''I just want to send a message that this isn't right,'' she said. ''I believe that my personal convictions that I stated … have nothing to do with my job performance.''





How correct she is. A producer who insults Stars using Company property and name. I guess her JOB PERFORMANCE needs a little brush up. BYE, BYE DUMMY.

From http://www.douglasfulmer.com/TamaraSaviano.htm:

Tamara is a writer, editor and producer in Nashville, Tennessee with more than 15 years of journalism experience. For the past decade she has specialized in country music and is currently producing a national television show for the Great American Country network and a syndicated radio show for Jones Radio Network. In her free time, the yellow dog democrat enjoys reading anything and everything about politics. She also runs, hikes and follows her favorite football team, the Green Bay Packers.

Sound's like very little Yellow Dog.

In an e-mail exchange with Webster, she described Daniels' posting as "offensive," "an insult" and "bulls… propaganda."

Truth stings, doesn't it missy?!

''I just want to send a message that this isn't right,'' she said. ''I believe that my personal convictions that I stated … have nothing to do with my job performance.''

The funny thing is despite that rule applying to HER, she wanted a boycott of Charlie Daniels because HIS personal convictions apparently do have something to do with his job performance.
