Perhaps they don't realize the support of our president, of our country, of ourselves...does not translate into this 'hate' Natalie 'feels'. Seems now she has defined our differing of opinion, a voting by our wallets as this 'hatred'. She did not receive the support she thought her continued comments should receive...so most certainly (in her own mind) it can only be hatred that is the excuse of not aggreeing with her comments.
Perhaps it's their constant stirring up this controvery, their inability to apologize, their hatred that is projected onto us, that keeps this going.
She has made derogatory comments about the president (on foreign soil), she has now derided country music fans, has been at her utmost stubborness in this whole situation. They are having PR problems and we are being made the scapegoats for these problems.
Seems playing the victim is their present defense.
This is what baffles me. The likes of Maines, Sarandon and Robbins, Tom Cruise, Johnny Depp, and others will talk to European journalists and press outlets about their problems with America, the President, the war, or whatever as if they didn't think it would get back over the Atlantic! HELLO! They've got this thing called the I-n-t-e-r-n-e-t now, maybe you've heard of it???
