CHICKS FLICK STIRS POT

WELL, at least the Dixie Chicks have the Canadians on their side. After Tuesday's premiere of Barbara Koppel's documentary about the Chicks, "Shut Up and Sing" - which is about how their fans revolted after Natalie Maines bashed President Bush two years ago - Toronto Film Festival managing director Michelle Maheux said, "This country would never allow something like this to happen." While the Canadian crowd ate up the movie, conservatives were riled up again - specifically with lead singer Maines, who calls President Bush a "dumb [bleep]" in the film. "What a fascist little bee-atch!" said one angry post on the FreeRepublic.com blog. Another called the group "the Dixie Sluts," and a third described Maines as a "classless little fat ass." The flick screens at the Woodstock Film Festival next month.

I got a $50 fine for questioning the musical genius of Terry Jacks.

What we have to remember about Canada is this...we fought for our independence from the United Kingdom, the UK gave Canada away.

Natalie is still a porker. She actually looks frumpier today than she does in that picture. Today she makes Miss Piggy look like she's been hanging out at Jenny Craigs for the last year or so. I think that blubber has gone to her head.

Criticizing Celine Dion will get you the death penalty.

Toronto Film Festival managing director Michelle Maheux said, "This country would never allow something like this to happen."

So what is she saying--that any contrary opinions would be squashed? Any dissent from the Government-Approved Groupthink is immediately placed under the jackboot? Seems to me that she's saying exactly that.

Celine Dion is the Great Satan!

I have interviewed Bryan Adams. It was like speaking to a cat.

God, he is stupid.

Any amplification of your post would get me banned.

Well, Ms. Koppel, people call it as they see it here, just as they would at home around the table on a Friday night.

There's not much holding back here, but on the whole, we are decent folks. You will note this even in threads mentioning the deaths of Democrats.

THEY ARE NOT UNTALENTED. You may not like their music, but to say they are not talented says more about you than about them. I HATE WHEN FR DOES THIS.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Celine will just have to take it on the chin.

Didn't Laura Ingraham have that title copyrighted????

Exactly. There is nothing worst for narcissists like Maines then to ignore them and I may add don't purchase any of their products (I think this is obvious.)

She thrives on this attention.

You know, you may have a good pernt there.

Ms. Kopple produced Winter Soldier.

Nuff said.

Thank you! I used to like their music, as they are very talented musicians and many of their older songs are very well harmonized. However, their recent stuff is crap - they are trying to be "pop" since they threw themselves out of country.

You're a slut lover? I'm afraid I'm gonna have to make you go stand in a corner with Natalie Maines for an hour....that'll cure ya!
