What a freeken jerk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sachem longrifle]

like Alice cooper said, if you go to a celebrity for your political views, you are as dumb as they are

[synbad600]

Man, that "Chick" does not know when to STFU.

Keep talking, baby! I'm loving every minute of it!

[God luvs America]

ahh....how to kill your career 101.....

[fatnotlazy]

Well, rumors abound that the Chicks' latest recording is not selling as well as MTV/VH1 and the like would lead you to believe. And there are stories that at least some of their tour might be cancelled or moved to smaller venues due to lack of ticket sales.

Just keeping talking Ms. Maines.

[The G Man]

Huh? Why bash the Patriots? Personally I'm a Giants fan, but you have to respect the Patriots.

[Revolting cat!]

like Alice cooper said

She did?

[Prokopton]

"This statement can only be described as pure ignorance."

She is not ignorant. She is a soulless, self-absorbed, narcissist who sees nothing of value outside herself. POS!

[jazusamo]

Maines is nothing but a spoiled brat who doesn't appreciate the GREAT country she is privilaged to live in.

[MizSterious]

Oh, I think she's ignorant as well as all you said. Ever hear her talk? She's a walking blonde-joke.

[IamConservative]

She needs a weekend with the Taliban to give her some perspective.

[Hildy]

Every news account I read said tour dates were cancelled, but as of today, this is what the Chicks' website says:

June 13, 2006 TOUR UPDATE: Eight new cities have just been added to the first leg of the North American tour (see tour page). No shows have been cancelled. Some originally-announced late summer concert dates that were going to be put on sale the weekend of June 10 were not put on sale until a final determination is made if they are going to be moved to the fall. More tour details announced as they become available.

[Tzimisce]

Ladies and Gentlemen: I give you a proud supporter of the Democratic party. :)

[Camel Joe]

ROFLMAO

[Charles Martel]

"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?"

No surprises here... many on the political left view patriotism as a nationalist vice, rather than a virtue.

That girl really doesn't know the "First Rule of Holes", though, does she?

[msjhall]

Ignorant, ignorant. I wonder what will remain of her fan base with remarks like these. Anybody who agreed with her statements need to take a step back and think about what it is that they believe in.

[Dixiekraut]

This viewpoint really shouldn't surprise anyone should it?
It became somewhat fashionable in the 60's and onward to
reject one's family in favor of the extended family of the "really beautiful people I just met".This is the logical extension of that...America..who needs it? I've got the world!

Kum...bi...yaaaaaaaa.
