Lots of other country singers that I can give my money to besides him.

[quack]

For the record,she did buy and hand deliver supplies to Gulfport.Three truckloads.

These two should be careful or they'll go the way of the Dixie Chix (excommunicated from Country Music).
