Arrogant, spoiled brats .. .. and suffering from BDS AND SBD ..(spoiled brat dimentia)= BDSSBD.

"Despite being the best-selling female act of all time,"

I guess the author never heard of 'Heart', which stuck to rock-n-roll and kept their political opinions to themselves.

Your post was so good it bears repeating. Gosh, does that immature little brat need to read it... Repeatedly. Until it seeps into her pea brain...

Natalie, Natalie, Natalie. You still don't get it, do you? I, we (many, many of us at any rate) are perfectly willing to abide your having, and even expressing, divergent political views and still support your music. We do that all the time.

I love your father for instance, and the many wonderful contributions he has made to Texas music. I would be a little disappointed if I learned that he shared your fatuous and air-headed political views, but that wouldn't change how I felt.

Th(e) difference is your father is considerate, tolerant and humble. You, OTOH, are aggressively rude, proudly bigoted, and outrageously self absorbed. You denounce vast contingents of your (former) fan base as stupid and venal, based entirely on the most facile sorts of stereotypes, and then get offended that they are upset with you. And you think weathering (while actively feeding) this controversy has made you a "woman"? PLEASE!. It's only highlighted your immaturity. It's your snarling hatred and infantile whining that's turned away your fans. Why don't you grow up and take some responsibility?

[Note to Freepers: Natalies father Lloyd Maines is a venerable Texas guitarist, performer and record producer.]

“It turned us into women,” says Natalie Maines, "Or in my case, two women."

I was e-chatting with a friend in Texas, and asked her what their hometown thought of the Dixie Chicks. She answered that the local whorehouse was doing better business than the Chicks at the moment.

(I most carefully did not ask her how she knew.)

That's a big difference! I wouldn't doubt George Jones, but I was going to call BS on George Strait!

I never got a letter - and never sent a letter. I think the chicks are lying.

The Chicks aren't giving money to keep FreeRepublic going -- and their lawyer doesn't donate to FreeRepublic either... does he? That smells like censorship...

And the chicks speak against us! Us - how dare they? And they've never sent money to keep FreeRepublic going. How can it be? It's censorship! That's the only answer.

Everyone must love us. And support us. Oh, wait, I'm not some puffed up idiot like the Chicks who thinks only my rights matter. Come to think of it, it's OK that they don't donate to FreeRepublic, and it's OK that I don't buy their CD's. Sheesh.

That's funny. I don't remember getting any letter

Neither did I.

I didn't even know JimRob had our actual street addresses!

Hey, how come I'm not on the mailing list?????

What a whining bunch of muddle-headed bimbos. Nothing they say makes any sense, and they tend to contradict themselves - sometimes withing the very same sentence. Just amazing.

Rove is quite impressive, I must say. That new model 30000 automatic letter-writing machine covers his tracks better than the hurricane machine did!

" and besides ... we're only 30,000 thick ???"




Not since early 2000.

For example you are #166,756 and that was on 9/15/04.

I was hoping that just from a rock perspective, people could cite bigger selling "female acts".

I guess you could say I'm not a big supporter of the music industry.

Went to a concert once in 1973. Headliner was Jerry Jeff Walker, opened by Flash Cadillac and the Continental Kids.

Owned a turntable, amplifier, speakers and such briefly (1974 - 1976).

Never owned the players or bought the medium for 8-track, casette or DVD.

My latest pickup has an FM radio, but I finally figured out how to make it not go there.

Don't know what to tell you other than that.

mass55th,

If there had been a letter, I'm sure you would have gotten one since your id is #59. I stand in reverence. I thought I'd been here a while (7/20/98 #7188).
