Now that's what I'm talkin' about!

She is exceedingly easy on the eyes, no?

[Steve_Seattle]

"Where did I say I like her music?"

And since when does Britney know or care what people at FR think, stupid one?

[hobbes1]

I'd bork her...LOL

I have two theories that are based on what I've found on Free Republic:

1. Getting married raises a woman's IQ by at least ten points.

2. Learning to shoot raises a woman's IQ by at least ten points.

Therefore, I plant to marry Britney and teach her to shoot.

Whoa, whoa. Calm down guys. I think you both misunderstood each other.

Steve, I don't think 68G was saying that liking Britney's music was any kind of conservatism test. I think he just resaid what I did...that it's sily for people to attack someone who hasn't said anything that we disagree with.

And I think you agreed with me in calling her addicted to cocaine on the basis of her eyebrow color is stoopid. :)

I think you're agreeing on the big picture, but aren't seeing it. Just MHO.

[Alas]

bttt

To paraphrase sirgawain...

"Eyes?"

[Sir Gawain]

You're just trying to get my in trouble, aren't you? I've never said anything about Britney.

[Sabertooth]

Sounds like you're already having trouble, Gawain.

[Sir Gawain]

Oops. Or should I say opps.

Britney deserves credit for her repsonse, not bashing.

She's a pop airhead, and doesn't pretend otherwise.

FReepers are always bellyaching about MTV airheads who feel the need to share their knowledge of environmental science and foreign policy.

FINALLY! -- an honest airhead. Kudos to the 19-year-old kid for sensing her limitations, and not pretending to be more than a pop star!

Wyatt: Well said. Thanks. And to all you other nay sayers: Ever since Britney opened her mouth about wanting "to stay a virgin and wanting to be a stay at home mom etc etc" every news person and entertainment person elite have all of the suddenly decided to say bad things about her when previously they said how great she is. Just read HER book (i'm sure some of those media jerks have)--not some stupid quotes from the usually spiteful media or tabloids when they decide they don't want someone in their click. Don't criticize the poor girl if you are not going to really learn anything about her and what SHE says rather than what those stupid media jerks (whom I have never liked) want to say about her. I have read her biography and letters she says. The girl is just plain down to earth kid who was raised with decent values (quite frankly I have yet to learn why tmedia types have such a hatred to any values). I also do not think this an issue of class envy. If it were why don't they shoot down Streisand, Oprah, or Steven Speilberg? Truth be told I think it's because some stars probably aren't donating enough to certain causes. Oh my Britney does not tip waitresses for bad service. Shame on her (yeah right). The following is a part of a letter written by Britney on her official site: ... There is so much turmoil in our country right now and I feel compelled to tell you how I feel. Maybe it will help you with trying to understand the craziness of it all. My brother Bryan lives in New York in lower Manhattan. I heard about the crisis after leaving New York and landing in Los Angeles. I was terrified for my brother and everyone else. I didn't want to continue to Australia but we did. A twenty-two hour flight allows you to do a lot of praying and thinking. I calmed my fears by deciding that I live in the best county in the world. President Bush is a fine leader. The American people should support his decisions. It was a horrific action against the USA by a heartless group of people. I stay in prayer for the victims, our wonderful county and our leaders. I am donating my time and money for relief for the families of the victims. My hope is that you will also do what you can to help out. Love, Britney

Agreed! I'm sure Kevin Richardson (?) (from either N*Sync or Backstreat Boys) was wishing he had kept his uninformed trap shut. That little gaffe of his sure bit him in the a$$.
