Dixie Chicks vs. Toby Keith
Comments on article "Dixie Chicks vs. Toby Keith"| Name | Views and Comments | Date |
| Andrew | The Dixie Chicks are one of the most authentic bands the US has ever produced. It is a shame (but not surprising) that country music fans (read..."the south") are so itolerant of those who see the world in a different way than they do. | 2/12/2012 |
| Bob Mitchum | toby keith is a military veteran,as such he has my support | 11/27/2011 |
| Ron | Put it this way i think that the dixie chicks need a lot of respect so far as talent and being human.besides Toby your a loss cause keep on making beer and funny drunk videos and apply that to your flag that you support in fact your flag should be embarased to support you. dixie chicks i support your reasoning and your artistic talent.I'm sure me being a canadian we would be proud to adopt you.so therefore in these words being in my own opinion go chicks go... | 11/24/2011 |
| Bucknor | Why dont you take sume and tell me how it workd for you iddiot! | 11/18/2011 |
| Whocares | I hear rat poison is good for that Bucknor. | 10/25/2011 |
| Bucknor | This hassent been my day. I woke up with a bad case of diurea. I think it was becaus of some bad rotisry chicken that my wife got. I was sick when I went to bed last night but I thought it was becaus I ate to late. I'm still sick and I have not been able to eat any think crakkers today. Yall pray for me. | 10/16/2011 |
| Bucknor | Lord I cant beleave the stuff on tv. Theres no wander things are so mest up in thise country. Its all for the gays and the people who likes them. I miss the god old days! | 7/17/2011 |
| Gary-Michael | Rolf, I appreciate your comments. Conservatives in this country are like spoiled brats. If they don't get their way, they throw tantrums. Many have openly admitted that they hope our President fails, yet they consider themselves patriots. The conservatives in the US are a strange coalition of the uber-wealthy who want more cuts in taxes for themselves (at the expense of the middle class) and low-income religious evangelicals who have been duped into believing that those tax cuts will help them. Many of these people have said far worse things about our current President than Natalie Maines ever said about Bush. Talk about hypocrites! | 7/7/2011 |
| Rolf | This is what I do not understand Mr. Ex-Navy. The Dixie Chicks said something that should not have caused riots. They simply disagreed with the decision of your ex-president to invade Iraq, as did most of the rest of the world. I believe that most Americans now think it was a mistake. For using their freedom of speech, radio stations banned their music and people threatened their lives. That makes no sense to me. | 5/11/2011 |
| Mr.ExNavy | People are free here to say whatever they want unless it is to incite riots or physical harm like yelling fire in a crowded movie theater. Although we are free to speak what we want does not mean that it won't pi$$ people off and they can then in turn voice their opinions as well. Freedom of speech does not mean there are not consequences for your speech. | 5/4/2011 |
| Rolf | I live in Germany. America calls itself the land of the free but the Dixie Chicks are punished for speaking their minds. We know the danger of extreme nationalism and überpatriotism. It makes people look ignorant. The United States is not the only country in the world with freedom. In fact there are more freedoms in many countries. | 4/15/2011 |
| Bucknor | Your a bad persen and I hope bad thinks hapen to you a Hooder. YOU DONT HAVE TO REDD IT! | 4/15/2011 |

| Toby is a knob | The Dixie Chicks were right to criticize President Bush because he was a horrible president. If I were a Texan, I'd be ashamed if he were from Texas too. Toby Keith is what is wrong with this country. To blindly follow a fool just because he is the president is ignorant. Natalie calling Toby ignorant was not far off the mark. You can support the troops and NOT believe the president is the village idiot. I think a Patriot should stand up for what is right for the American people. Was the war in Iraq right for the American people and the troops? Hell no. | 3/28/2011 |
| Bucknor | I seen this women name Ladie Goo Goo or Ladie Go Go or somthing like that. I think she was on drugs or somthing. I should just stop wchting tv. | 3/17/2011 |
| Bucknor | I seen a woman yesterday who was having an afare with her husbands brother. This world is so mest up that it makes me sad. Things want get better until the Lord comes back. | 2/15/2011 |
| Bucknor | I DONE TOLD YOU DONT REDD THEM! | 1/18/2011 |
| Hooder | So I guess 2011 is Bucknor's year to talk about women's fashion? Thank God we don't have do go through another year of him/her misspelling the name of every food in the pyramid! | 1/11/2011 |
| Bucknor | My weif got a prescribtion to a fashun maggazine for Christmas and oh deer Lord, I cannot beleave what women are waring these days! | 1/9/2011 |
| Bucknor | So tooday a frend of mine brought over some mufins and they were good. They were mosit and real sweat and I liked them a lot. So then my frend tells me that it is a zukini mufin. I could not beleave it because I do not like zukini. When I was young I ate some and it allmost made me sick so I was afriad that I woud get sick after eatting these mufins but I did not. I probabbly will not eat them any more now that I know what is in them. | 9/28/2010 |
| cantstopsrfn | I've been reading these comments and i for one can't see how the Dixie Chics done wrong. So Natalie voiced her opinion big deal. I see alot of opinions on here. It's freedom of speech. It dont't matter when, where, how are who. Free speech is free speech. I find Toby's song pretty ignorant myself. And the whole Bush thing. If he was from my state i would have felt the same way. What's bad is how everyone starting hating the Dixie Chics for a comment Natalie mad. Boo F-----G hoo. What's funny is how when these hater's realized Bush was the dumb ass. WoW ... the Chics once again the best thing ever. Bend over and grab your ankles. Now Obama's screwing us. LOL | 9/15/2010 |
| Bucknor | THIN DONT REDD THEM! | 8/1/2010 |
| Hooder | Please learn to spell, Bucknor. Reading your mindless posts is rotting my brain. | 7/30/2010 |
| Bucknor | I went to a shop in the maul and baught some cuckies. They were the best cuckies I have even eatten! They had chocolet and nuts. I think they had wall nuts and peccons and maybe some allmans in them and they also had fruit. I know they had razins but I am not sure what the other fruit was. Maybe it was dates but it was not as sweet as dates and it was not the usual chocolet cuckie it was otmeel or grenolla. Next time I go to the maul I am going to get more of those cuckies! | 7/24/2010 |
| Bucknor | Why do'nt anybody respond to my question? | 6/29/2010 |
| Ralph Alfgar | Recent history has proven Natalie to be correct. Bush was an idiot and responsible for our economic failures. Keith confuses patriotism with ignorance. I wonder if he supports Obama with the same rubber-stamping zeal he had for Bush. | 6/17/2010 |
| Bucknor | I am intrested. Does every body here drink coffey or tea? I like both. | 6/12/2010 |
| Hooder | Bucknor nobody cares about what you had to eat. This is a discussion of something else. Go learn to spell! | 6/6/2010 |
| Bucknor | I am grilling stake for diner tonite! My secrit is to put buter on the stake while I grill it but be carful! If you put to much buter on the stake it can flair up and cause a fire! That hapened to me once. | 5/22/2010 |
| Kathy Wilkinson | Big bottom TK does not have a clue what a person's civil rights are! He just wants them all in the kitchen, barefoot and pregnant. He bullies the whole Country Western community with his nonsense and, personally I do not want to hear another word about him. | 5/16/2010 |
| Bucknor | I just tried keesh last night for the first time. I did not thank I would like it but now I wish I had tryed it soner! I relly liked the crust because it was crisp and the insides were like an omlet or custerd but filled with stuff I like like peepers, mushrumes, onyens, ham, chess, and bakin. I want to have it aggin! | 4/28/2010 |
| Bucknor | I had some dillishus strawberrys last night with wept cream on top of a slies of pond cake. It was so good I had annother surfing of it. | 4/20/2010 |
| anonymous | I think Toby Keith is a great country singer and I do like th Dixie Chicks but I'm agreeing with Toby Keith! | 3/17/2010 |
| Canadian gal. | i love both dixie chicks and toby keith still and i don't care what happened. yes what they did might have been wrong, but its there freedom of speech for women also. | 3/11/2010 |
| nanaL | wow it amazes me how the Dixie Chicks few comments can cause people that don't even know each other to turn against one another and have such strong opinions lets just face it politics are like one big soap opera and furthermore what ever happen to freedom of speech this is the USA. | 3/9/2010 |
| Bucknor | over the weekend i had the most wonderfull fruit salatt. it had greaps of differnet colors but no sedes. i cannot stand sedes in my greaps! it also had strawberrys and ornages and some kind of mellon. i uslally do not like the mellons but these were acceptionel! the dressing was a combanation of lemon juice, ornage juice and jinger ail. yes, jinger ail! my mouth is wattering just thinnink about it! | 3/1/2010 |

| Allyson | Just because Toby Keith records a bunch of songs that sound alike over and over again and his toothless fans keep buying them does not make him an artist. | 12/23/2009 |
| true american | toby keith is a real american and the dixie chicks are nothing at least he has some american pride and ive heard dozens of toby's songs but its been a while since i heard a dixie chicks song | 11/21/2009 |
| Truth | Say what you want about Rep or Dem, Bush or Obama. The fact is toby still hitting high on the charts time and time again. What have the dixie chicks done. Toby makes more money and has more fans. That is not a opinion. It is fact. | 11/14/2009 |
| Gary-Michael | E, please explain to me why a lot of conservatives resort to name-calling, as you did, when trying to make a point? | 10/11/2009 |
| E | THIS IS THE GOOD OL USA AS TOBY SINGS. SO THE DIXIE CLITS ARE ENTITLED TO SPEAK THEIR MIND. AS IS TOBY | 10/10/2009 |

| clay | a lesson about what? how to be an ignorant redneck? | 9/10/2009 |
| kab | i think tody keith is great, and the three women should learn a lesson by watching him | 8/22/2009 |
| John | Let me tell you how I feel Toby Keth has RUNT the lives of three wonderfull MUSIANS he has told every one who will listen about his history.! I went to a horse event and all they played was Toby I got up and left . This is so crazy the war's happen because of the Presidents that we have. So how do you feel now TOBY sad isnt it , | 8/22/2009 |
| TRISH | Toby Keith needs to get off his high horse. This war is not because of three Muscians every one has a openion so get over it Toby it is crazy these women said how they felt and so do I agree. This war has taken my stepson and many other's who I love. So let it go it's there way of showing how they feel . GET OVER IT TOBY | 8/22/2009 |
| PATMAN | I love the Dixie Chicks and Toby, the 'chicks are "demo's" and Toby is a 'repub'. and in todays political climate that means a war. I love their music not their political perceptions. They both support the troops, the "Chicks" didn't support the lies of the demon Cheney and the industrial-military complex, they mistakenly blamed Bush who isn't the swiftest bird in the flock at the best of times.Toby got his hackles up when the Chicks criticized the war which they were right to do. TO "an american" you are an idoit ! You want to blame someone? Blame the the biggest tratior this country in history ... neo-con x-sen. Phil Gramm who de-regulated the financial markets and brought this upon you, his is the reason you can't go out and buy your fat wife her all you can eat buffet any more! | 8/22/2009 |
| KSTEW1 | I WORK FOR THE MILITARY AND TOBY KEITH IS A PATRIOT | 8/18/2009 |
| erich | wingnuts like an american scare the spit out of me. i am ashamed they live in the same country i do! | 8/18/2009 |
| Katelyn | DIxie chicks are forever the best! | 8/8/2009 |
| Archer | I think it's kind of funny that the same people who accused the Dixie Chicks of being un-American for their comments are now watching Glenn Beck and listening to Rush Limbaugh. Yet, they don't hold Beck or Limbaugh accountable for their comments about President Obama, which were FAR worse than anything that Natalie Maines said about Bush. It shows how hypocritical many conservatives are, and how little they actually understand the concept of freedom of speech. It goes both ways, even if you don't agree. | 8/6/2009 |
| marco | tell it to someone who cares dude | 6/1/2009 |
| An American | You know how much money I had in the last eight years?I used to be able to go out and eat whenever I wanted to I used to be able to go buy stuff for my family,now I can't do that we may go out to eat once every two weeks we can't buy what we want we have to sell things to pay for our mortgage that doesn't sound like Bush because I USED to be able to eat out and buy stuff for my family now I can't... | 5/1/2009 |
| Dee | Every one is entitled to their opinion BUT it is in the way that it is said. The Dixie Checks should have used some decorum but they screwed up. I think they got what they deserved. | 4/29/2009 |
| Amber | President Obama is cleaning up all of the messes that Bush caused. Bush wrecked our economy by taking away any oversight of the banking industry, declaring war on Iraq (without finishing the job in Afghanistan), and giving reckless tax cuts. You must be a joke, An American. | 4/27/2009 |
| An American | Obama spent TRILLIONS of taxpayer dollars on something even he said will either not help at all or help just a little bit. That to me doesn't sound like Bush's fault. | 4/25/2009 |
| Gary-Michael | Are you BLIND? BUSH is the one who spent us into this mess and then gave tax cuts to people who make over $250K per year. Don't blame Obama for all of these problems Bush caused. We know you want him to fail. You're not "An American." You're a disgrace. | 4/16/2009 |
| An American | I do hope Obama fails although at least he is showing a little spine by killing those ragheads that pirated that boat off the coast of Somalia good work BO no how bout you stop spending money we don't own and actually try to be president. |
4/14/2009 |
| Hairy | I am very proud of the Dixie Chicks for their statement about George Bush. It is a shame that it took the majority of us so long to realize what the Bush Adm was doing to our country. | 4/14/2009 |
| TK4EVER | WOW IT IS SAD THAT MORE PEOPLE LIKE THE DIXIE CHICKS BECAUSE TOBY IS SO CUTE! I AM STILL LOOKING FOR SHIRTLESS PICTURES OF TOBY, SO IF ANYBODY KNOWS WHERE I CAN FIND THEM PLEASE TELL ME. I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR HELP SO MUCH! | 4/7/2009 |
| Tim Treakle | WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO FREEDOM OF SPEECH? I DON'T LIKE PRESIDENT BUSH NOT BECAUSE HE'S FROM TEXAS BECAUSE HE BANKRUPTED OUR COUNTRY.I SUPPORT OUR TROOPS BUT I FEEL IT'S LONG OVER DO THAT THEY NEED TO RETURN HOME WHAT'S DONE IS DONE.I LOVE THE DIXIE CHICKS AND TOBY KEITH BUT THEY ARE INTITLED TO THEIR OPINION. | 3/29/2009 |
| Tutelagia C | Woof woof woof, meow meow meow! Tutelagia is in the house now! |
3/18/2009 |
| Amber | "An American," your desire to see Obama fail says it all. You are not a true American. | 3/14/2009 |
| toby is the man | Toby Keith is a true American. The vast majority of service men and women prefer his country music to the what the dixie chicks play. Thanks for your patriotic music Toby | 3/3/2009 |
| An American | Amber and DC your just a couple of stupid liberals that grew up fearing guns I cant believe people like you are telling me im whats wrong with America I can't believe anyone could ever hate there country enough to be like you two. JUST TO MAKE IT CLEAR STUPID LIBERALS LIKE YOU ARE WHATS WRONG WITH THE WORLD! But next time I want to spend someones money i'll call you two. P.S I hope Obama FAILS! Have fun in hell Atheist. |
2/21/2009 |
| ILUVDC | An American. its the people like you who are wrong with the world. Ur a disgrace to america for that comment. Im not even going to waste my time on continuing this pointless argument with you.. your just not smart enough to carry an intelligent debate. |
2/4/2009 |
| Amber | An American, you really should not be calling anyone "dumb," considering your inability to construct whole sentences. Your math leaves a lot to be desired, as well. Obama won my 7 points, not 4. He won by 8 1/2 million votes. He got more than twice as many electoral votes as McCain. If you don't think that's big, you haven't paid much attention to the US political system in the past few decades. Oh, and considering the problems that the conservatives created in this country in the past eight years - from Iraq to the economy - I think being called a liberal is a compliment, so thank you! |
1/30/2009 |
| An American | Obama won by 4 points you dumb city slicking liberal maybe you should get your facts from somewhere other than CNN so is 4 points big? I don't think so I think you need to get your facts straight and Canadian you know nothing of what its like living here so don't even say anything why don't you stay in Canada we don't need more of you in the US. | 1/26/2009 |
| Amber | An American, work on your spelling and grammar, and then get back to us with your ravings. Obama won. Obama won BIG! Get over it! | 1/26/2009 |
| ILUVDC | this message is to AN AMERICAN! who graced me with his uneducated opinion. I travel and do alot of business through america, I work for a financial institution in canada, and I'm well aware of the state america is in and how its DEEPLY affecting canada as well. As u know we are the sister to your country and we also pay the prices for your leaders ( BUSH ) mistakes. Canadian soldiers are fighting that "war" too and we work together as a team as an aliance. So don't you dare say its easy for me to say, because we are also paying for the price here in canada for what is going on in the US. And if it was the other way around you it would be the same, thats just how our countries work ( canada and the US ) Im very proud of america, and I strongly believe and HOPE that obama will bring US to the top where it rightfully belongs. You have no real reason to dislike him, he has only been the president a few days, The dixie chicks made and opinion about bush after he had established himself and made a grave error for the war that subsequently failed in attempts to finding weapons of mass destruction he 100% new was in Iraq supposedly. People don't understand that wars continue for soo long even after people think its finished. The US and the middleeast have been fighting for YEARS because of power trips on both parts. Peace is what is needed. |
1/25/2009 |
| An American | Easy for you to say ILUVDC Obama is easy for someone to like not living in this country but in it you know if the country is crumbly hes going to turn it into rubble not bring it up Dixie Chicks are terrible |
1/25/2009 |
| ILUVDC | I can't believe this MAD MOM. I also have a family member in Afganistan right now. I spoke with him on facebook last night. I am canadian and we are helping fight this "supposed war " Bush had made comments that if Canada was not with them, we were against them" What kind of leader threatens another country for not wanting to support this war, that has clearly been a mistake and led to so many deaths from US,CANADA, IRAQ,AFGHAN etc... why would u want a president that leads you into war.. You can't be fooled by the media.. I've been there to Afghan and Iraq. There are so many innocent good people. Obama will bring peace to the US. The US will be strong again, and not because we have soldiers and weapons, because we will be Powerful with peace and CHANGE and growth. Obama is not just smooth words and fake smiles.. He's insightful... a genius. First day in office and he has already working on shutting down torturing people. PEACE IS WHAT WE NEED. Not war and killing and retaliation. PEACE... I would rather have my family member shaking hands with an iraqi or afghan then shooting each other.. and u say ur son would go back if he could? why would anyone ever want to be a war zone? ready to shoot someone? Remember MAD MOM.. peace is what we need in this world. The US in crumbly and Obama will put the pieces back together that Bush took apart...and the war will finish. God bless you for your son, and I wish him nothing but good health and a good life. Take care |

| An American | You all are stupid no one is opposing the 1st amendment the Chicks can say what they want but I don't have to buy there horrible music if they say it your all a bunch of dumb liberals that think Obama is the messiah Toby Kieth may be a Lib like the rest of you but at least he is smart I mean seriously do you have any logical thought in your brains? and the idiot portraying Ann Coulter are you dumb or what no one buys it. | 1/22/2009 |
| JF Boston | Living in a FREE country allows the DC's and TK to voice their opinions. Perhaps if more people had listened to the DC's President Bumble and Vice moron Chaney would not have been elected to a second term. TK is doing a good job of cashing in on all the goose stepping simpletons that have an average IQ that matches their waste size. | 12/21/2008 |
| KeepitrealUSA | We still live in the greatest country in the world . Thank You Dixie Chicks for your support of the 1st amendment right . | 11/27/2008 |
| Mad Mom | As a parent of a wounded soldier who served proudly in Iraq I am truly dissapointed in Toby Keith's support for Obama. Our son would gladly go back if he were able too, and supports John McCain as do we. This is a slap in the face to our sodiers and his listeners! For a man who has stood so proud for our country I have to wonder why he is so misinformed. Obama is not who we need to lead our country. He has smooth words and a fake smile. John McCain has proved his loyalty and is the perfect example that actions speak louder than words. Toby do some more home work! I for one will not be listening to you or the Dixie Chicks. I might add that all of my Heart albums and cd's have joined the trash in my bin outside! |

| Glenn C | Amber this will be the last time I respond due to the fact you don't listen to a word I have sent you, all you here is what you want to here. Like I said before after 9/11 we vowed to stop all terrorist and the people who supported them. The key word here is TERRORIST since you didn't get it the first two times. I never said they where working together, I said they where all terrorist. I don't care if they are secularist or fundamentalist they all need to be taken out. All you do is skirt around that fact and like I said before you are one of those people that always want to blame someone other than them.It also sounds like you think we deserve what happen on 9/11 and if that is so shame on you. It seems like your defence is to try to put people down when they don't agree with you. It is obvious that you only repeat what you hear from the news stations you listed above which are all left wing. |
9/22/2008 |
| herb | omg, i just saw that toby is voting for obama! i might start listening to his music again! | 9/19/2008 |
| Amber | Glenn, you must be getting your news from Fox News Channel, because you don't know what you are talking about. FYI, I get my info from a VARIETY of sources--CNN, PBS, NPR, MSNBC, BBC, CBC, Reuters, etc.. Perhaps you should try it. It's obvious that you have a very limited view of the world. "What I said is that they supported terrorist and once 9/11 occured we vowed to do everything we could to stop them. Which means the ones that support them such as Saddam." The problem, Glenn, is that Saddam and al-Qaeda had no connection. None. Saddam was a secularist. al-Qaeda is a fundamentalist organization. bin Laden held Saddam in contempt because he was not a devout fundamentalist. Even bin Laden thought Saddam was a dog, for different reasons than we did. Thanks for playing. |
9/18/2008 |
| Glenn C | Amber it is obvious that you need to learn something, I NEVER SAID THEY WHERE CONNECTED TO 9/11! What I said is that they supported terrorist and once 9/11 occured we vowed to do everything we could to stop them. Which means the ones that support them such as Saddam. It is obvious that you get all you information from CNN and other outlets such as this. I on the other hand have been out there and seen some of my informaion first hand and get the rest from reasearch I have done. One thing I do know is that no matter who the president was or is we need to make sure that we take care of these people on there land and not on our shores. If don't think that Saddam was part of that terrorism you need to get out of the coma and learn that these people will not stop trying to hurt us. In there eyes we and that includes you are evil. It seems no matter what you will still want to blame someone other than the people that want to see you and I wiped off the face of this erath! | 9/16/2008 |
| Amber | Glenn, you seem to be ignoring the fact that Iraq never attacked us. Iraq had no connection to 9/11. Iraq posed no threat to us. Anyone who suggest that there was a connection between Iraq and 9/11 has been brainwashed. Even Dick Cheney has acknowledged that there was no link. It's pretty obvious that you are getting all of your information from Fox News Channel. Wake up and learn something about the world. | 9/12/2008 |
| Glenn C | Amber you say you support the troops, but it seems that you disagree in the way they keep you free. If you where to ask the men and women in the war if they thought that it was needed they would say yes. So in my opion the way you support them is to trust in there decision's and actions that they make to keep us safe. When it comes to the decision to go to war it takes more than President Bush, it takes a vote by Congress. Also you must have forget that Clinton had Bin Laden but was pressured by the saudi's to release him. So he elected not to do what was needed, knowing that he was planning something against us. So you see it is in Clinton's lap. Clinton's whole administation had something to do with it. The fact that they didn't let the intelligence agency's to communicate information between each other along with a host of other things that where done wrong. The fact remains that these people are thought t ohate us from the time they are born and this started before we where born. So this is not something that just started. There is nothing that Clinton or Bush did to create this. There have been several attacks before 9/11, this is not something that just started also. It also has been proven that Saddam was suppling them with safe hadden, equipment, and money. You know he was planning something also. If you do some research you will find that these attacks have been going on for years and it has nothing to do with oil. In ther belief you and I need to be eliminated. SO WHEN YOU SAY SOMETHING LIKE WAHT SHE SAID you compromise what the troops are doing in my opion. It seems that you are just reading off a CNN telepromter when you say some of the things you say. |

| Amber | Glenn, thank you for your service to our country. Contrary to what many within the power structure of the republican party would have you believe, those of us who are moderate or liberal love this country as well. We also salute the contributions and sacrifices made by our men and women in uniform. We know that they keep us free. That's the main reason that I disagreed with our invasion of Iraq and why I want the war to end. Our troops should never have been sent over there. In my opinion, anyone who REALLY supports the troops wants to bring them home. I think it was correct for Natalie so say WHAT she said WHERE she said it. It is important for people around the world to realize that not all Americans support the policies of this administration. And if things had been done right in the first place, there NEVER would have BEEN a 9-11. Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, and Rice were so focused on Iraq in 2001 that they totally ignored the threat from Al-Qaeda. They ignored a report that said "Bin Laden determined to attack US" and even outlined the use of passenger planes as missiles. That's in Bush's lap, not Clinton's! Finally, if you think that our invasion of Iraq has made us safer, you are right in the short term. In the long term, it will make things gravely unsafe for our country. By "fighting them on their land instead of ours," we have made an entire generation of people in the Middle East anti-American and increased membership in terrorist groups like Al-Qaeda. You need to understand that Iraq posed no threat to us whatsoever. Saddam Hussein, as evil as he was, had NO connection to bin Laden or Al-Qaeda. Bush was the best thing that ever happened to bin Laden, and vice versa. I respectfully ask that you educate yourself on the issue. |

| Glenn C | I just found this site and don't normaly take part in chat rooms, but I have to say Mike have you ever fought are signed up to fight for this Country. As a person who has been to war for your freedoms, I don't judge a persons patriotism by if you have served or not. It is sad that the people who abuse the freedoms they have are not willing to stand up and fight for what they claim is there rights. Amder, it's not so much that they said what they said, but where thay said it at. Just because you have the right to say what you want you should also have respect to know when and where to do so. If things where done the way you'll wanted 9-11 wouldn't have been the last attack on our shores. If you don't think that what President Bush has done is what stopped that then you need to get educated. It is better ot fight them on there land than ours. Why in the world should we feel bad for being one the strongest Country's in the world. I for one am proud to have been born & raised here and as a person who went to war for those freedoms do take offense to what the dixie chicks said. The funny thing is that you'll probable think that Bill Clinton did nthing wrong. | 8/26/2008 |
| Mike | Toby is an ignorant hillbilly, its time to class up country music and the DC's do just that. TK isnt man enough to fight for the US of A but he still thinks hes a patriot. He just gets rich off of tragedy! | 8/18/2008 |
| Amber | So Rick Thomas, you don't like the Dixie Chicks, so you think they should be "booted" out of America? Wow! I don't know where to begin. Are you one of the 29% who support the failed policies of Bush? Dissent makes our democracy stronger; mindless agreement makes us weaker. | 8/18/2008 |
| Rick Thomas | Dixie Chicks , can't stand them, any of them. Should be booted out of the US! | 8/9/2008 |
| Amber | J Griffin, the fact that you voted for Bush twice makes me doubt your judgment. Anyone who voted for Bush is just as responsible as he is for the problems he has caused. The republican party would disappear is voters took the time to educate themselves. | 8/4/2008 |
| j griffin | i dont agree with Bush and i voted for him twice , but i agree even less with Maines. she is legend in her own mind. | 7/24/2008 |
| kimberly | i think they are awesome. They should not be ex'ed because they have a different view. You all need to back off. This is crazy. For those of you that think they should bow down and kiss butt, open your eyes. Do you live your life or say things that everyone else is ok with? I think not. The best part of living in the USA is that we have the freedom to say as we wish. If you dont like what you hear than dont buy the music! It is really that simple. You all need to grow up and back off. They are people just like us, the only thing different is they have a spot light on them all the time with people 2 steps behind them waiting for them to say or do something that someone might just get a little upset over. and if i did not hit that nerve enough as im typing this i am playing not ready to make nice. Yall have a good day | 7/11/2008 |
| FUTK | cause they did nuting i thought one of the rights as a american was the freedom of speech so yeh i bet 99% of all american hate bush rite now cause of him starting a war from bordom he needs to think before he dose something so yeh toby kieth stay in your own little corner because no one in va likes u FUTK | 6/26/2008 |
| Casey | the dixie chicks are brave, funny and deserve more credit than they get. | 5/31/2008 |
| Miss America | So "real Americans" think that people who express views they don't like have no right to speak, should be banned from the radio, and punished as "traiters" (sic)? This thread has been an education, to be sure. |

| i fool u | If a piece of cake is 8000 feet tall and the titanic is driving at it at 1999 miles per hour, how many seconds did it take for the moon to crash into the sun, if the earth is in between them heading toward the moon at 1500000000 mile an hour. And a mouse dressed up like a knight stopped lord Voldemort from killing Mario after Mario killed Voldemort's best friend, the pied piper. Plus you have to remember that if Judge Judy jr. killed the muffin man at 12:00, the moon will swerve to the right at 1500000000000000 miles per second and will hit the earth at 8:00, causing mass destruction in1/3 of the world’s continents. How will a 1500 lb slab of cheese carved like Oprah save the day? If Oprah can not save the day, then write a statement why Obama is a terrible presidential candidate. And a 15 page essay about why the Loch Ness monster is to fat to fit into the millennium falcon and eat the piece of cheese that got stuck in Barney’s ear after he killed a zebra from 15000 feet away WITH FLAMING MIND BULLETS OF FURY, but the zebra dodged the surprise attack and ran of to the north pole and rode to the moon on Rudolf. | 4/8/2008 |
| dare to be free | How can anyone take someone seriously who supports George Bush? Keith you are a dick, dixi-chicks 'ya all great gals'.......& proof that not all country music stars are stupid!!! | 3/28/2008 |
| Amber | Little Bug, what are you talking about? Toby Keith supported Bush's invasion of Iraq. As a result, over 4000 brave Americans are dead, God only knows how many Iraqi citizens are dead, and we are paying over $3 per gallon for gas. Toby Keith sniffed $$$ and played on the ignorance of country music fans. Natalie spoke out against Bush and country music tried to kill her career. She's got a lot more guts than Toby. And a lot more talent, too! | 3/22/2008 |
| Little Bug | People open your eyes. TOBY'S THE ONE! Toby didn't do ANYTHING WRONG! Ok Hey just was being heard. Yeah he's a smartalleck in his songs but he gets a point across right?! Not only that he's not a jerk like Natalie from the Dixie Chicks. | 3/12/2008 |
| princess | i love the dixie chicks and i would never take toby keiths side | 2/14/2008 |
| Amber | Sarah, what language was your post written in? | 1/15/2008 |
| sarah | TOby keith is the best just because of that song doesn't mean anything bad he wrote that cuz his dad dies on maech 24th 2001 and the attacks in 2001 in september maybe people who are the dixie chick should listen to the song and get to knwo the song and knwo where toby keith i coming from i do so TOby keith alll the was totally I look up to him very much | 1/6/2008 |
| Courtney | Personaly I love the dixie chicks music and this is coming from a 12 year old and I think people should have told toby keith to shut up. | 1/6/2008 |
| nakita | i say you go girl to natalie, i love how people can speak there minds...i dunno why they were told to shut up and sing, i say to the fans who turned there backs on the dixie chicks, go and get screwed...these girls rock my world and there music will be in my life and my daughters and years to come.... | 1/5/2008 |
| Amber | Marine: What are you trying to say? Shirley: Maybe you need to meet some more intelligent people. Jay: Wrapping yourself in the flag does not make you a patriotic American. Maybe if you paid attention to what's going on in the world, you would realize how much Bush's lies have hurt this country. |
1/4/2008 |
| Jay Schoby | I used to like the Chicks. Not anymore. They hate our President. Shame on them. Toby Keith is a patriotic American, courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue. | 12/26/2007 |
| Shirley O'Brien | All I can say is people are either crazy or Toby Keith fans haven't been to this web-site. There is really no competion, I don't even know anyone that likes the Dixie Chicks! | 11/24/2007 |
| Marine | yeah so i am a marine and i think that Toby is the man because yall have no idea that even if he is doing it for himself for the sales when you have people who stand for the very thing you are fighting for i helps you believe you are doing something good and helps you keep fighting so all of you can take the dixie chicks. | 11/21/2007 |
| Claude | Toby Keith is not a patriot. His father died almost a year before he even wrote that "patriotic" song. He wrote the song to capitalize from the sales that would rush in because of the recent events of 9/11. It wasn't a coincidence. USA gets attacked, people feel patriotic, write a song that will sell millions to the morons who've made themselves known to be mindless followers. Well, it worked, didn't it? Natalie Maines spoke her mind. She did not attack the USA or Texas or Americans. She spoke out against the moron that you other morons voted for. "... we're ashamed that the president of the United States is from Texas." Correct me if I'm wrong, but that does not say at all that Texas is bad. Nor does it mention ANYTHING about the soldiers, let alone in a negative or unsupportive context. Did Bill Clinton send thousands of soldiers to their deaths? Did Bill Clinton lie about the reasons for sending people to their deaths? I do not support the war. I think the biggest problem in the middle-east is the foreign troops that are in the middle-east. They will fight, they will always fight until they decide to stop fighting. An outsider going in with bombs and guns blazing will not change their attitudes, and it certainly will not come close to changing their cultural or religious beliefs. Bush is a moron for thinking he can force a government upon another nation and have the nerve to call it "constitutional". Yep, them there Iraqis have the constitutional right to have my beliefs, so lets go make them! Here's a few quotes for you all to ponder (Ann Coulter, that means to think, you should try it some time, hmm?). "The government that believes its citizens too immature for the truth is itself too immature for power." - Unkown "Work and struggle and never accept an evil that you can change." - Andre Gide "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." - Martin Luther King Jr. "The price of freedom of religion, or of speech, or of the press, is that we must put up with a good deal of rubbish." - Robert Jackson "Those who desire to give up Freedom in order to gain Security, will not have, nor do they deserve, either one." - Thomas Jefferson (brings to mind the Patriot Act, no?) |

| ann coulter | gary_michael, you sorry p.o.s., how dare you mention me. like all of the other jews, you need to be perfected. god, i am so hungover from this weekend. | 10/15/2007 |
| Michael-Gary | There have been a lot of stupid comments posted here in the 4+ years that this board has been active. However, the one by "Freedom" comes very close to taking the prize for the most stupid one. Freedom, instead of asking why the Dixie Chicks don't go to the war zone, why don't you ask why George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, and the other chicken hawks who are quick to send other peoples sons and daughters into this illegal war don't go fight themselves? While you're at it, ask them why they didn't serve their country during the Vietnam era. Also, ask Fred Thompson, Mitt Romney, and Rudy Giuliani why they didn't go to Vietnam, and why their kids aren't fighting in this war that they support. And maybe you could ask the Bush twins. And maybe Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Ann Coulter, and those airheads on "Fox and Friends" can tell you why they repeat the lies from the Republican echo chamber but aren't willing to lay their lives on the line for a war they say they believe so much in. You miss the point. The Dixie Chicks spoke out against this war criminal of a President and his pointless war when hardly anyone else did. Anyone who has paid attention to what has happened since the war started knows that this war was a terrible mistake. WAKE UP!!! |
10/14/2007 |
| Freedom | Dixie chicks not free speech; why don't they fight in the warzone; then they maybe can have an opinion. They haven't fought for anyone's freedom. | 9/30/2007 |
| Bob Ainsworth | The Dixie Chicks especially Natalie Maines maybe had some intuition on their side when stating that they were ashamed that George Bush was from Texas. George Bush has since proven to be the least popular president of the United States since polling began. He also ignored the United Nations and took it upon himself to engage in war with Iraq on the premise that they were producing or storing weapons of mass destruction but none were ever found. It amazes me that the USA being the greatest power in the world should have such poor intelligence. I know that it is great to have pride in one's country but political leaders should not be followed blindly. There were probably people that would have been offended with any negative remarks about Richard Nixon but his popularity was still greater than George Bush's polls. I think Richard Nixon's dishonesty was less than that of George Bush. George Bush has over 3,000 young Americans killed in a war that cannot be won . Would Americans continue to fight on by whatever means possible if a foreign army occupied their land? Isn't that part of the reason they maintain the right to bear arms? I would like to point out that the war is also a r that religious war that has a history going back to the Crusades. This war will never end until the foreigners leave the country and then the fighting will continue amongst the Iraqians. | 9/14/2007 |
| Marly | Why doesn't anyone mention what Toby Keith did. What right did he have to cut and paste a photo Natalie, and place her in an embrace with Saddam? After he pulled that stunt, I trashed the CD's I had of him. | 9/9/2007 |
| Michael-Gary | I wonder if Ann is drunk yet this weekend. | 8/24/2007 |
| ann coulter | you should shut up, angelic. the sound of your voice is making me sick, and i can't take anymore. i have spent this entire weekend alone. all of my friends on the internet said they would come visit me but they didn't. i had to go out and get more vodka, grey goose, my favorite, even though it is from france, and i hate the french because they didn't support us in the war against iraq, and i really wasn't in any shape to drive, but i couldn't make it through the weekend without my gray goose. does anyone want to chat with me? | 8/19/2007 |
| Angelic | Tobey Keith really should just "Shut up and Sing" because every time he speaks he sounds like a dumb redneck. | 8/8/2007 |
| ann coulter | another lonely saturday night. i need to get some more vodka. does anybody want to chat tonight? | 8/4/2007 |
| LITTLE CHICK | i love the dixie chicks i love there music and i reckon they've got every write to say what they want so toby kieth should keep his bloody nose out of it so DIXIE CHICKS I SAY DO WHAT YOU DO AND SAY WHAT YA SAY AND DO IT WITH ATTIDUDE GIRL | 7/22/2007 |
| julie | The dixie chick deserve to be able to say what they want and i am on there side. Toby keith has not been dissed or boycotted for speaking his mind so why should the dixie chicks. NAT 4 PRESIDENT!!!!! | 6/16/2007 |
| alex | the dixie chicks are way better than toby keith. toby keith is a pure but hole. | 6/9/2007 |
| greg | Have you listened to Taking the Long Way? It's nothing short of a masterpiece and solidifies the Dixie Chicks as true crossover artists. They are simply too talented to be limited by the parameters of country or pop music. They do both exceptionally well. | 4/24/2007 |
| ,lklj | Dixie Chicks rocks | 4/23/2007 |
| NIchola | still lovin' the chicks :) | 4/10/2007 |
| ann coulter | gary_michael just mind your own business. i bet you are a faggot too. leave me alone. you don't know me. keep your distance from me queer boy. charlotte, i didn't ask for your opinion so keep out of it. i don't care what you think. doogie, learn to write. all of you liberals should shut up! where did all of the nice people go? they were here a few years ago. they listened to me and they were nice. |
3/19/2007 |
| Doogie | Looks like the Chicks were right. I'll bet there are a lot more Americans who are ashamed of Bush, now that the truth is Known and there are so many young Americans dead because of him. Toby seen an opportunity to capitolize on the patriotism angle and went for it. He did forget however, that the freedom of speech that the Chicks exercised is what many Americans have died defending in the past. |
3/18/2007 |
| Michael-Gary | I agree, Charlotte. And even if Ann has an issue with the French, there is no reason to use a derogatory term that many people find offensive. If you look back over Ann's posting history, you'll see that it's not surprising. She's a real trainwreck, just like Candie Queen/Country Chic' during the summer. I hope they all get help. | 3/17/2007 |
| Charlotte | Wow Ann, way to show your own ignorance about another country. I think if anything this forum has proved people from 1 country (in this case the US) are not all the same (Dixie Chicks being the polar opposite of Toby Keith). You may want to try not to lump all french people into one group and say you hate them all (and no, i'm not French). | 3/15/2007 |
| ann coulter | what's everybody's favorite vodka. i like grey goose, even though it's from france. i hate france and the french people. they're all faggots. | 3/15/2007 |
| tex | I read with interest the incredible anger Dustin has towards the Chicks. It is common in men who overcompensate in their support for those against women (i.e. toby keith) and their rage against women (the Chicks) to be dealing with latent (suppressed) homosexual tendancies. This causes abnormal fits of rage and vengance. Dustin; trade in your pick up for a bike and get in touch with your struggling feminine side. If you can't see it you are the only one. | 3/10/2007 |
| keith sux | The Chicks exercised freedom of speech and toby keith behaved in as the little, simple-minded, right wing puppet he is. Does he realize his daddy would not have died in the war if we had peace? | 3/10/2007 |
| ChixFan! | Here's what that untalented Toby Keith said in 2002 about Natalie Maines: ""I’ll bury her. She has never written anything that’s been a hit." Natalie wrote a hit, and it's back up to #1 on iTunes and the album is #1 again too. The song she helped write also won the Grammy for Song of the Year, which is a songwriter's award. How many of those have you won, Toby? You haven't even won a Grammy in a country category! The only people who look more stupid than Toby Keith (and Bush) right now are the people who criticized the Dixie Chicks in 2003. GOOD RIDDANCE TO THEM ALL. LONG LIVE THE DIXIE CHICKS! |
2/14/2007 |
| Dan | One thing I've always wondered about the early days of the dispute - on the t-shirt where it said F.U.T.K., what did the U stand for? I mean, everyone assumed those 4 letters meant a certain thing, but wouldn't that be F.Y.T.K.? | 2/12/2007 |
| Charlotte | All i can say is the 2007 Grammy awards last night said it all. True talent, class, intelligence and style wins in the end. BTW where was Mr Keith last night? I didn't hear his name mentioned at all...is he still in the music industry? | 2/12/2007 |
| ChixFan! | Five Grammy's for the Dixie Chicks, including Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Album of the Year! They even won the Grammy for Country Album of the Year! (Hah hah!) I think that's now a total of 13 Grammy's the Chick's have won in their career. And how many has that self-promoting chicken-hawk Toby Keith ever won? Zero, zip, zilch, nada. None! On top of that, Natalie Maines was completely justified in the comments she made in March 2003. We should all be ashamed that Bush is our President. Those of you who refuse to see what he is doing to our country and the irreparable harm he has already done need to wake up before it's too late. |
2/12/2007 |
| TK4EVER | COME ON PEOPLE! CAN SOMEONE P-L-E-A-S-E TELL ME WHERE I CAN FIND SOME SHIRTLESS PICS OF TOBY? I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR YEARS WITHOUT ANY LUCK! PLEASE, A LINK OR ANYTHING WOULD BE MOST APPRECIATED! THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!! | 2/11/2007 |
| pixie14 | Free speech is righ they can voth diagree about eachothers music but i think dixie chicks are better ebcaue they dont just sing about america . they apeal more to all of the country fans not just the american country fans | 1/25/2007 |
| ann coulter | i hate the winter. it is so depressing. it makes me sad. does anyone else here feel the same way? it makes me want to drink. | 1/22/2007 |
| Mud On My Tires | P.S. ..MG I am a woman I like country music and enjoy letting others express their opinions and i don't attack them about it when i disagree (which is more than you and Dustin can say, attacking some poor person CC), and i watch the news and keep up with world events. | 12/12/2006 |
| Mud On My Tires | hello everybody. I think that NM was right and i support her all the way but i have always been and always be a fan of them both. Rhonda does have a valid point though, other artists such as P!NK, have made songs and remarks against the president, why aren't they metioned through out the board? | 12/12/2006 |
| ann coulter | the pain never ends, does it? i wish i could make the pain stop. a drink would help. | 11/28/2006 |
| TK4EVER | DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY SHIRTLESS PICS OF TOBY? I THINK HE IS SO CUTE, SUCH A CUDDLY TEDDY BEAR! I WOULD LOVE TO CUDDLE WITH HIM ON A COLD WINTER NIGHT AND FEEL HIS BIG STRONG ARMS AROUND ME AND HIS HAIRY CHEST NEXT TO ME. PLEASE HELP ME FIND SOME PICTURES! THANK YOU! | 11/17/2006 |
| Glenn | Toby K. is yesterday's news. The majority of Americans see Bush for what he is: A LIAR! The rest are totally clueless. VOTE FOR A CHANGE THIS TUESDAY! AMERICA'S FUTURE DEPENDS ON IT! |
11/4/2006 |
| Chris | Toby Keith is awesome. | 10/21/2006 |
| Dustin | I like this guy!! | 10/14/2006 |
| Michael-Gary | TonyD/DebbieC: If you really believe in your ideas, you shouldn't need to create two names to voice them. You could have at least put a space between the first name and initial in one of the names to make it seem two different people were posting. Maybe the Dixie Chicks have had to cancel some of their large venue concerts, but they have also sold out many of them. Also, their latest album has sold 2 million copies, not up to their usual standards, but pretty darn good considering how many country stations won't play their music. Censorship is alive and well in George Bush's America. Rhonda, you make a very good point about other artists speaking up against Bush. Pink, Bruce Springsteen, Ben Harper, Tom Petty, and a few others come to mind. The difference is that the Dixie Chicks are in a different genre. Many country music fans (a) do not appreciate hearing a woman express an opinion, and (b) are not as aware of world events as much of the remainder of the population. Maybe that's why Bush is still popular in the South, while just about everyone else in the rest of the country is seeing through his lies. The irony is that Toby Keith reportedly has expressed concern that invading Iraq is a mistake. However, he knows that if he says so publicly, his fans will stop buying his records and coming to his concerts. That's the difference between DC and TK. The Dixie Chicks are women of conviction, while Toby Keith is a money-hungry opportunist. And all of his fans are going along with it like sheep. |
10/9/2006 |
| Rhonda | It's not like the Dixie Chicks is the only one singing or dissagreeing with the President. What about "PINK?" | 10/6/2006 |
| Dustin | P.S to that CC bTch....I DO LISTEN TO COUNTRY SO OPEN YOUR EYES AND READ WHAT I SAY, THEN, AFTER YOU DECIDE THAT I AM RIGHT, SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND PUT A FCKING DCK IN YOUR BUM. I HATE BTCHES LIKE YOU, WELL IM SURE YOU WILL HAVE A COMMENT TO THIS SEEINGS ON HOW YOUR TYPE ALWAYS DOES. AT LEAST NOT ALL AMERICANS ARE IDIOTS, PS I LOVE GREENDAY, AMERICAN IDIOTS.........BUSH IS G*Y EVERYONE WHO VOTES FOR HIM SHOULD DIE | 10/5/2006 |
| Dustin | Hmmm lets see Dixie Chicks - Do not support people dying so that bush (notice he doesn't even deserve a capital B) Can profit from over seas oil!!! Toby Keith is also a "supporter" of Anti-Canadians, Which helped him lose millions of dollars. I don't think america would appreciate it if a canadian band was playing at a concert and told all the americans to stand up, then proceed to say that they would not play unless the yanks left!!! F.U.T.K I would wear that shirt proudly!!! If i ever saw him i would break his face, the little puss would probly sue me. Pathetic little man. GO DIXIE CHICKS!! | 10/5/2006 |
| DebbieC | I respect anyone's right to free speech but not when I'm paying to be entertained. Apparently I'm not alone, the Dixie chickens have had to cancel there large venue concerts. I guess that speaks tons! How's Toby Keith doing? | 10/2/2006 |
| TonyD | Dixie Chicks should start looking for a day job. They should stick to music and entertaining. If I buy a ticket to a concert I don't want to hear their political views but I would never buy another DC CD or buy a concert ticket. | 10/2/2006 |
| Grady | I respect Ms. Maines for speaking her mind. I wish more Americans had done so when this total failure of a president led us into war based upon his lies. I am ashamed Bush is the president of our great country. | 10/2/2006 |
| corey | hey tkfan, it's "YOU'RE pathetic," not "YOUR pathetic." YOU'RE ignorant. no wonder you like toby keith! |
9/28/2006 |
| Joe K. | Anybody who thinks Toby Keith is hot is either blind or desperate. I bet he is infested with crabs. | 9/26/2006 |
| Claudette | Toby Keith is a no-talent redneck. He realizes most of his fans are ignorant and he appeals to that base. And BASE is the perfect word for them! | 9/25/2006 |
| TKFAN | Natalie Maines, yeah I threw away your cd. The one and only I ever was stupid enough to buy. I replaced the spot with a TK CD. "NMYP" Hey, Natalie Maines Your Pathetic. | 9/25/2006 |
| Mary Lyons | If this were a presidential election that 44% would make Keith a winner .. right? No wonder This administration is syphoning dollars away from education... soon there will be nobody left who can do the math. | 9/18/2006 |
| carebear14 | i agree with this David from MI ( i was born there) dude. Shut up, quit fighting and make your music. keep the peace. carebear. | 9/16/2006 |
| David from MI | I am confused as to how this whole thing got so outta hand. Just shut up and make the music. All of the parties (ie the Dixie Chicks, Toby Keith, both of their fans, etc.) just accepted the fact that people disagree and have different opinions, maybe we wouldn't have this trashing of other people, their beliefs, and their lives. | 9/14/2006 |
| someone | i used to like the dixie chicks but because of the toby keith thing i HATE them. FUDC | 9/11/2006 |
| Savanna | I LOVE YOU TOBY!!!!! You are so hot and such a man. I'm a big fan.Keep writing your songs for all of your fans...Great Job. # 1 Fan....Louisiana |
9/8/2006 |
| Leslie | What did the President have to say about the comments ... from Natalie or Toby?freedom of speech for USA citizen does not end at the border because you are still a USA citizen .I like both artists then & now!!! | 9/6/2006 |
| tk4ever | Hi everybody!!!!! It's so good to see this board is still up and operating!!!!! Does anyone have any shirtless pictures of Toby????? I have been looking for years for some but I just can't find any!!!!! I would be so grateful if someone could tell me where I could find some!!!!! I dream about how hairy his chest must be and what it would be like to sleep with my head on his chest!!!!! Thanks everyone!!!!!! | 9/6/2006 |
| alexandra | Toby Kieth needs to get a thicker skin. If he is going to freak out b/c the dixie chicks hated his song, whats he going to do when someone else critiques him? | 9/5/2006 |
| alexandra | I think the Dixie Chicks are fearless. Who hasn't been disappointed in Bush and who hasn't wanted to speak out and had their oppinions heard? That is all they did. And they didn't back down, they appologized for their wording but stood by what believe. I think that is what free speech is all about. | 9/5/2006 |
| Rachel | I prefer the Dixie Chicks music most definitely but prefer to hear Toby Keith's opinions. | 8/31/2006 |
| Michael-Gary | Did Ann leave us for good? I can only hope that she found a nice big bottle of vodka and crawled into it. | 8/31/2006 |
| Boomer | Newsflash, Tyler! The Dixie Chicks are NOT communists. It's funny how conservatives always fall back on that "communist" label when they disagree with someone. It's a lot easier to call names than it is to defend a failure of a president. The Dixie Chicks spoke up about our corrupt liar of a president and his illegal war when everyone else was following along like sheep. As it turns out, the Chicks were right and Bush led us into one of the darkest chapters in American history. It's sad that you are too blind to see that, and unfortunately you are not alone. Why don't you wake up and see what's going on in the world? | 8/30/2006 |
| Tyler | F the dixie chicks, theyre a buncha anti American communists | 8/29/2006 |
| emily | Toby Keith is a redneck idiot. Yeah he can sing about this great war were in but send his children over there and let them be killed for no reason,the country has done nothing to us, and he will be singing a different song! | 8/27/2006 |
| vets74 | The Chicks are the best we've got going against fascism-in-America. God bless 'em. | 8/27/2006 |
| Michael-Gary | Are we talking to ourselves now, Ann? I knew it was just a matter of time before you imploded. | 8/7/2006 |
| ann coulter | ann, why don't you go off with country chic' and candie queen. you are as much of a loser as they are. | 8/6/2006 |
| ann coulter | you have no soul, meg. i don't need your advice. you're worthless and you need to get a life. you're a smelly, stinky, greasy, nasty, horrible pig. | 8/3/2006 |
| meg | ann, you have a diseased soul. why don't you go find country chic' and be her friend. It sounds like you both need a friend. | 8/1/2006 |
| ann coulter | you have a disease, meg. it's eating you up and making you lie about things you don't know about. you're a pig. a nasty pig and you're going to pay for your sins. | 7/29/2006 |
| meg | ann, why don't you go get a room? you're such a skank you wouldn't be able to get anyone to go to the room with you. at least you always have your buddy jack daniels, right? | 7/27/2006 |
| ann coulter | why don't you and gary_michael get a room, meg. you spend all of your time here because no man will talk to you in the real world. am i right? you're an internet skank. | 7/26/2006 |
| meg | ann you have some serious issues. you're the one who needs help. i pity you and your drinking. instead of making these rambling posts you should go to a doctor. now! | 7/21/2006 |
| ann coulter | you don't know me gary_michael. i bet you got beaten up on the playground all the time because of your stupid name. mandy doesn't need your sympathy. she needs a good drink, like some vodka or gin or scotch. so why don't you stay out of this. i am just wondering, though, what do your friends call you? do they call you gary, michael, gary michael, or wussy boy? that's what i will call you. wussy boy. | 7/20/2006 |
| Michael-Gary | You're a sad excuse for a human being, Ann. Mandy's post is an obvious cry for help, and you dismissed her. Go drink yourself into a stupor, OK? | 7/18/2006 |
| ann coulter | tell it to someone who cares, mandy. i don't care about you or your issues. mind your own business, gary_michael. i don't need your analysis. your parents were on an acid trip when they named you. dear god, i need a drink so badly. can anyone help me? |
7/16/2006 |
| Michael-Gary | Did you just suffer some kind of loss, Mandy? If you are having a hard time dealing with it, I recommend that you find someone to talk to. I can tell that you are in pain, and it will help you if you talk to someone. Don't keep it inside. | 7/15/2006 |
| meg | i don't check this site for a few days and it goes out of control. i think ann and mandy are friends of CC. mandy if you are real, what are you talking about? | 7/13/2006 |
| Mandy | Smell the coffee, watch the bright lights, cross that road, take that challenge, live your life. I am still alive. The city was oddly quiet this morning as I walked to work. Business as usual. But something is not right. The sky is still blue but not as bright, the slight haze of clouds or smoke blur the vision or is it the tears that sting my eyes. Yesterday morning the world was a beautiful place. Today I am not so sure. I can not imagine how my life will be now. Life is all too short. We need to live for today. With no regrets. We had a fantastic weekend. Watching the tennis. The world is an amazing place. We never know where our paths will take us. We need to enjoy the ride. Stop along the way. Take our time. Remember what is really important to us. As reality sinks slowly into the pit of despair I know sadly I will survive. | 7/13/2006 |
| CLARENCE | MAN, YOU PEOPLE ARE WHACKED! I LOVE READING ALL THESE THINGS YALL TALK ABOUT. THIS IS THE BEST THING ON THE INTER NET! | 7/13/2006 |
| Michael-Gary | I guess Ann woke up on the wrong side of the bed today, or maybe she's lonely and needs a drink? | 7/12/2006 |
| ann coulter | you can bite me, gary michael. what kind of dumb name is that anyway? were your parents hippies? where did all the happy people go? i used to come here and they would talk to me, but now they are gone. | 7/12/2006 |
| Michael-Gary | Meg, I was just saying that you should take it easy on Country Chic'. It's like somebody else said, she could be a child living in the ghetto. However, I have to wonder how many children living in the ghetto even know who the Dixie Chicks and Toby Keith are, or if they have access to a computer. Anyway, thanks for taking it easy on Country Chic' because she really does seem to have some problems, and I hope she gets help for them. Speaking of someone needing help, I wonder if that is the real Ann Coulter who posts on here. | 7/11/2006 |
| ann coulter | is someone selling popsicles? i like mine with vodka. god i hurt. | 7/10/2006 |
| CF | I am through with this popcicle stand. lata yal'ls | 7/9/2006 |
| meg | M-G, I agree that CC is unstable. i am through talking about her and her issues. CF, congratulations on your post. you seem very mature! |
7/9/2006 |
| Country Fan | btw....my real name is Ashlie and i want 2 b president of the US 1 day | 7/9/2006 |
| Country Fan | Thank you to everyone but pleaz feel free to say what you really think you dont really have to take it easy on me just cuz of my age. | 7/9/2006 |
| Michael-Gary | Good post Country Fan. Also, I think Meg should take it easy on Country Chic'. She is obviously unstable. | 7/7/2006 |
| no one specail | CF seems like you have a few fans yourself! LOL........I like the music equally but i agree wit the chicks and NM. | 7/7/2006 |
| whatever | your welcome. | 7/7/2006 |
| meg | i agree with CF as far as his/her comments about NM. i don't agree that TK's music is better, but i respect his/her opinion. as for CC, she was the one who got all defensive and started the attitude. i am not the only one who noticed it. i'd rather keep this on topic instead of talking about her issues. thanks! | 7/6/2006 |
| whatever | oh...and when you comment on me pleaz leave cc out of it. | 7/5/2006 |
| whatever | CF is very wise beyond his/her years, Meg dont you agree? | 7/5/2006 |
| MyLifeNotYour's | I agree wit country fan we are here to leave an opinion and to comment on the article not to fight over whose opinion is rite or wrong. Meg and CC take it somewhere else. My Opinion: mostly the same as CF. | 7/5/2006 |
| Country Fan | I am not here to comment on the ongoing fued (I think MAY have come to an end) between CC and Meg/Michael-Gary, I am here to comment on the article and to give my opinion. I prefer Toby Keiths MUSIC over the Chicks but i think that what the NM and the chicks did is a very noble and recognizable act of foreseeing into the future cuz the point that NM was trying to make has certenly come true. No one attack me on my pinion pleaz cuz I am only 14 and cant defend it. Thanx Country Fan | 7/5/2006 |
| Candie Queen | ok you got me, but before you ask me to ask CC what her deal is you need to figure out what your deal is. I am done wit you. good luck in life after you get one. Lata. CC | 7/5/2006 |
| meg | proud redneck and candie queen (i.e., the same poster), why don't you ask CC what her deal is? nice try! | 7/3/2006 |
| Proud Redneck | Meg do you know CC? Have You Ever Met Her? How Do You Know If She Is Hostile Or If It Is Just Your Attempt To Start Something That Was Fustrating Her That Caused Her To Cop An Attitude? DWB (Dont Write Back) | 7/3/2006 |
| Candie Queen | Personaly i think that you are in no position to judge or pity her. I also think that you had no right to critisize her opinion bcz message boards are a place to express your opinion without being told your wrong or anything like that . Meg , 4 all you know CC could be a 8 year old girl and living in the ghetto. Dont Respond Please. | 7/3/2006 |
| meg | i don't think CC has issues, she just has a lot of hostility. i pity her. | 7/2/2006 |
| Candie Queen | Why do you think that he/she has issues? | 6/30/2006 |
| Michael-Gary | I think that Country Chic' has issues. | 6/29/2006 |
| meg | why the hostility, CC? | 6/28/2006 |
| Country Chic' | like i said find someone else that wants tolisten to you. CC outie | 6/27/2006 |
| meg | i'm not a dude, CC. you need to read what you say before you press the submit button and leave the attitude out of here! | 6/27/2006 |
| meg | no need to cop an attitude, CC. chill! | 6/23/2006 |
| Country Chic' | I wasnt saying that they are has beens. I was askin how the fact that whether or not they are has beens fit into the message thingy, okay. I dont think they are has beens. learn to read. |
6/22/2006 |
| meg | why are you saying the dixie chicks are has beens, CC? they look like they're doing just fine! go chicks! | 6/21/2006 |
| Country Chic' | Where did the fact that they are has beens come in? | 6/16/2006 |
| Chicks Fan #1 | Uh, how many "has beens" have the #1 album for 2 weeks? | 6/14/2006 |
| Country Chic' | By the way do NE of ya'll even listen to country music...cuz in my opinion if you dont listen you cant have an opinion!!!!!! Everyone has a right to say what they wanna say so everyone just needs to back down and let this thing unravel with whomever comes out on top. and i got the answer to my question earlier... yes they do sing a song about killin a guy named earl. | 6/13/2006 |
| Country Chic' | Dont The Dixie Chicks Sing Somethin About Killin A Guy Named Earl????? Keep on Speakin Ur Peace Toby!!!!! Natalie You Got Guts.....Run With Em'!!!!!! As you can tell i cant make up my mind. | 6/13/2006 |
| ^s^ | hey *r*, courtesy of the red white and blue IS ignorant | 6/5/2006 |
| Primlp | I LOVE THE DIXIE CHICKS!!!!!Rednecks like Toby Keith, Gretchen Wilson and Reba (who by by the way appears to be over-injected with botox), are simply jealous that the Chicks can stand on their own feet and stick to their values. Reba, you look like an aging, wrinkled prune. |
6/1/2006 |
| Rich M | It takes more spine to stand up to the majority and speak one's convictions than to "cash in" on that false patriotism that Keith has done. Shock and Awe was a vulgal dispaly of death and distruction on an inocent people that did nothing to this country. I am ashamed at the way many people have treated this war like it was a sport, and have not taken the time to learn the facts. Good luck Fox News watchers. | 5/21/2006 |
| Foolish fool | Toby Keith stands up for our country whereas the chicks throw insults. Maybe they should get a spine. | 5/21/2006 |
| Alan | Please, please, please guys try to understand the world you and we live in a little more. You bang on about freedom and freedom of speech like its such a wonderful thing but then when somebody exercises that right you call them opinionated. You clearly have freedom of speech also but what you are doing by saying opinionated is negating their right, not commenting on the content of what they say - just that they have said something. Having an opinion is opinionated. Understand your own langague before you commet on others. | 5/6/2006 |
| Danny | I'll take the Chicks over that idiot Toby Keith any day! | 4/23/2006 |
| Drea | I love the Dixie Chicks new song! I just got it on iTunes and all I have to say is I admire them totally. Natalie spoke up about Bush when he was acting in a way that we should have all spoken up about. We need more people like Natalie and fewer like Toby. Hey Toby, why don't you go get drunk and be somebody? | 4/20/2006 |
| gregg | the losers are people like toby keith who believed bush's lies. | 4/4/2006 |
| WALLSCHLAEGER | Toby keep on singing, dont let know let no stupid girls get in your way..and who cares if your a redneck!! yeee-hawww!!! | 3/24/2006 |
| *r* | dixie chicks are losers toby keith has great music and anyone who thinks that courtesy of the red white and blue is ignorant needs to be told straight from me that they are ignorant! | 3/8/2006 |
| pat | i fantasize about toby's hairy chest every night | 2/1/2006 |
| Connor Hikcs | Toby Keith is cool | 1/8/2006 |
| Candice | Toby Keith is all about making money. He'll say what his redneck fanbase want to hear so he can sell his Ford trucks and other things. Sad. Talk about someone who is fake, dishonest, and ruled by his love for money! No wonder he loves the Bush administration, LOL! And one more thing, anyone who would sing a song as stupid as "I Wanna Talk About Me" really has no place criticizing anything the Dixie Chicks sing, does he? | 1/4/2006 |
| Dixiefan4ever | The Dixie Chicks rule. I saw them in concert after NM made her remark, and even then she was fired up and playing great. I've watched Toby Keith too, but he does not impress me. Why is it that people like TK and Gretchen Wilson have made a lotta money, but they can't dress themselves right on TV? Tim Mc Graw put down every other music genre on the AMC awards because according to him" at least in country music. we respect each other". Yeah, I bet the Chicks are just feeling *your* love, genius. You can make fun of Gwen Steafni, Mariah, and Missy Elliott, but at least they dress classy on and off-camera. | 1/3/2006 |
| Cat | Toby Keith is an ignorant redneck. | 12/12/2005 |
| steve | toby keith is an ignorant hick. end of story. country music=sell out anyone? |
10/30/2005 |
| Cassandra Coats | I think Toby is nothing less than amazing I love Toby | 10/26/2005 |
| fan | i used to support this war, but everything i read and hear has led me to conclude that we were lied to by our president and the republicans. this war is wasting billions of dollars but even worse thousands of lives. i still am a fan of toby but i respect natalie a lot more than i used to. to those of you who are saying she should keep her mouth shut, maybe you should open your eyes. as someone who was angry at her but now realizes that more of us should have spoken up and out against this war, i hope that we never lose the right to speak against our leaders. |
10/9/2005 |
| Janet | I love Natalie, and anyone who criticizes her for speaking her mind should be ashamed. | 10/6/2005 |
| Lauren | Toby keith is the best!! and Natalie needs to learn to keep her mouht shut!!! | 9/29/2005 |
| Freedom Lover | I think it's OK to sent our troops to fight to protect our freedom, but this made up war is not about protecting our freedom. It's about protecting W's investments and all of his buddies. Our President values money more than he values lives. We should all be ashamed. | 9/27/2005 |
| fran | only a true redneck would criticize a woman for speaking her mind. especially when she's right like natalie was! | 9/22/2005 |
| Marianne | I agree Ford. Bush lied and thousands died. These sheep who blindly follow Bush are as responsible for the damage he is doing to our country as he is. | 9/15/2005 |
| Ford | When the president is wrong as Bush was about invading Iraq, it is certainly warranted to call him out. As a result of Bush's invasion, nearly 2000 brave Americans are dead and who knows how many more will die? It's sad that people won't open their eyes and minds. | 9/11/2005 |
| KJ | I loved the Dixie chicks, I have seen them in concert. But ... I will no longer buy anything that has to do with them due to her coments. I understand free speach and am all for it. But there is a time and a place for everything and to say something bad about the president of the united states in a foreign country is wrong. Its a shame that the group will have to suffer, because I no I am not the only one who feels this way. | 9/1/2005 |
| Jim | I love the Dixie Chicks. Toby Keith is just a stupid redneck. | 8/31/2005 |
| ann coulter | where is the happy person who used to talk to me? i need my good ole drinking buddy to come back and keep me company. | 8/29/2005 |
| USA_Soldier | it's July 4th. | 7/4/2005 |
| USA_Soldier | who is flying the American Flag today? |
7/4/2005 |
| USA_Soldier | Toby Keith rules period. | 7/4/2005 |
| Raenna | Okay, I read through most of this message traffic, so now here's my two cents...I am a Marine who just got back from Iraq, and that place sucked big time! 120 degree days, filthy rivers with animal carcasses floating past, bodies on the side of the road that you are afraid to check for life signs because half the time they are booby-trapped, mortar attacks on our camp that you actually get used to...the list goes on and on. That being said, I only had to be there for seven months, and I got to come home to my beloved country, America. Their are millions of innocent Iraqi families over there who will never leave that devestated land, who wake up to the fear that this will be their last day of life, because of the terrorists who are still rampaging that land. But I am back in America, the land of the free, not the land of the bullies. I do agree that Bush may have come into office wishing there was a way to get Saddam out of there, but by no means did he wish for 9/11!!! America is not a bully,but we can not allow for those innocent people to continue to be terrorized and tortured over there...that is why we are there still. If it was just about being a bully and getting rid of Saddam, we would have pulled out a long time ago. As for the freedom of speech and the D.C. remark, I do believe N.M stuck her foot in her mouth, but I don't hate her for it. I think she made a mistake, said something that she thought was funny, not realizing what a huge backlash it would have. I actually think that by making it a big deal, Americans actually pushed NM into a corner that forrced her to come out as an anti-war promoter without understanding the full realm of the war on terrorism. As for TK, I love you sweetie!!! And I'm back in Oklahoma, I would love to see your OU swimming pool again!!! |

| ann coulter | what's the matter carl? did i scare you? you're a p o s wimp. | 1/26/2005 |
| ann coulter | i got no sleep last night. i am so miserable. i can't deal with the pain anymore. | 1/24/2005 |
| Carl | Ann, why don't you learn to debate the issues rather than resort to name calling? Is it because you don't have a position that can be defended based on facts? Or is it because you don't really believe the trash you spout on TV? It must be fun to be a paid lackey for the right wing! If they paid you enough, you'd say anything. | 1/16/2005 |
| ann coulter | carl, why don't you bite me? | 1/13/2005 |
| Carl | Ann, did you get blitzed on December 31 and decide to spend the evening critiquing other posters' comments? You're a whacko! | 1/6/2005 |
| ann coulter | debra-if that is your real name-what is an "opion"? learn to spell, ok? also, your grammar is atrocious. you should say that "everyone has an opinion for him/herself." "everyone" is singular while "themselves" is plural. maybe you could come visit me and i could teach you how to write? god i am so lonely. | 12/31/2004 |
| DEBRA | EVERY ONE HAS AN OPION FOR THEMSELVES | 12/3/2004 |
| ann coulter | i am so miserable. why does the pain never stop? my life is worthless and it's so tough trying to pretend i am something that i am not. god, i need a drink! | 12/3/2004 |
| macy | percy, dude, chill out. it's ok | 12/1/2004 |
| Percy | Were i long jammed counter to the capitulated ranger, sideways rantings would lumber my grip. | 11/28/2004 |
| bob | toby keith is the best | 11/5/2004 |
| samantha thompn | how do you get the salar of the dixie chicks? | 10/18/2004 |
| TOBY'S DADDY | TOBY'S A GOOD BOY. REAL OBEDIENT AND WILLING TO PLEASE ME. | 10/16/2004 |
| I think it took guts for the Natalie to say what she did and for the chix to stand by her. Anyway what's the fuss...as my best freinds husband who'se Texas roots go WAAAAY back said when I asked him that question... (deep sigh of patience) "Darlin' he in't a REAL Texan" |
10/12/2004 | |
| ann coulter | would someone stop the pain? why do i even bother anymore? i am so miserable. my life is meaningless. | 10/7/2004 |
| Ru Stanley | Toby Keith is the top singer of the world. The Dixie chics can not touch is talent | 10/6/2004 |
| Sharon | Bush isn't stupid. He's just evil. | 10/2/2004 |
| graham | tim, you are so misinformed. you probably get all of your news from fox news channel. you should watch the REAL news, not the propaganda that fox wants you to believe. bush is a liar, he doesn't give a damn about protecting this country. he just wants to protect his friends and contributors. bush was itching to go to war the moment he got into office. and when you say that "he and his family are under higher risk than anyone else," you are way off base. bush has protection. our troops are in the line of fire. God bless our troops and save us from bush's stupidity. | 9/7/2004 |
| graham | toby keith is an opportunist. bush is a liar. | 9/7/2004 |
| tim maines | so people know toby never wanted to releace that song a soldiers ask him to put it out they liked it and because of that i like it more |
8/23/2004 |
| tim maines | i wish the people of this country wouldn't talk about things that they don't know anything about! and stop dising people who are doing their job Everyone should want to protect our freedom & our country . if we don't who will |
8/23/2004 |
| tim maines | our president is american like the rest us he does his job like any one else he doing his best to protect america bush don't want to go to war he and his family is under higher risk than any one else he will do in his power to protect his family and his country what would people do if he didn't do anything i know people from this country would be scared it would happen again and again and more people would be killed and you would be saying he's not doing any to protect us he don't care fact is he does care freedom worth fighting for the soldiers who fight , put their own on the line you and i , so we can be free freedom don't come free i support my troops and the war they fight |
8/20/2004 |
| tim maines | i did like Natalie maines from someone whos has the same last name but because she opened her mouth the comments she made It’s ignorant to say you hate a song that means so much to most americans |
8/20/2004 |
| ann coulter | i am so lonely and so miserable. where did all of the nice people go? god i need another drink. | 8/7/2004 |
| It's a shame that Toby Keith is such a "loyal" southerner that he can't see truth... our president is an idiot! I agree there are things worth fighting for but how many of our soldiers have to die to be "free"? America is just a big bully that needs to attend to her own failing economy and ethics rather than tear other countries down. Whatever I think the Dixie Chicks were right in their opinion of our idiotic president and that Toby Keith should stick to being a musician | 7/31/2004 | |
| Summer | I don't really see what all the fuss is about. F.U.T.K. didn't have to mean what everyone thought. She could have been wearing some name brand. Only God knows. Why does evryone think the worst at all times? | 1/22/2004 |

| Duke | I agree Frank. Billy should remember that someone in his family came here from somewhere else years ago. | 9/27/2003 |
| Duke | I agree Frank. Billy should remember that someone in his family came here from somewhere else years ago. | 9/27/2003 |
| Frank | People like Billy can't speak for the people who built this country. So you're upset about people coming from other places and taking jobs? Work harder and maybe you'll keep yours! | 9/27/2003 |

| ricardo | neanderthal comments from billy | 9/25/2003 |
| ricardo | nice letter from natalie | 9/25/2003 |
| Letter from Nat | This is from the Dixie Chicks' website at http://dixiechicks.launch.yahoo.com/news.asp?id=57. If you have problems reading English, or you if you prefer reading in a language more consistent with conservative ideals, there is a German translation on the website. Letter from Natalie 9/24/2003 Dear Reader: I am taking the time out of my very busy rock and roll life to write you this letter. As I am sure you can understand, being me is a full time job. I can't just drop everything every three days because someone needs a quote or statement about a quote or statement we may or may not have said. It's just draining me of time and effort I need to put toward other things. For one, I as a taxpayer have to get busy earning money to help pay off the latest $87 billion dollar addition to the national debt! Also, I have a huge list of phone calls to return. I'll list a few just so you get the idea. Message 1: Saddam Hussein called and wants to know where his weapons of mass destruction are. Listen Saddam, I already told you, I don't know. You’re going to have to call the White House on that one. Message 2: Country radio called and wants to know if it's true that you're leaving country music? This one must be a prank call. I mean, how can you leave a party now when the hosts had shown you to the door six months ago. Message 3: Sheryl Crow and Lenny Kravitz called to see if you could come to their party Friday night. Oh that one’s easy. I can't, I'm already going to Ashton and Demi's party. Message 4: G. Gordon Liddy, Rush Limbaugh, and Don Imus all called again to ask about the plane crash. Listen guys this is really getting old. I'm sorry, but no we did not die in a plane crash. But look on the bright side…we fly all the time. Message 5: Arnold Schwarzenegger called to see if we wanted to "verk out" with him at "zee gym" next week. Hmmm that's both weird and scary. He must not have heard what Emily "said" about him or know that we're married! See, can you understand now why I don't have time to constantly defend my partners and myself? Oh speaking of partners, Martie did want me to clear up two things that she absolutely did not say in any shape, form or fashion. She wants it to be known that she never complained about not winning any ACM awards. I told her nobody who has ever seen what an ACM award looks like is going to believe she said any such thing. But nevertheless she wanted to clear that up. The second thing was that she never said we were a part of the "rock and roll family" now. I once again told her I didn't think it was necessary to clear that up. I mean, as of yet, I wasn't aware we had made a rock album. As a matter of fact, I think I recall our last album being bluegrass. So there you have it. Do with it what you will. You know, a good thing that has come out of all this is having a good support system from the music industry to call on for advice. Most recently I called up Ozzy to ask him what I should do about all of this, and do you know what he told me? Oh hang on just a second, you won't believe this…P. Didddy and Eminem just instant messaged me at the exact same time. I didn't even know that was possible. Let me just IM them back that I will have to talk to them later. O.K. sorry about that. Now where was I? Oh right Ozzy. Do you know what he told me to do? Well, I don't really know either. I couldn't really understand him. But he did say something at the end that was very profound. He said "f*** it." I like that advice. I think I'll do just that. So from here on out when you call for a statement, explanation, apology, etc., we are just going to have to refer you to this letter. Oh, and by the way, since you’re here on our website you might as well go buy a T-shirt. We are having a plane crash sale. Everything is double. Oh, I have to go. Keith and Mick are in the limo waiting for me. The five of us have started getting together every Tuesday night. I must tell you, Keith is really getting into his fiddle lessons with Martie. He can already play "Faded Love". And Mick, well he gets faster at "Dueling Banjos" with Emily every week. I think they are really going to blow everyone away at the rock and roll family reunion next week. But, it's not just about them learning from us. Nope, they help me every week think up new controversial "rock and roll" things to say. Thanks guys…you’re the greatest! Love, Natalie PS. I will also be posting this in German so if you don't like what I really said you can just translate it into what suits your agenda. |

| Billy | eat me ricardo. go back to where you came from! you f#$%ing minorities cause all the problems here and keep us real americans from getting jobs. | 9/25/2003 |
| ricardo | if someone calls me "a dirty spic" is that not racist? | 9/25/2003 |
| ricardo | racism is ignorance | 9/25/2003 |
| drake | Ricardo is making no sense, Republican is a racist? You are so ignorant get a clue | 9/25/2003 |
| ricardo | what's the difference? | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | or is she a republican? | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | is michelle a racist? | 9/24/2003 |
| Michelle | Ricardo is a dirty spic | 9/24/2003 |
| Gary | iraq and bin laden have ties | 9/24/2003 |
| gary | Ricardo doesn't care about innocent Iraqis being killed by their leader. | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | gary is overlooking a few facts | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | saddam is still on the loose | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | there are other oppressive dictators out there who have killed thousands of their own people | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | there are others who really DO have weapons of mass destruction | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | yet we haven't gone after them | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | and one more thing |
9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | hussein is an evil man | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | but bin laden is the one who killed thousands of OUR own innocent people | 9/24/2003 |
| Gary | Ricardo, wants to wait for more terrorists to strike innocents | 9/24/2003 |
| Gary | Ricardo, doesn't realize Saddam is the one who killed thousands of his own people and buried them in mass graves. | 9/24/2003 |
| CLARENCE | MAN I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS SITE IS STILL UP! I QUIT CHECKING IT A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. WHAT'S THE TOPIC TODAY EVERYBODY? | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | therefore: | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | gary doesn't realize that iraqi civilians are still getting killed | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | gary gets saddam hussein confused with osama bin laden | 9/24/2003 |
| ricardo | gary likes to see american soldiers killed | 9/24/2003 |
| Gary | Ricardo likes mass graves | 9/23/2003 |
| Gary | Ricardo wants terrorist regimes to kill innocent people | 9/23/2003 |
| Gary | Ricardo likes to see Iraqis Oppressed | 9/23/2003 |
| tk4ever | does any1 have any shirtless pics of toby to share? please!!! | 9/23/2003 |
| ricardo | surely you have other things to worry about | 9/23/2003 |
| ricardo | michelle michelle michelle | 9/23/2003 |
| ricardo | a wrecked economy | 9/23/2003 |
| ricardo | an unjustified war | 9/23/2003 |
| ricardo | i'm glad i can distract you | 9/23/2003 |
| Michelle | because you are saying one word replies...just say everything in one post. Get a life Ricardo | 9/23/2003 |
| ricardo | is it because you don't agree? | 9/23/2003 |
| ricardo | michelle, why is exercising my freedom of speech considered "spamming"? | 9/23/2003 |
| Michelle | why are you spamming the board ricardo? You are very annoying. | 9/23/2003 |
| ricardo | kucinich | 9/23/2003 |

| ricardo | any of them would be a significant improvement over bush | 9/23/2003 |
| ricardo | bush has his priorities | 9/22/2003 |
| ricardo | halliburton gets millions of dollars in contracts | 9/22/2003 |
| ricardo | 300 americans die | 9/22/2003 |
| ricardo | bush invades iraq | 9/22/2003 |
| ricardo | another bush lie | 9/22/2003 |
| ricardo | so much for compassionate conservatism | 9/22/2003 |
| ricardo | really classy comment danny boy | 9/22/2003 |
| Danny Boy | damn, the chicks almost died in a plane accident. The plane's wing hit a building. That would have been great! | 9/22/2003 |
| ricardo | i'm not the one whose misguided policies caused it | 9/22/2003 |
| ricardo | fred calls me an idiot because we have a big deficit | 9/22/2003 |
| fred | and now you're an idiot | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | at least his friends have more money | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | now we have a big deficit | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | until bush cut taxes for the rich | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | we had a big surplus | 9/21/2003 |
| Another View | How dare the Dixie Chicks and others exercise their First Amendment rights! All this talk about how sad it made Americans feel to see the WTC towers fall. I thought it was fashionable for country music fans to ridicule and malign 'New York City' ala Pace Picante Sauce prior to 9/11. Just because your dad was a real war hero in a real war doesn't make you knowledgeable about what war really is. TK's dad was a Democrat, TK is a Republican, because he says he can afford to be. If you support the war and the killing, why don't you go and fight in the war? If TK is too old to go, then why not go to Iraq and give some free concerts to the troops? Everyone who supports this war should get involved. How soon we forget. Are we ever going to learn and remember the lessons of the past? Do the war supporters feel good when they see the collateral damage inflicted upon innocent Iraqis and Afghanis? This crusade against the Nation of Islam is going to create a lot of enemies for the US. Americans are dying daily for a fraudulent war in Iraq. Soldiers are doing without water they desperately need to live. Soldiers are dying for no good reason in Iraq. Why isn't there a song written about the extreme failure of the Bushies to stop 9/11? How can 4 jet airliners fly for almost two hours without being intercepted by NORAD? Yeah, we should always support our troops. We do. Bring them home now! |
9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | we should all be ashamed | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | troops died | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | bush lied | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | who needs them anyway? | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | so overrated | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | civil liberties | 9/21/2003 |
| ricardo | no freedom of expression | 9/20/2003 |
| ricardo | yeah | 9/20/2003 |
| ricardo | censorship lives | 9/20/2003 |
| drake | yes Toby Keith concert tonight!!!! I cant wait!!!!!! | 9/19/2003 |

| Humpty | OUCH! | 9/18/2003 |
| Clarq | i think toby keith is a flea ridden redneck | 9/17/2003 |
| jespah | ha ha ha ha ha | 9/17/2003 |
| Giovanni | I'm an openminded guy. | 9/17/2003 |

| M. | I think Toby is a hottie. My fantasy is that he will make a porn movie. I could get lost in that fur of his! Yum yum gimme some! | 9/16/2003 |
| Gail | Interesting debate here. I think it's sad that Bush is asking for $87 billion to rebuild Iraq, because the only thing Bush has done well is raise money for his reelection campaign. Maybe he should ask his donors for money to rebuild Iraq, considering that their corporations will be the only Americans who benefit from it. | 9/16/2003 |
| Bush = Failure | Yeah, newspapers don't run for President. However, there are editors of small town newspapers who have a greater command of world affairs than bush does. |
9/15/2003 |
| fan | Wow, the same info here: http://www.buzzflash.com/contributors/03/04/23_resume.html and what do you know at the bottom of the page it reads: Articles in the BuzzFlash Contributor section are posted as-is. Given the timeliness of some Contributor articles, BuzzFlash cannot verify or guarantee the accuracy of every word. We strive to correct inaccuracies when they are brought to our attention. You should know, not everything you read is true! Oh and the Newspapers dont run for President. |
9/15/2003 |
| Bush = Failure | fan, open your eyes. There is SO much to bash! By the way, Bush/Cheney with the help of the media hacks at Fox, the NY Post, and the Washington Times did nothing but bash the Clinton administration. Your memory of 1993-2000 is outrageously selective. The difference is that Clinton screwed an ugly intern. Bush and Cheney have screwed the entire country! Clinton gave us the longest period of peacetime prosperity in American history. Bush has given us the biggest job loss in American history. Anyone who truly loves this country cannot think that Bush is good for America. |
9/15/2003 |
| fan | are you one of the democrat candidates running? Because that's all they can seem to do is bash Bush..nothing else, it's pathetic | 9/15/2003 |
| fan | lol, quite the copy and paste job. you think anyone is going to read that? You should have just posted the link. | 9/14/2003 |

9/8/2003 |
| diana | craig is right. maybe if you read something besides this site, you would know that it's not just an allegation. investigations by the miami herald and new york times revealed that if the supreme court had allowed the recount that was mandated by florida law to take place, gore would have won florida by at least 2500 votes. that doesn't even take into account the voters who were taken off the voter roles because their names "sounded" like those of felons. | 9/8/2003 |
| fan | Well I'm sorry, i didn't know you were such a detective.If you discovered this, why have you not come forward and told anyone to solve this problem? oh yeah, I know why...cuz it's an allegation that never happened and was never "proved"! ......... Republicans never wanted African-Americans to have the right to vote anyway........um ok, that makes sense.. |
9/7/2003 |
| Craig | He wasn't elected, fan. He "won" only because his brother and Katherine Harris illegally struck 40,000 African-American from voter lists. Republicans never wanted African-Americans to have the right to vote anyway, and they finally got their way. | 9/7/2003 |
| fan | keep telling yourself that he wasn't elected....ok | 9/7/2003 |
| Craig | fan, in George W. Bush's America, people have lots of time on their hands. Under Bush's watch, America has lost more jobs than under ANY other President. He inherited a budget surplus and turned it into the largest deficit in US history. Considering how big the deficit was when his father left office in 1993, that's quite an accomplishment. Bush is a joke of a President. However, you can't blame the American people. After all, we didn't elect him. | 9/6/2003 |
| fan | im sorry you dont care for Iraqi's, just let them be killed by a regime. | 9/6/2003 |
| fan | it's amazing how much time people waste making web sites like that...if only these people used the resources towards a campaign. this is doing nothing. cry cry cry...like some freaking website with an electronic petition is going to get him out of office | 9/6/2003 |
| Bush Recall | It's time to tell Bush to take a hike! Go to this site: http://www.bushrecall.org/petition/ |
9/4/2003 |
| cherie | no wonder fan is a republican. voting republican is a lot easier than thinking. if you think that invading iraq has eliminated even a molecule of the terrorist threat, you are naive. if you want to get rid of terrorism, start with saudi arabia. oh, but that's where mr. bush's buddies are. maybe in january 2005 when a new president takes office we can work on the real terrorist threat. | 9/4/2003 |
| merk | OIL!!! OH MY god, it is NOT for oil! did we take oil in the last gulf war?????? NO!!!!!!!!!!Get a clue. Ben? you meaan Bin? | 9/4/2003 |
| gabrielle | I bought a Dixi Chick CD after I saw how people got so vicious against them for their speaking out..I dislike Bush also don't trust him..I am an Army brat and have a lot of respect and compasion for our troops and that is why I don't think we should be there..for Oil?? and 911 haven't yet proven ANY connection between Iraq and Ben L. I don't remember an administration that so harshly goes after anyone who says anything against it...scary!! | 9/2/2003 |
| fan | Yeah it sure is wonderful to have to be threatened daily by terrorists too. I'm glad Adam thinks terrorists should let the people of the world fear for their life everyday. Unbelievable how people think these killers deserve to live and we shouldnt try to stop them. | 9/2/2003 |
| Adam | For those of you who don't get the reference, Bush and Cheney managed to avoid service in Vietnam while over 50,000 Americans died defending our country. It must be wonderful to have connections. | 9/1/2003 |
| Adam | Maybe the people who the Supreme Court appointed President and Vice-President should go fight a war and feel what it's like to defend a wonderful country. If you people are so blind that you can't see what a mess Bush/Cheney has created at home and abroad, then it's no shock that you're still upset about Natalie Maines exercising her right to free speech. | 9/1/2003 |
| Mike | Toby Keith is a self-made, self-driven musical icon. He writes and performs songs that make people feel good about life, themselves and THEIR COUNTRY. The Dixie Dinks' best effort to date is just a cover of a 25 year-old song(Landslide). If they want to express their political views, they should do it through song, not just by whining on stage to a captive audience - that's just CHICKensh*t ! | 8/30/2003 |
| Kevin Adams | the dixie chicks should go fight war and feel what its like to defend a wonderful country | 8/29/2003 |
| fred | clyde go hump a tree, where are you from? Canada? Must be such a "bad" song if he has so many nominations......Cashing in? All musicians "cash in" on their songs, no matter what it is written about. | 8/28/2003 |
| Clyde | Natalie has the guts to speak her mind in this supposed free country of our while Toby just uses 911 to cash in on a bad song that ignorant Americans can understand. | 8/28/2003 |
| D J SSSSS | the "chicks" blew it...big time | 8/27/2003 |
| Toby Rules | Toby Keith Gets Most Country Award Nominations Tuesday August 26, 2003 10:57am Nashville, TN (AP) |
8/26/2003 |
| tk4ever | i don't care about the music. i just think Toby is so cute. he has such beautiful eyes and a sweet smile. he looks so cuddly!!! i wish someone would tell me where i can find some shirtless pics of him!!! | 8/24/2003 |
| cntrygrl | So, What 'DID' happen to freedom of speech? And what happen to true country music? And people with all their comments, are you even country music fans, or just wanting to keep the arguement afire? I thought it was about the music, not comments. I agree with sticking up for my country. Politics and music, two different things. I've heard alot of rap artists dis the american leaders, only worse and where are their names in all of this. | 8/21/2003 |
| Beverly 'Womble | dixie Chicks have style and are the real deal. I like their bluegrass style and they are just totally better than Toby Keith. Their talent has brought interest back to country music. | 8/21/2003 |
| tk4ever | please somebody tell me where i can find shirtless pics of Toby!!!!!! | 8/20/2003 |

| tk4ever | shirtless pics of Toby??? | 8/11/2003 |
| Robert | Natalie takes for granted the very thing that makes this country great - freedom. She doesn't even understand the meaning of the word. While she sits there and enjoys her cornflakes, our soldiers are fighting for her and for the Iraqi people. How many other countries do you know of that come to the aid of the oppressed, defeat the evil enemy, save the people of the country, help repair the country, and then leave without taking any land or asking for anything in return except that the country remain free? America is great! Don't ever forget the sacrifices our forefathers have made to ensure our freedom. | 8/11/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann you just no good hypocritical hoochie mama trash! | 8/10/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann if yhou had any guts you would at least reply to me. Did you think we wouldn't find out who you were? You got a lot of issues. | 8/10/2003 |
| tk4ever | Can anybody tell me where I can find shirtless pics of Toby? I would prefer pics online but I will settle for having to buy them if anybody knows who sells them. Thanx!!! | 8/9/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann I just looked up your website and I think you are a disgusting human being. I take back every encouraging thing I ever wrote to you. How dare you party with two guys you don't even know and then judge other people for their beliefs and opinions. I hope they drop you and then what will you do? | 8/9/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann are you there? | 8/8/2003 |
| Carrie | RAWK ON DIXIE CHICKS!!! | 8/8/2003 |
| Jennifer | Is this true Ann? | 8/8/2003 |
| Michael | oh my god. I saw ann on tv tonight. She was on larry king live, and is a author for a book | 8/8/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann you really need to look at yourself before you talk about other people and sin. | 8/7/2003 |
| tk4ever | I agree Erica but I R-E-A-L-L-Y L-O-V-E Toby! He is so cute!!! Do you know where I can find any shirtless pictures of him? | 8/7/2003 |
| Erica | Dixie Chicks and Toby Keith BOTH ROCK! But Toby Keith rocks my socks! I love him! | 8/7/2003 |
| ann coulter | i am not as liberal as you ok jennifer? i think that's a sin and i don't approve of it | 8/7/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann you live with two gay guys and you don't approve of that lifestyle? Wake up girlfriend! | 8/6/2003 |
| Charlotte | WOW!! I can not believe the HATEFUL rheotoric in a majority of these comments. You peopke need to realize that all Toby keith has done is perpetuate streotypes and hatred . Our country has an insatiable bloodlust. It is so easy to go with the majority. Mr Keith is relying on your anger and ignorance to sell albums and make another dollar. Unfortunately you all are stupid enough to truly believe that this song is in defense of our freedom and country. What is the point of "defending" our freedom if we just destroy those who excersise that right. Please I beg of you Pick Up A Newspaper, Read A Book!!! Do not continue to seep yourselves in this ignorance. Your comments are truly frightening. | 8/6/2003 |
| EdRock | FUTK! | 8/6/2003 |
| Julia | Donald has no brain | 8/6/2003 |
| Donald | Its good Micheal I beleave you. I am sure its Freedie are what ever his name is. He is the retard. | 8/6/2003 |
| ann coulter | i watched queer eye for the straight guy with jim and barry. it was funny but i don't approve of that lifestyle. | 8/6/2003 |
| ann coulter | i think you are being sarcastic jenna and i do not appreciate it. | 8/6/2003 |
| Michael | I didnt say that donald because my name starts with a capital M, not lowercase, so the loser that did that get a life and a name | 8/5/2003 |
| michael | Donald, you are a retard | 8/5/2003 |
| freddie | gradurated, commonist! HA! I Love it!!!! | 8/5/2003 |
| Donald | Leave me alone Freedie you commonist. I am a hard working American who had to quit school before I gradurated to take care of my momma so maybe I don't spell good. You better turn you're life around or you will be on the streets like that Ann is. | 8/5/2003 |
| der | Jennifer, there is no such thing as minding your own business on an online chat forum. Everybody sees, anybody can reply.... | 8/5/2003 |
| Jennifer | You need to mind your own business, der! | 8/5/2003 |
| Jenna | Ann- your life sounds intriguing, let me know more | 8/5/2003 |
| Jenna | I thought this was a TK chat line, but it seems like more is going on. Does anyone care to enlighten me? I'm new to the chat line, and would like to join in......let me play..... | 8/5/2003 |
| der | wow, just stating the facts jennifer. You need to settle down. | 8/4/2003 |
| Jennifer | So "der" how have your movies done at theatres. Oh, you haven't made any? It's not as easy as it looks, let me tell you! | 8/4/2003 |
| der | Gigli bombed at the theaters | 8/4/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann I thought Gigli was really good. I think JLo is so beautiful. | 8/4/2003 |
| freddie | Donald, learn to spell, it's pERvert,not prevert.....and Whore, not hore. tk4ever-SHUTUP!!!!!!!!!!!! NOBODY HAS IT! |
8/4/2003 |
| Donald | So do you Ann you sorry hore. | 8/4/2003 |
| Michael | Good thought M@ | 8/4/2003 |
| tk4ever | Please somebody let me know where I can find shirtless pics of Toby!!! | 8/4/2003 |
| M@ | The only reason dixie chicks are hated so much now is because of what they said about the president. I know a lot of people felt like she did, but didnt have the balls to say it and when she said it, it was all "oh no lets not let her talk about our president" because of what other countries might think. If she wouldnt have said that this debate wouldnt even be a contest. People say they hate the dixie chicks but then again buy their album or download their music? This country tries to be patriotic by hanging up flags after 9/11, but of course after a year the flags start coming down. Whats that about? Well you may not agree but its how i see it! | 8/4/2003 |
| Jennifer | Good for you Ann. | 8/3/2003 |
| Donald | Ann you hore you will burn in hell for what you done. | 8/3/2003 |
| ann coulter | no jennifer we are quite happy i cannot belive how much my life has turned around in a week thanks to these two wonderful men | 8/3/2003 |
| Victoria | I wish you could see how the world sees America right now. Like the Chicks in England, I am watching the events unfold with astonishment -- the Chick vs. Toby Keith is like a Greek tragedy, playing out the larger view. I did not like the 'tone' or message in Keith's song. Having a daughter who is a serving member of the military, and having lost friends in the undeclared war in Vietnam, I can only shake my head at the way history continues to repeat itself. | 8/3/2003 |
| Nelly | It's gettin hot in here So take of all your clothes |
8/3/2003 |
| tk4ever | i want shirtless pics of toby!!! | 8/3/2003 |
| Jennifer | Oh baby! Do you need a roommate? I give taco flavored kisses. | 8/2/2003 |
| ann coulter | yes | 8/2/2003 |
| Jennifer | Oh Ann, you are a tease! So are you saying that Jim and Barry do it with each other? | 8/2/2003 |
| ann coulter | i hope you understand jen but i don't want to get into details but if you can imagine it i am sure that we have done it and if the three of us haven't done it together any two of us have most likely done it at some time in the past few days | 8/2/2003 |
| Jennifer | Michael you sound like you are very repressed. | 8/2/2003 |
| Jennifer | You are so lucky Ann! I hope I am not getting too personal but what do you do with Jim and Barry? | 8/2/2003 |
| ann coulter | last night was incredible. these guys are so hot and so attentive to my needs. | 8/2/2003 |
| tk4ever | oh my god! i thought this site was locked. i am so glad it's still here. please, does anyone know where i can find shirtless pics of toby??? | 8/2/2003 |
| Michael | Oh Jennifer another thing, If you want me to hate, why dont I just hate on you. | 8/2/2003 |
| Michael | i dont want to be mean heidi u, but who said you had to purchase there stuff or listen to it, you dont have to tell us that | 8/2/2003 |
| Heidi U. | I've lost all respect for the Dixie Chicks and will never purchase another album of theirs. Toby Keith, on the other hand, can do no wrong. He's a great American | 8/1/2003 |
| Michael | jennifer you sound like you are very dense |
8/1/2003 |
| Jennifer | Michael ain't nothing but a hater. Don't hate! | 8/1/2003 |
| CLARENCE | WHAT DO YOU MEAN MICHAEL? I WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT ANN AND JENNIFER! WHATS THE TOPIC TODAY? | 8/1/2003 |
| Michael | everyone, this is a toby keith and dixie chicks message board, not a Ann slut board, please stay on topic ann and jennifer. | 8/1/2003 |
| Michael | oh im sorry jennifer but i dont want any men | 8/1/2003 |
| ann coulter | thanks jen you are a good friend. i am alone today but jim and barry say that we will have lots of fun this weekend and i can't wait to find out what they have planned for me | 8/1/2003 |
| Jennifer | Don't pay any attention to him Ann. He's probably upset cause he don't get any. | 8/1/2003 |
| ann coulter | why would you say that michael? | 8/1/2003 |
| Michael | well damn ann, it sounds like barry and jim love each other more than you | 7/31/2003 |
| ann coulter | today has been the best day yet. when i woke up jim and barry were in the shower together and i watched them. it was so hot. barry did not have to work today so we have spent the day getting to know each other better. | 7/31/2003 |
| jerry | my name is jerry! get it right!! | 7/31/2003 |
| CLARENCE | MAN THIS BOARD IS WHACKED! SO WHAT IS THE TOPIC TODAY? | 7/31/2003 |
| W | Mike and Jeery, you must be ashamed of yourselves for what you said about Ann. We are all sinners. | 7/31/2003 |
| Eric Shunn | Yall excite me with all this nasty talk | 7/31/2003 |
| Flaht itties | you go ann! | 7/31/2003 |
| Mike Hunt | Ann and Jennifer are sinners and you must repent. | 7/31/2003 |
| Hugh Jass | I think I soiled myself. | 7/30/2003 |
| ann coulter | thank you jennifer it is everything i ever hoped for they are such nice men so hot and wonderful to be with. | 7/30/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann I am really happy for you. It sounds like you are living my fantasy. I have always wanted to do it with two guys but my boyfriend is too hung up to try that. We have done it with another woman but he's just too uptight to have another guy. One night I think I will get him really drunk and bring in another guy. You go girl! | 7/30/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | jeery way to make her feel better, she was just getting to feel good about her self. and then it is people like u who will ruin that for her. | 7/30/2003 |
| angela | Well, I am glad you are happy. I hope this is a life changing experience, and you could possibly stop drinking. Toby Keith is awesome. | 7/30/2003 |
| ann coulter | god these last few days have been so wild! jim picked me up for lunch yesterday afternoon and i just got back. we went to a really nice restaurant and had sushi and then we hung out until barry got off work and then he came over and it was so incredible. i have never felt so good in all of my life. | 7/29/2003 |
| Simon | All Natalie Maines said was that she was ashamed that the president is from Texas. If I were from Texas, I'd be ashamed too. | 7/29/2003 |
| Annette | I think that the chicks should be ashamed of Natalie, in another country critisizing our President. That is airing your dirty laundry a business meeting, not appropriate. | 7/29/2003 |
| kt | They both make good music, no questions asked. I like them both. But i agree with T.K. Some things are worth fighting for | 7/28/2003 |
| fan | Ok mr weapons inspector, whatever you say. | 7/28/2003 |
| ann coulter | what do you want to know jen? | 7/28/2003 |
| Michael | well ann, im really glad your happy now | 7/28/2003 |
| Robby | Toby Keith IS ignorant. What ever did happen to finding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq? Oh wait I forgot ... they don't exist. | 7/28/2003 |
| Jennifer | Are you serious Ann? Tell me more!!! What did you do? What did they do? | 7/28/2003 |
| ann coulter | i woke up this morning feeling so wonderful. being loved by one man is a gift. being loved by two at the same time is a miracle. | 7/28/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | never mind got it open. | 7/28/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | my comp wont open pg 4 who was the couple? | 7/28/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | my last one was 4 ann | 7/28/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | i'm glad u had a great day and i'm glad that things went up 4u. i'm sorry that people have been givin u a hard time and that some people can't just say something nice sometimes. i would also like 2 kno what happened at the pool. | 7/28/2003 |
| Jennifer | So what happened with Jim and Barry at the pool Ann? I want details!!! | 7/27/2003 |
| Michael | ann, i don't know if an apology is the right thing to say right now, no one bad mouthed you, we just told you it was stupid to make decisions like that. If you dont want any of our advice any more, don't place comments of dispair anymore. | 7/27/2003 |
| ann coulter | hi jennifer it was more wonderful than i could have possibly dreamed. i was at the bottom when jim came to my door. he told me that he had been on an assignment until late friday and wanted to cancel the weekend but he lost my phone number so he came by a couple of times yesterday but i wasn't home because that was when i was looking for him. see everybody it was just a misunderstanding so i think you all owe me an apology except for you jennifer you have not been a judger of me | 7/27/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann, I am so happy for you! It sounds like you had a wild day!!! Tell us all about it please! | 7/27/2003 |
| ann coulter | i just had the most incredible day. the guy who picked me up the other night his name is jim called me to tell me that his friend whose name is barry was not able to get to my car until today and that we could go see how it's going so he picked me up and we went over there and i felt so happy it restored my faith in people and his friend was so handsome and so nice he told me that he had to replace a lot of parts and that it was expensive but as a favor to jim that he would make a deal with me so i spent the day with jim and barry at jim's pool and they were both really hot and one thing led to another. it was a great day and they said my car should be ready tomorrow so it just goes to show how much all of you know | 7/27/2003 |
| Michael | Ann, angelas right, u probably wont ever see your car again. But if you live in a small town the chances are good you might get it back, but they probably drove far away by now. | 7/27/2003 |
| angela | Ann.. I doubt you will ever get your car back. You should have never got in the car that night. I think you should call the police, or your insurance company and report it. But, it might not do any good, cause, 1 your were drinking and driving, 2 you don't know the guys name, 3 you don't know where he lives, 4 you don't know where his friend lives. But, it is worth the try. I told you that you probably would never see your car again. | 7/27/2003 |
| Michael | ann, go to the police, after that take a trip to go find a doctor. | 7/27/2003 |
| ann coulter | i keep getting these weird phone calls | 7/27/2003 |
| ann coulter | the pain is unbearable | 7/27/2003 |
| ann coulter | what makes you say that? | 7/26/2003 |
| Michael | Or ann, they could be stripping the car for parts to sale. | 7/26/2003 |
| Michael | Or ann, they could be stripping the car for parts to sale. | 7/26/2003 |
| ann coulter | i have spent all day looking for my car and the guy who said he would get his friend to fix it and i haven't had any luck at all. my car wasn't where i left it the other day and i have no idea where the guy lived because he did the driving. i remember that he drove an suv of some type but i don't know one from the other and i am just so embarassed that i can't call the cops besides this could all be just some type of misunderstanding i mean maybe he wanted to make sure my car was fixed before he came to pick me up and his friend wasn't able to come through and fix the car as quickly as he thought and he was ashamed to tell me | 7/26/2003 |
| Charlie T. | Thank God I have the right not to buy the Dixie Chicks music. Radio Stations shouldn't be forced to play the Dixie Chicks music if they don't like their music. | 7/26/2003 |
| Pat | The dixie chicks have a right to speak their mind. Or are we slaves to the government? | 7/26/2003 |
| ann coulter | i haven't slept all night. i just don't know what to do | 7/26/2003 |
| Michael | well ann if you wouldnt make stupid decisions things wouldnt happen to you. Yous sound book smart but you lack common sense | 7/26/2003 |
| ann coulter | i am so unhappy and i feel so used. why do these things happen to me? | 7/26/2003 |
| ann coulter | the agonizing pain of it all | 7/25/2003 |
| ann coulter | he still isn't here. i hope he's ok. he was supposed to pick me up 3 hours ago | 7/25/2003 |
| ann coulter | he was supposed to be here 30 minutes ago | 7/25/2003 |
| angela | Right.. ok, it could have been a person on the street. It could have been anybody, you could have even got in a wreck and killed someone. Then you would go to jail for vehicular manslaughter. Then you would lose your children. And with the guy, do you even know his name? I wouldn't be to suprised if you never see your car ever again. | 7/25/2003 |
| jeber | yes you two are going away, away for good! | 7/25/2003 |
| ann coulter | he wasn't a total stranger. i am going away with him this weekend | 7/25/2003 |
| Jeanette | You gave your car keys to a total stranger? | 7/25/2003 |
| ann coulter | i gave the keys to the guy who picked me up and he said that he would have a friend of his tow it to his shop and work on it for me for free. first i meet this guy and then he knows someone who can fix my car for me so things are really looking up for me!!! | 7/25/2003 |
| Jeanette | Whatever happened to your car, Ann? | 7/25/2003 |
| CLARENCE | OH YEAH NOW YOU'RE TALKING! SO WHAT'S THE TOPIC TODAY EVERYBODY? | 7/25/2003 |
| ann coulter | what would a child have been doing walking on a curb in the middle of the night? | 7/25/2003 |
| angela | What? Are you still to drunk to remember what you even wrote? | 7/25/2003 |
| angela | What would you have done if that curb was a child or someone. Do you not even think about that? How stupid are you to go out and get drunck and drive. You could have killed others. Yeah, have fun getting kidnapped. But I truly mean it, I hope you don't get hurt. I would hate to see anybody get hurt. Just be careful. Although, that is a stupid decision. | 7/25/2003 |
| ann coulter | when? | 7/25/2003 |
| Michael | Ann you do the most stupid stuff, have fun this weekend getting kidnapped | 7/25/2003 |
| Jennifer | So what happened Ann? I want details!! | 7/25/2003 |
| jeery | Good for you ann!! | 7/25/2003 |
| ann coulter | i went out last night and i got so wasted and then i ran into the same couple from the night before and went back to their place with them and then things got very weird and i left and i don't know what time it was and so on the way home i got lost because i was so disoriented and while i was looking for street signs i wasn't watching where i was going and i drove up on the curb and the car wouldn't drive anymore so i just left it there and decided to hitch a ride home and this really nice guy picked me up and he lived not far from there and he saw i was upset so we went back to his place for more drinks and to talk. anyway i am going away with him this weekend and i am really excited about it! | 7/25/2003 |
| jeery | but it does Angela! TRY IT! | 7/25/2003 |
| angela | Jeery... I can tell that is probably a daily habit that you do. People are crazy if they think that is the way to actually think that that stuff will help with your problems. | 7/25/2003 |
| Jennifer | What happened Ann? Did you run into that couple again? | 7/25/2003 |
| Rhiannan | I just think it is so funny about the feud!!! I fell in love with Toby Keith when i was just 5 years old and im 14 and in high school now'!! When the Dixie Chicks came out i like them and everything but they were just too not right for the gang type deal!!Sorry try again in a few centuies Natalie!! I love you TK | 7/25/2003 |
| ann coulter | i know i shouldn't go out tonight but i am so edgy and restless and i need a drink. i keep losing my nights to other people and i am afraid i will run into that couple again and i won't be able to say no. | 7/24/2003 |
| jeery | ann, I advise you to sleep with as many guys as possible and drink heavily, it will help! | 7/24/2003 |
| angela | I agree Michael about R. Kelley | 7/24/2003 |
| Jennifer | Don't leave us in suspense Ann. What happened?? | 7/24/2003 |
| Michael | R. Kelley, I dont care if she told you she was 50 | 7/24/2003 |
| CLARENCE | MAN THIS IS GETTING GOOD! SO WHAT IS TODAYS TOPIC? | 7/24/2003 |
| R Kelly | That girl told me she was 18. | 7/24/2003 |
| ann coulter | last night i went out for a drink and i went home with a guy and his girlfriend | 7/24/2003 |
| fan | oops, "I" | 7/24/2003 |
| fan | a agree jeanette | 7/24/2003 |
| Jeanette | fan, there is a big difference between defending what someone did and "backing" him. Clinton said, "You know, everybody makes mistakes when they are president. I mean, you can't make as many calls as you have to make without messing up once in a while. The thing we ought to be focused on is what is the right thing to do now. That's what I think." Clinton is right. This administration was so focused on getting support for the war that they didn't seem to have a plan on what to do once they took over. | 7/24/2003 |
| Cochran | "If your running down my country, man, youre walking on the fighting side of me"....HAG | 7/24/2003 |
| Michael | who cares what natalie said. Its her mouth, God gave it to her, and she can say what ever she wants. I dont see why everyone is so concerned about it, shoot, if I lived in Texas, I would be ashamed from being there too if bush lived there. Somebody needs to tell that alcoholic to go back to the AA meetings. And banning the Dixie Chicks music is so damn stupid. If people dont want to hear it, change the station. Its also stupid to hate there music now too,... Whats the freaking point???? I dont know if everyone has heard of the rap singer R. Kelley, but he melested a little girl and got off like O.J Simpson. In fact I heard his stupid music on the radio. Why isnt every one banning his music? Well I guess in this good ole U.S.A you can't critizize the president, but you can go out and rape somebody and everything is all right, and they keep playing your music and everything. Am I wrong? NO!!! hit the bullet right on the head. | 7/24/2003 |
| Cochran | Well, all I can say is Natalie started it. Doesnt really seem like she has the brains to be in the public eye. Everytime her mouth opens it seems to ooze ignorance. I don't hate but i just wish she lived in Iraq. Go Toby, Go US Military, thank God for the soldiers marines airmen and sailors. Come back soon. Oh yeah and im behind Bush even though he might not be the brightest bulb on the tree, but what did you expect....he is from Texas! | 7/24/2003 |
| angela | It just goes to show that Natalie Maines is not a mature adult. | 7/23/2003 |
| fan | clinton backing bush! I Love it! The democrats don't know what to do!!! HA! | 7/23/2003 |
| ann coulter | i'm back | 7/23/2003 |
| Peggy murphy | I love Toby's Red, White and Blue, I feel he is speaking for alot of the American people and expressing our True feeling. | 7/23/2003 |
| tobylvr | natalie sux..toby keiths dad fought in the korean war toby actually knows what hes standing up for ..natalie..she knows nothing of what she is talking about.she wears shirts that say freedom but if she doesnt want to fight a war she wont have any freedom.and she wouldnt be able to open her big fat mouth anymore.that would be a good thing! i feel sorry for the other dixie chix becuase natalie sorta ruins the group ex.shes the only one with fake blonde hair ex.ther all skinny cept for her ex. all of them are pretty cept for her..i think i prove my point and as for "mike" im not a redneck hick i live in the city and i also listen to hip hop and stuff so you shouldnt make false ignorant statements like natalie xoxo pce toby rox mai sox |
7/23/2003 |
| June | April your statement is an example of ignorance of what our country stands for. | 7/23/2003 |
| CLARENCE | MAN YOU GOTTA GET SOME HELP ANN. SOUNDS LIKE YOU GOT ISSUES ON TOP OF ISSUES. SO EVERYBODY ELSE WHAT'S THE TOPIC TODAY? | 7/23/2003 |
| wuz | Natalie Maine and the DC-very talented, but lacking in any sense at all. Too much money + no self discipline = Dixie Chicks. | 7/23/2003 |
| April | I used to love the Dixie Chicks. But what Natalie said and her attitude still today isn't an example of "freedom of speech", it's an example of her disrespect and ignorance for our country and what it stands for. | 7/23/2003 |
| ann coulter | i'm going out for awhile | 7/23/2003 |
| ann coulter | what's this all about anyway? | 7/23/2003 |
| ann coulter | still no cell phone | 7/23/2003 |
| ann coulter | found my watch! | 7/23/2003 |
| ann coulter | and my watch | 7/23/2003 |
| ann coulter | now i can't find my cell phone. i wonder if the guy who came over last night took it | 7/23/2003 |
| angela | I don't care that Natalie said what she said. Hell, I think it is good that we have freedom of speech, but what bothers me, is that she wasn't an adult about it. She shouldn't have made that comment at that time or place. Yes, we do have the right to freedom of speech, but there are just times when people know that you don't say certain things, not saying they can't cause something terrible would happen to them, just that, it is not appropriate. | 7/23/2003 |
| Nell | chicopee | 7/23/2003 |
| Jeanette | No Country boy I did not serve in any branch of the military, but that does not mean I can't point out the hypocrisy of those who attacked Clinton for not serving in the military but support Bush and Cheney, even though they avoided service in Vietnam too. Saying that Natalie Maines is a coward because she said what she said in the UK instead of in front of Americans is absolutely preposterous. Certainly she knew that what she said would get back to the US, and she has repeated that she does not agree with the Bush policies. Apparently, you don't believe in freedome of speech, unless someone agrees with you. That's sad. | 7/23/2003 |
| angela | Oh my goodness.. I am soo sorry for my spelling.. I think I got my point acrossed though.. you guys knew what I was saying. | 7/23/2003 |
| Country boy | Jeanette did nat say " I don't think we should be risking American lives in Iraq" during the concert or after the concert? There is a big difference between during and after the concert. And yes I know the people at the concert new who she was, but they were not AMERICANS! Thats what I'm trying to say. If they had guts they would have said it infront of AMERICANS! OK!? Do you understand now? Oh yes before I go I would like add more thing. AT least Bush SERVED! Unlike clinton! How about you? Did you serve in a military branch? If you did good for you. If you din't well then shut up about Bush! | 7/23/2003 |
| bert | This confusion can easily be avoided if you pronounce the word intended aloud. If it has a voiced Z sound, then it's "lose." If it has a hissy S sound, then it's "loose." Here are examples of correct usage: "He tends to lose his keys." "She lets her dog run loose." Note that when "lose" turns into "losing" it loses its "E." |
7/23/2003 |
| frank | LOSE = LOSE....NOT LOOSE! and LOSING = LOSING....NOT LOOSING loose is loose as in the rope is loose! to lose something is lose! |
7/23/2003 |
| angela | Ann... this is not good. You can not live your life this way, you need to get some help. Not help with drugs or alcohol, but therapy or check yourself into the Hamilton Center. If you keep on this track, you will probably loose your job, which will lead into loosing your kids, then you will really be in the dumps. If I was you, I would shape up now, and find something that will make you happy. Believe that is what you need to do. | 7/23/2003 |
| ann coulter | i drifted off | 7/23/2003 |
| ann coulter | i have now hit rock bottom. i went out for a drink and some guy came home with me. i don't even know his name. i think it was something like james or marty whatever. god i need some sleep. | 7/23/2003 |
| angela | I can't believe this.. drugs and alcohol won't do any good. You are crazy if you think it will change! | 7/22/2003 |
| ann coulter | god i haven't had any good weed since law school. i wish i had some now. | 7/22/2003 |
| jeery | i reccomend some drugs too, marijuana will calm you down. | 7/22/2003 |
| ann coulter | god i wish i had some | 7/22/2003 |
| jeery | just drink some booze ann, it will help | 7/22/2003 |
| ann coulter | i just woke up. i am so screwed | 7/22/2003 |
| Jeanette | Angela, I know that Clinton did the same thing as Cheney. EVERYONE knows that Clinton did the same thing as Cheney. The difference is that people called Clinton a draft dodger for doing it, but Cheney was never scrutinized. Cheney was Secretary of Defense during one Gulf War and VP during another. And yes, Bush could have gone, IF he had signed up for combat. Instead, the joined a unit that was not going and missed quite a few weekends while he was a member of the guard. Do you think your brothers or my uncle would have gotten away with that? The irony is that two men who are supposedly so pro-military opted out of serving themselves. |
7/22/2003 |
| angela | Bush could have gone, the service didn't send his unit, my brothers unit didn't go, does that mean they have connections? Hell no, and I bet you anything Bush was probably put on warning. All units are put on warning when there is a chance of war or when a war is actually going on. And check this out, Clinton done the same thing as Cheney, he deferred service due to education too. | 7/22/2003 |
| Jeanette | Check it out, Angela. Cheney deferred service in Vietnam citing educational and marriage obligations. Bush joined a National Guard unit (that was not sent to Vietnam) and was trained to pilot planes that were not ever going to be used in the war, guaranteeing that he would not have to go. My uncle's unit was sent to Vietnam in 1968 and he spent a year over there, leaving behind my aunt and my two cousins. I guess he didn't have the right connections. | 7/22/2003 |
| angela | Jeanette.. how do you know that Bush and Cheney did that? Also, my brother are in the national guards.. he almost got sent over there but Turkey decided not to let us use their land. Ok, like he says.. they signed up for a reason, they know the chances that they are going to face. They have signed up to help protect our freedom, as well as, others freedom. And with the whole Natalie thing.. she did not act like an adult about it, I mean, she shouldn't have said what she said during that time. |
7/22/2003 |
| Jeanette | Country boy, I read what you said, and I read what Gregory said. I think Gregory's comments were valid. You said Natalie Maines was a coward because she said what she said on foreign soil. I don't think that is cowardly. I can't speak for Gregory, but I think he was trying to say "Why is saying what you believe in front of a crowd in the UK cowardly?" Everyone there knew who she was, so I agree that it took guts on her part. All of us are able to post our beliefs here with out posting our full names and like you, I would not post my last name here either. The difference is that Natalie Maines didn't do it anonymously and I think that is anything but cowardly. You said that Natalie Maines never said that she didn't think we should be risking American lives in Iraq, but she did say that when she was asked about her comments. About fan's comment, there is a difference between Bush and our troops "fighting" for freedom. Bush is not risking his life like they are. In fact, Bush and Cheney were both able to escape duty in Vietnam while many young men their age were serving in Southeast Asia so neither one has ever defended our freedoms in any way. | 7/22/2003 |
| Country boy | Jeanette I did not say that nat put down our troops. Read what gregory said and read what i said. It should explain a little better. Gegory said nat said she said "She said what she said because she didn't think we should be risking american lives in iraq." In which she never did. So there is my part of the question. Leave me alone. | 7/21/2003 |
| angela | Wow.. a lot has went on.. Country boy.. I am sorry for your loss Goe... don't say that to her! Ann.... maybe you could talk to a priest, you know, do that confession thing.. that might work.. did you spend time with your kids? |
7/21/2003 |
| ann coulter | i've done so many terrible things in my life, hurt so many people, said so many things that i wish i had not and yet i am helpless to stop it. what's the point? | 7/21/2003 |
| goe | just end it ann | 7/21/2003 |
| ann coulter | this has to be the worst day ever | 7/21/2003 |
| ann coulter | i had to come home because i just was so lost at work. i don't know how much more i can take. | 7/21/2003 |
| Michael | Thank you jeanette, point proven. She never ever put down the troops. | 7/21/2003 |
| fan | I think the Angry American was referring to the term "fight" in all instances, for example Bush is "fighting" for our rights in a non-physical way himself. | 7/21/2003 |
| Jeanette | Angry American and Country boy, would you please answer a question? Who has "put down those who are out there fighting to protect that right [freedom of speech] for you"? If you think Natalie Maines put down any of our troops, you need to read her comments again. She said, "Just so you know, we're ashamed the President of the United States is from Texas." The President of the United States never fought for our freedoms, and Natalie Maines never said anything bad about the troops who are. In fact, she spoke about that in her interview with Diane Sawyer: "…we support the troops. We support the troops l00 percent. We have said that from day one. People have quoted we don’t support the troops, which is the opposite of anything we have ever said. There is not a correlation between not wanting a war and not supporting the troops who are doing their job…." I support our troops but I strongly disagree with this war. That is my right as an American, whether you like it or not Angry American. | 7/21/2003 |
| fan | no he is not..1 fan is fan | 7/20/2003 |
| spongebob | the one who uses the name fan is really named patrick | 7/20/2003 |
| fan | Like Bush is going to waste his time commenting on something somebody said. Nobody has time for such things, especially the President. A real President? How do you define a "real President", because I thought Bush was a "fake" President..... Yeah he sure wants to divide the people, that's the way to get re-elected... | 7/20/2003 |
| impeach bush | clinton lied about having sex with an intern. bush lied about evidence to get support for a war. a lie is a lie. |
7/20/2003 |
| Jeanette | Bush's reaction to Natalie Maines comment says so much about him and his motives. A real President would have responded by saying something like "I'm sorry she feels like that but the reason we want to do this is so the people of Iraq will have the right to speak as freely as she and other Americans can." Then again, that would have been a lie, because that's not why he's fighting this war, and Bush is more interested in dividing people than uniting them. | 7/20/2003 |
| fin | yeah I cant wait to bash someone in public and have my friends that are with me at the time to get death threats...real smart. | 7/20/2003 |
| gregory | using a name like "country boy" instead of your real name seems pretty cowardly to me if you really believe what you say. it took a lot of guts for natalie maines to say what she said no matter where she said it. you might not like her but she spoke her mind and she was right. she said what she said because she didn't think we should be risking american lives in iraq. you may be willing to risk other peoples lives but you would probably feel different if someone special to you had been one of the 240 or so killed over there. | 7/20/2003 |
| hanson | country boy you absolutly correct!!!! | 7/19/2003 |
| tarzan's lady | country boy totally agree | 7/19/2003 |
| country boy | If the Dixie chicks had so much guts to say what they said how come they said it in another country? Thats seems a little bit of cowardism if you ask me. | 7/19/2003 |
| DaveFlorida | Ian? Are you volunteering? | 7/19/2003 |
| jeek | or Darryl Worley | 7/19/2003 |
| Ian Foley | the troops in Iraq have been crying for relief, but Pentagon has no plan for rotation. why don't Toby Keith, Darryl Wolley, and Kid Rock volunteer to go over there and relieve at least three troops? | 7/19/2003 |
| tk4ever | please i need to know where to find the shirtless pictures of Toby!!! | 7/19/2003 |
| Michael | Thanks angela | 7/19/2003 |
| angela | Same here Michael.. I am sorry for what I said as well. No.. it isn't too late. I am the kind to forgive and forget. | 7/18/2003 |
| jester | TOO LATE LOSER! | 7/18/2003 |
| Michael | also angela, its probably too late, but i want to aplogize to you for the other day, I didn't mean what I said, I was having a bad day. | 7/18/2003 |
| Michael | a few days ago someone put my name saying god doesnt give alchol to nuts. |
7/18/2003 |
| Michael | Well for the first time, I agree with Angela about ann. and also someone needs to stop with putting someones name for other people | 7/18/2003 |
| angela | Well... someone is at it again with the name thing. Ann... do something that makes you happy.. if you have kids, take them to a park, to the movies.. spend time with you kids, they can make you happy. Any luck with the ocean wave music or the thunder/storm music? |
7/18/2003 |
| fan | thats not6 me ann | 7/18/2003 |
| fan | shut up ann you whacked out drunk | 7/18/2003 |
| ann coulter | i am so unhappy | 7/18/2003 |
| angela | I love country music. I love all music, but country is on the top of the list. | 7/17/2003 |
| Hardee | i hate you | 7/17/2003 |
| La Trena | I hate country music. | 7/17/2003 |
| CLARENCE | WHATS TODAYS TOPIC? | 7/17/2003 |
| angela | Well... I guess it ain't locked up. Thats cool. | 7/17/2003 |
| tk4ever | before this shuts down does anybody know where i can find shirtless pics of toby??? | 7/17/2003 |
| Jerry! | haahha i tricked you all, this discussion isn't over by a long shot! | 7/17/2003 |
| Natalie Maines | I want to blow Toby Keith! | 7/17/2003 |
| Michael | well it still looks open to me, its past 2:30 |
7/17/2003 |
| fan | using my 2name again..... | 7/17/2003 |
| fan | I am going to miss this board. I am proud that I voted for Toby Keith 25382 times. All of you who voted for the Dixie C__ts don't count! | 7/17/2003 |
| angela | Why will you be on tv? |
7/17/2003 |
| ann coulter | goodbye everybody and look for me on tv | 7/17/2003 |
| Michael | god doesn't provide alcohol to nuts | 7/17/2003 |
| ann coulter | god i need a drink | 7/17/2003 |
| Michael | well, if any one wants to argue for the fun of it, we can meet some time in the future of the big brother board about the contestant being booted off | 7/16/2003 |
| Michael | Well im gonna say bye to everyone too. even I had some people i wont miss, and YOU know who you are. Im not gonna mention any names, ummm hmmm angela. oops. Bye anyway | 7/16/2003 |
| Michael | Well im gonna say bye to everyone too. even I had some people i wont miss, and YOU know who you are. Im not gonna mention any names, ummm hmmm angela. oops. Bye anyway | 7/16/2003 |
| fan | good talking with you Angela! | 7/16/2003 |
| angela | Well, i might not be getting back on here, so i am glad I have got to speak to a lot of you... however... there are some that I will not miss talking to.. YOU know who I am talking about. Have fun if you go off to another board. I might not go to any others. Byebye! | 7/16/2003 |
| angela | Actually, Whitney, my brother almost got sent over there. But Turkey decided not to let us use their land. He was ready to go. I saw it as that we were doing a good deed by setting those people free of Saddam. That is what the war was called "Iraqi Freedom" Ok, so alot of the soldiers over are ok with what they are fighting for. Now, I'm not saying that there ain't any that don't want to fight, because there are some, but that is in any war. | 7/16/2003 |
| Michael | Thank you whitney, I have finally found someone that agrees that the president is a liar | 7/16/2003 |
| Whitney | I agree w/Garner. We shouldn't even be putting our soldiers in that position angela. I am sure you would agree with me if your brother were there. I am glad that some of the families of troops are coming forth and expressing their concern about the lies Bush told to get people to support this war. | 7/16/2003 |
| bj | Id like to see Natalie blow toby on stage!thats probbaly the only thing her mouth is good for! but Toby is probaly afraid of what he would catch! | 7/16/2003 |
| Terry F. | stupid gooks fighting each other now... | 7/16/2003 |
| angela | Ok, hey Garner, I have already told other people on here this.. Toby wrote that song.. called up Cledus T. Judd and asked him to listen to it.. he said he felt like he should write it for his father, he wasn't even going to release it as a single, but Cledus and the soldiers told him he should release it as a single On the whole thing about them killing our soldiers.. you are making it sound like they all are, which they ain't. Not all of them are like that.. just like in America.. some people kill other people.. not all of us do. |
7/16/2003 |
| fan | Well you essentially said that statement by saying we solved nothing through this war. Time once again is the factor here. We cant do everything at once. Yes they are murdering our soldiers. That is front page news, what is your point? Listen, I know the circumstances of the war are difficult but the war in its entirety was not all pointless. Soldiers are dying, and that's not good. We need to finish this up and get out as soon as possible. Hopefully we can liberate those others. Bush is trying with his road map to peace. Sure some of his moves are questionable, but hey what prez doesn't have to make tough decisions and act on them to his best knowledge. I am not 4twisting anything except my wrist from typing so much. thanks |
7/16/2003 |
| Garner | I agree, Fan, that whether TK wrote a song for his father is a different matter than whether Iraq has WMD's. We don't know answer to the former, though he says he did and that would be good enough for most of us. As for the WMD's, we've had 2 months to find them. If we had gathered so much intelligence on them, you think we would have found them by now, right? Speaking of putting words into peoples' mouths and not addressing issues, here's a quote by you: "I'm sorry you don't feel for the liberated Iraqis. I guess you wanted them to live in hell. How do they spell trouble for the economy? " Where did I ever say that I don't "feel for the liberated Iraqis?" Nowhere! I said that Iraqi people are murdering our soldiers, which is true. Why else would our soldiers be told not to accept anything to eat or drink from anyone? "Live in hell"? Well let's start liberating the oppressed people in Saudi Arabia and Iran and North Korea, where famine has killed millions in the past 10 years. You are the one who is putting words into my mouth, Fan. And nowhere did I say that the "liberated Iraqis...spell trouble for the economy." Bush didn't need any help in ruining it. Fan, get a life and stop twisting what other people say. |
7/16/2003 |
| Garner | Yes, Whitney. Thanks for the support! | 7/16/2003 |
| fan | I have backed up my claims. FUTK is pretty obvious. Oh and no, I am not sure he wrote it for him, but him mentioning him in the song is a pretty good indication. Many sons do? ok. Oh and my opinions are on a level of no comparison to your opinions. Whether Toby Keith wrote a song for his father or Iraq has WMD...quite a difference. Oh and failing to address issues brought up before is a classic garner. Keep it up! |
7/16/2003 |
| Whitney | GARNER IS THE MAN! (I assume you are a man? LOL) | 7/16/2003 |
| Garner | Fan, with your winning personality and social skills, I am amazed that you have to restrict your life to this bulletin board. What will you do when they lock it? A site like this is for OPINIONS in case you didn't notice. Where have you backed up your claims? Do you know for sure that FUTK meant what you think it did? Do you know for sure that Toby Keith wrote "The Angry American" to honor his father, just because he said he did? If so, why doesn't he honor his father by taking his surname (as many sons do)? No, you don't know any of those things for sure, but you are stating your opinions with scant evidence, just like everyone else is, so don't demand from others what you aren't able to give. |
7/16/2003 |
| Garner | Angela, I have to disagree strongly with you about our President, and also about the Iraqi people. Bush would be a much better President if he would listen to Colin Powell and ignore Rumsfeld and Cheney. The best thing that could come out of all of this is Colin Powell running for President and winning in 2004. And if things are so great for the Iraqi people why are they murdering our soldiers? If this administration thought that they could go in and remove Saddam Hussein and that everything would take care of itself after he was gone, they are stupid. As for you Fan, it's not really my job to give you evidence about why the world is no more safe today than it was before the war started. I think you could find that yourself if you know how to read, but here are a few examples: 1. North Korea still has nuclear capability and is run by a dictator who has murdered as many of his people as Hussein did. It's interesting that we KNOW North Korea has functioning nuclear facilities and yet we declared war on Iraq on a hunch. Maybe it was because Iraq has oil? 2. Osama bin Laden is still alive. There was a story in the Philadelphia Inquirer last month about a poll that showed a majority of Americans think that Saddam Hussein masterminded the 9/11 attacks and that we have found WMD's in Iraq. It's scary that American's are that poorly informed. Maybe that's why so many of them supported the war? The point is that the man who masterminded the deadliest attacks ever on American soil is still out there, and we're going after someone else. 3. Saddam Hussein is still alive. W and Daddy Bush have one thing in common: Neither one knows how to finish a job. Another thing is that they spell trouble for the economy. Let's hope they have one more thing in common--NOT getting re-elected. There are 3 things for you, Fan. I won't even get into the unrest in Indonesia, where the hatred for the US is at an all time high, the suicide bombings in Israel, the trouble in Liberia, Kenya, Zimbabwe, and many other African nations, the social unrest in Argentina due to the economy (which was brought down in part by poor deals with companies like Enron and Halliburton). Of course, you don't care about all of those places, because Fox News Channel doesn't report on them. If you think that the world is more safe just because there haven't been any more 9/11-style attacks, you are very naive. By that standard, we could say that the world was a safer place when Clinton was President, because nothing like that happened when he was in office. Of course that's an unfair comparison. Saying that the world is more safe because there haven't been any terrorist attacks since the war started is like a cigarette smoker saying that the threat of cancer is a lie because they've smoked for years and haven't gotten cancer. The threat is there, and we haven't done anything to get rid of it. |
7/16/2003 |
| Michael | well it looks like i made my point, bye every one, and i agree with you garner | 7/16/2003 |
| angela | I would have to disagree with you Garner, the president is a smart man, and he is in a tough postion. He did what he thought was right. At least now the Iraqi people free now. At least we have gave hope to people. I think that is a great thing. Ann... hey, if this is the only place you can talk, then feel free to talk on this board. |
7/16/2003 |
| fan | Garner, please show us how the world is no safer today than it was before we went to war. Where is your evidence? | 7/16/2003 |
| Michael | ummm no angela, thats not how it happened, i guess another lie. You told me to shut up after i was defending my self from fan so i told yoooooooou to find a new board. And once againg for the 5,000 time, you still havent showed me where i bashed someones opinion. | 7/16/2003 |
| Garner | It's incredible that this is still an issue. It's becoming more and more obvious that the Bush administration lied about weapons of mass destruction and Iraq's nuclear capability in order to justify a war. They are sacrificing American lives for a war that should never have been fought. And don't start this crap about how we got rid of Saddam Hussein. He's still out there and the world is no more safe today than it was before we went into Iraq. It's certainly a lot less safe for our soldiers. The same "liberal media" that kept Monica Lewinski and Whitewater in our faces is not demanding answers from this administration, and that's an outrage. Bill Clinton lied about getting a BJ from an intern. George W. Bush lied about intelligence gathered about WMD's and nuclear capability. The result is dead soldiers and further instability in the Middle East. I don't expect the right wing to demand answers. After all, these are the same people who think that murdering doctors and bombing clinics is justifiable. For those of you who think the word "liberal" is a dirty word, consider this: Timothy McVeigh and Eric Rudolph were "conservatives" and look at all of the pain and suffering they brought to innocent people in this country. When was the last time a "liberal" decided to bomb a courthouse or a clinic or an Olympic park because they were angry? | 7/16/2003 |
| ann coulter | ok | 7/16/2003 |
| Susan | Ann please give it a rest! I don't care how unahppy you are. If it's that bad go get some professional help but please stop filling this board with your insane ramblings. | 7/16/2003 |
| ann coulter | i couldn't sleep last night so i thought i would have a little vodka and i ended up drinking a whole bottle of finlandia and my head feels like it is going to explode and my eyes are so red | 7/16/2003 |

| angela | Michael... this stuff started out as simple as just opinions, and we wrote back to the other person saying we disagreed with them, and told them our opinion. Then you came a long and bashed everyone for not thinking the way you thought. You started to tell everybody they should find a new board, then thats when we started to tell you to find a new board. Go ahead and call me a little bitch, I don't care. I sure in the hell don't care what YOU call me. I think it is pretty pathetic that you would like for me to rot in hell... I might not like you but I would never ever wish that upon you... not to anybody. | 7/16/2003 |
| fan | It doesn't even make sense, Angela was3 never mad at me. | 7/16/2003 |
| fan | Wow, no people are using other names to make comments. This is getting dumb. 5 I can only think of one person that might be doing so and he knows who he is. Enough. | 7/16/2003 |
| fan | No Angela don't be sorry. When you get angry you make me so hot! | 7/16/2003 |
| angela | I am sorry if I made you mad fan | 7/15/2003 |
| angela | I'm sorry about making you mad fan | 7/15/2003 |
| fan | Angela you make me so hot | 7/15/2003 |
| angela | I ain't sorry now for what I said about Michael.. hell.. I even tried to apologize | 7/15/2003 |
| fan | I am sorry for all of my posts. I am just horrible. | 7/15/2003 |

| ann coulter | another night without sleep. i am already dreading it | 7/15/2003 |
| fan | DAMN!!!! | 7/15/2003 |
| Michael | As a matter of fact angela you were the first one to start with me, you are the biggest hipocrit here. Remember, I stated my opinion and you told me to shut up. So if you dont like what i have to say bump you. You think your so high and mighty trying to play head doctor with ann. But your just like the rest, a little know it all hipocrit. Im glad this board will be locked in a few days, that means we wont have to read your little crap. Or it could be a person like you that lied and wrote that message on the board saying it was closing. So next time you write a little comment of advice, or to attack like you usually do, dont put my name, I dont wont your name associated with mine in any way, I dont wont to rott in hell with you. Thanks | 7/15/2003 |
| Michael | same here Angela, I wouldnt care if you were run down by a semi, but things sometimes dont work out the way you want them, so.... | 7/15/2003 |
| ann coulter | i am going to get a bite to eat. i haven't eaten all day. all i have had is coffee. i want to talk to you tonight angela so i hope you will be here too. | 7/15/2003 |
| ann coulter | i was able to take a short nap but then the kids in the next apartment started making a lot of noise outside and now i am wide awake again. i hate kids. | 7/15/2003 |
| fan | *forgotten | 7/15/2003 |
| fan | Whitney , have you fotgotten about the FUTK shirt she wore on National Television? | 7/15/2003 |
| Whitney | Bark87 when Natalie said what she said it was at a concert too! So there was no difference whatsoever except that Natalie stated an opinion and Toby fabricated a photo! | 7/15/2003 |
| Bark87 | Whitney when Toby k. put that poster of nat and Hussein was at his concert for his fans to see. Nat did all that crap in public for all to hear! So in a way he did. | 7/15/2003 |
| angela | That sucks that this board will be locked in two days. But hey, here is a happy thing about it.. we don't have to read what Michael writes... I do appoligize however for what I wrote. Somebody has done that to me too. However I still don't like you michael, but I am sorry. Ann... everything will be alright... just relax.. go pamper yourself by going to a spa.. that always work for us girls :) |
7/15/2003 |
| ann coulter | i am getting kinda sleepy but i am not sure if that means i can sleep | 7/15/2003 |
| ann coulter | i've had a rough day | 7/15/2003 |
| ann coulter | what does that mean? | 7/15/2003 |
| Whitney | Did Toby Keith exhibit "the grace and style of country music artists" when he had a photo made of Natalie Maines hugging Saddam Hussein? Or were you referring to the grace and style of Vince Gill and Amy Grant leaving their spouses for each other? | 7/15/2003 |
| Mariah | Natalie Maines' attack on "The Angry American" was unprofessional. Her subsequent actions and remarks lack the grace and style of country music artists. While other musical genres come and go, country music remains stable and its fans are loyal. If Ms. Maines is trying to gain mainstream approval by her ascerbic remarks, she should leave country music and try her hand at....maybe rap? | 7/15/2003 |
| Michael | listen angela, you are one more bitch. I didnt put that message about ann, someone put in my name. so go to hell or a new board | 7/15/2003 |
| angela | Micheal.. you are soo inconsiderate! I can't believe that.. why don't you just shut your mouth. Someone is trying to ask for advice. Why don't you get off of this board! Man, I really don't like you. Ann... do NOT listen to Michael... maybe you can go to a music store, they could help you find some ocean music. |
7/15/2003 |
| ann coulter | is that something i should try to help me sleep? | 7/15/2003 |
| Michael | Ann, put a sock in it already | 7/15/2003 |
| ann coulter | i listened to the radio last night while i was trying to sleep hoping that i would hear something by the ocean waves and that song by kylie minogue came on the can't get you out of my head song and i couldn't get it out of my head all night. everytime i would start to fall asleep that song would come back into my head and wake me up so i barely slept last night and so i got out of bed and made some coffee and i had the whole pot of coffee and now i am wired and i called the office and they told me to stay home. i wish i had something to help me sleep. | 7/15/2003 |
| Michael | You are real annoying angela, mind your buisness | 7/15/2003 |
| angela | Micheal.. you really do know how to push peoples buttons Ann.. I have the same problem, long blonde hair, a hate messing with it. It is straight at the top but curly/wavy at the bottom. I always put it in a bun or a pony tail... I always keep it out of the way. Did you find the ocean music? |
7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | i am feeling better. i went to see finding nemo and it was so sweet. thank you all for your concern. i just hate the way i look. i have long blond hair and i hate the way it just lies there. | 7/14/2003 |
| a women | If your so unhappy the way you look. change your self. | 7/14/2003 |
| Tarzan's Lady | ann.... i hope that whatever is bothering u will turn out ok in the end. | 7/14/2003 |
| a man | ann we want to know why your selfesteem is so low?Thats what we want to know. | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann I really would like to give you some taco flavored kisses! | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann are you there? | 7/14/2003 |
| fan | hope all is well Ann | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | I hope I didn't frighten you earlier Ann. I hope we can stay in contact. | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | Ann are you OK? Are you monitoring the board? I really would like to talk to you and help you sometime. | 7/14/2003 |
| Michael | Angela, if you see me small and miserable, you need to go take a look in the mirror, and you said your glad you dont know me, same here, I wouldnt want to know you to save my life!!! You are one of the most ignorant people on this board. You and fan need to get togethter. You two deserve each other. | 7/14/2003 |
| T.K.F.U | fan, you need a muzzle | 7/14/2003 |
| angela | I think it is good that Jen is there for Ann, that is really nice and caring | 7/14/2003 |
| fan | jen and ann, you 2 need Instant messenger! | 7/14/2003 |

| ann coulter | do you have an e-mail address where i can write to you in private? | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | How about telling me what you look like? | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | well it would help if you would tell me what you want to know | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | Anything you feel like telling me! | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | what do you want to know? | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | I am sure that there is lots to love Ann. Tell me about yourself. | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | why should i love myself nobody else does | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | Do not get the wrong idea Ann! I just want you to see how much you have to live for. You need to learn to love yourself that's all!!! | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | taco kisses? excuse me? i am not interested in doing that. i just need someone to talk to but thanks anyway | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | You need someone to cheer you up Ann! You need some taco flavored kisses!!! | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | hi jennifer. | 7/14/2003 |
| Jennifer | I will talk to you Ann! | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | i need to talk to somebody | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | are you there angela? | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | i don't feel like going out | 7/14/2003 |
| fan | Don't be so sad Patrick...Why have you not added to the discussion here? I can only assume you are using an alias. 25,000? I only vote once. | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | i am going to look for the ocean waves music today. what are they listed under angela? | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | i called in sick. i just couldn't face another monday | 7/14/2003 |
| Patrick | You should be happy fan, considering that at least 25,000 of those votes for Toby were from you. Katherine Harris and Jeb Bush would be proud of you, I am sure. | 7/14/2003 |
| fan | Well if it's over, looks like Toby took the poll. GO TOBY! | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | i hate the way i look | 7/14/2003 |
| Cherie | angela if you think of michael as someone small and miserable just because you disagree with him that doesn't say much about you. | 7/14/2003 |
| angela | Micheal... i see you as someone soo small and miserable.. you are someone that I am thankful I don't know you Ann... GOD loves you! For sleep, put something over your eyes, that always helped for me and listen to the ocean waves music, that is very relaxing Fan... you rock |
7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | i need something to help me sleep | 7/14/2003 |
| ann coulter | i don't think i can look at myself in the mirror without crying | 7/14/2003 |
| nm4ever&ever! | Forget about that gross Toby Kieth, let's see some shirless pictures of Natalie Manes! She is so hot! | 7/13/2003 |
| tk4ever | Please before everybody leaves someody tell me where I can get some shirtless pics of Toby!!! | 7/13/2003 |
| Michael | I think im throwing my fair well tour too. People you have to let go. If O.J simpson can still run the streets killing people and get away with it, I don't see why anyone would care what Natalie had to say, it was her mouth, God gave it to her. As for me, I still think the president of the united states is a liar, and a crook. He had to send his brother to Tallahassee to help him cheat the votes to win, so.... As for the rest of the Toby Keith fans, get over it.... Fan, you need to give everyone a chance, and stop attacking people if they take up for the chicks. I am closing now, goodbye. Michael |
7/13/2003 |
| ann coulter | i am so unhappy :-( |
7/13/2003 |
| fan | Thank you Chick Fan, I agree with your comments. Thanks Tami, I understand. |
7/13/2003 |
| Chick Fan | Hey Fan, I'll speak on behalf of the role model comments. I disagree with her statment fully. When you are in the public eye your actions are seen as that of a role model wheather or not you want them to or not. Depends on what type of role model you want to me, if you think her actions were wrong in terms of her political views. Some might argue that she is demonstrating one of the U.S.'s greatest rights that of free speach and truth. Or you might argue that she is unpatriotic and that she is a poor example of a U.S. citizen. For me it is a little of both, I respect her for being honest enough not to lie even if it might hurt her career, and a little sad that she was petty when it came to a fellow artist clear personal views. Isn't this about the music? or is it about politics? |
7/13/2003 |
| Patriot Goddess | Here is I hope my farewell tour... Susan, I did read the whole post and you did say; all of these things, but your meaning was very clear. I agree to disagree with you, you are passionate and strong in your views. For this I respect you fully, your manner I respect a little less but clearly understand your need to defend you home, family, beliefs and country. Hold firm never loose your passion, and faith they will move you through all of lifes trials. I just don't feel it important to debate with you as we are clearly of different minds and both adults who can be more productive with our time. Not sure that the question that was asked in this poll was ever really answered my me. I like both of their music, seems hard to seperate political views with the music. I don't like the manner in which DC chose to voice all of their opinions or even their statements, but TK sank to their level in his actions as well and in that lost a lot of my respect as well. In time we will all look back at their actions and say why did we invest so much time in a childest forum. |
7/13/2003 |
| Tami G. | Fan what I mean in simple terms is it is okay for you to dictate what you think is our constitutional rights but when someone disputes you, you mock them. Get a grip. I agree that the words and actions of the Natalie were in the very least in poor taste but that is her opinion and at least she has the guts to stand up for what she believes instead of hiding out on the worlds almost silliest board posting about it. You have valid strong points that would be better heard with a little less of what I just did and if you didn't catch my meaning that is belittling others to make you seem smarter. |
7/13/2003 |
| fan | Well yes Elisha we all have our own opinions of who are role models and I believe all the people you mentioned are role models. Also if you read it correctly, I said "TRY" and you can't tell me that what she said about drinking and having sex is not bad. YES, she sure can, I have no problem with that, but please don't say it when many young fans can hear it. I guess you find corrupting people alright. I already know your comeback to that one, Toby Keith corrupts through his violence...no he is standing up for our nation and saying fight for our nation, not go out have sex, drink, get raped, get pregnant,etc... Come on rationalize with me Elisha. Oh and you are a teacher right? Just please answer me that. |
7/13/2003 |
| allison | Alright im just going to say what i said befor on a dif. website. I like the dixi chicks' music but i dont agree with what they are saying. My mother is a soldier fighting in Iraq right now. Natalie should think about this: If we weren't fighting this war right now than our govronment would be a dictatorship just like Iraq and she would have been shot by now because she likes to voice her opinion. Heres 2 simple steps Natalie should follow 1. OPEN MOUTH 2. INSERT FOOT. enough said. Oh yeah, GO T.K.!! |
7/13/2003 |
| Elisha | Maybe no one has said anything about her comment because (1) they don't spend every waking moment monitoring this message board the way you do or (2) they realize that country/pop/rock stars, actors, and athletes aren't meant to be role models. The role models are the soldiers who risk their lives protecting our freedoms. The role models are the policemen who fight crime. The role models are the firemen who rush into burning buildings to save lives while putting their own in peril. The role models are the good teachers who work many more than 40 hours a week and spend their own money for supplies so that the one student who wants to learn will get an education and make something out of life because someone inspired them. The role models are parents who teach their kids what's right and what's wrong instead of relying on others to do so. | 7/13/2003 |
| fan | Wow no chick supporters had anything to say about Natalie's role model comment. surprising... | 7/13/2003 |
| THE TRUTH | Susan, I apologize if I made you angry. The reason I made the comment about the origins of "Tie a Yellow Ribbon" was because of your statement on 7/6/2003: "Truth, Actually, it is about a guy getting out of a prison, which if you check into the writer you will find, is not about a prison such as jail, it is about a guy getting out of a p.o.w. camp." I remember when that song became a "patriotic song" in the minds of many people, including myself. It was during the Iran hostage crisis when people started tying yellow ribbons around tree branches as a sign of remembrance when the ordeal kept dragging on and on. I just thought that it was ironic that a song written about someone passing bad checks had taken on another meaning, but music can have that power. I wanted to set the record straight, because you seemed to get the impression that I had not read your entire post, when in fact I had. Unlike fan, who tends to make personal comments about people with whom he disagrees, you keep the discussion on topic, and I agree with that. Even though I may disagree with some of your comments, I respect your opinions and I believe that we both strongly support each others' rights to have them. That's the reason I wanted to clarify what I said, and say I'm sorry what I was trying to say was misconstrued. |
7/13/2003 |
| tk4ever | Does anybody know where I can find shirtless pics of Toby? | 7/13/2003 |
| Michael | well angela, i take it you know how to read, you can flip through the script and find out | 7/13/2003 |
| ann coulter | oh good. iron chef is on. maybe the broccoli will make me sleepy. | 7/13/2003 |
| ann coulter | i can't sleep. i wish i had something to help me sleep. | 7/13/2003 |
| angela | Wow! I have missed out on a lot? Does someone want to sum it all up for me.. preferably not Micheal. Susan, you rock, as does fan. I didn't take the time to read all the messages from my last entry, so someone please sum it up for me. Thanks. Toby Keith all the way! | 7/13/2003 |
| travelin sol... | Two days past eighteen He was waitin' for the bus in his army greens Sat down in a booth at a café there Gave his order to the girl with a bow in her hair He's a little shy so she gave him a smile So he said would you mind sittin' down for a while And talkin' to me I'm feelin' a little low She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go So they went down and they sat on the pier He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care I've got no one to send a letter to Would you mind if I sent one back here to you? CHORUS: I cried Never gonna hold the hand of another guy Too young for him they told her Waitin' for the love of the travelin' soldier Our love will never end Waitin' for the soldier to come back again Never more to be alone When the letter says a soldier's coming home So the letters came From an army camp In California then Vietnam And he told his heart It might be love And all of the things he was so scared of Said when it's gettin kinda tough over here I think about that day sittin' down at the pier And close my eyes and see your pretty smile Now don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while CHORUS (Martie's fiddle break - Emily's dobro break) One Friday night at a football game The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang A man said folks would you bow your heads For the list of local Vietnam dead Cryin' all alone under the stands Was the piccolo player in the marching band And one name read and no one really cared But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair CHORUS |
7/12/2003 |
| ann coulter | i was doing a lot better but now i feel a lot worse. it's just hopeless. | 7/12/2003 |
| Susan | Fan, you are fighting a good fight. Keep up the good work. Someone around here has to keep telling these people what an airhead Natalie Maines is at times. She says the most inappropriate things. Keep up the good work. | 7/12/2003 |
| Susan | Patriot Goddess, you seem to have the same problem "Truth" does. you just don't bother to read the whole thing. What I said was..."You say you are a "Patriot Goddess" well you sure as hell don't sound like one to me. If you are patriotic you will stop and think for one moment of how you would feel if you had family and friends that died because of tome psycho. I hope and pray that you didn't, but if you did, do you think they died for nothing? I have a brother who has gone overseas to fight, not just because he was ordered to, but because he wanted to make sure you and I had the right to think for ourselves." I am sorry you lost someone at the hands of a terrorist but I have a big problem with it being said that we are no better than terrorists ourselves. We aren't the ones who made the first move with the Twin Towers attack, we just made sure everyone knew that it was a mistake to do that because they weren't going to get away with it. As for you being military, then I really have problems with some of the stuff you've been saying. How can you say "the troops are only following orders"? You have to know better than that if you are military. At least I would hope you would know that the troops are in the military to defend us in the threat of danger. Yes, I know there is "new intel" that states WMD's might not have been there, but that doesn't excuse the shooting down of our planes in when they are enforcing the no fly zones. It only makes it worse when you think about it... why wouldn't they agree to meet or allow inspectors in to prove there non existance? Why did they take hostages? Why wouldn't they act before the end of the deadlines? Given all the circumstances at the time of the invasion, President Bush was acting in good faith based upon the intel he was given. No one wanted to see war happen right off the bat,we tried. That's why there were several failed attempts at comunication and we were left with no choice. As for the comments made about you thinking about how you would feel, you are in a point and time that you should recognize what is at stake if we just ignored the intel of the time. I agree that everyone has the right to their own opinions. I don'tknow how many more times I can say that, but my whole interest in this debate is because of all the comments about how President Bush was wrong to go into Iraq and send our troops out to try to protect our great nation from the threat of invasion or attack. As for my being high and mighty, boy do you have an ego problem. I have every right to be proud of my husband and family members for being military. Just as you are proud of yours. My bringing my family into this is just to show that there is a lot at stake and I do not appreciate people saying they are ashamed of the President or our troops. The President and our troops go hand in hand. You have to respect them both. People need to stop and think of how all of this has come to be and realize how much is at stake. I, for one, am extremely proud of the job our troops have been doing and I hope and pray that this all ends soon and that as many people as possible come home safely. As for respect and freedom of speech and freedom of opinion, those are all things that have been given to us, but at a very high cost. Those things have cost many people their lives, limbs, eyesight and/or blood. Those people deserve our respect and our prayers and for us to do our best to always remember those who have died so that we may be free.... This "chat" board has had several people on it saying some pretty dumb things and then there are those that take it seriously, freedom comes at a high cost, many have paid that debt and now it is time we support the president in his efforts to protect us from harm. It is NOT the time to go running around saying you are ashamed of him, especially since very few signed up for this task. All I am saying is, be respectful of others, and be respectful of the dead. After all, I wouldn't want to be the one sitting down and all of the sudden, chemical warfare has begun. | 7/12/2003 |
| fan | Alright, just a little tid bit of info I found on Natalie's view of her being a role model: "I don't feel any obligation to be a role model. I don't think any of us do anything that would not be worthy of a role model, but that's not my responsibility, . . . I'm legal to drink, I'm legal to have sex, and I'm comfortable making decisions about my own life." That is just plain horrible...who says that? Ok lets try to corrupt more young girls already...Great example she is setting...Now THAT is arrogance. I know all you Chix supporters will say that she is right and she has no obligation to be a role model, well maybe to some extent, but seriuosly.....it just makes you sound like such a jerk for saying something like that. I personally think being a celebrity and being in the spotlight like that, you should TRY to be a role model. You have all these young fans looking up to you saying "I want to be like her someday". Well if they see stuff like that it almost crushes everything. It almost seems to prove she's doing this all for herself and her bandmates. It's too bad when you have an up an coming popular female group breaking new limits and barriers who don't think they need to be role models. What are your thoughts on this quote of hers? |
7/12/2003 |
| Susan | WOW, ok let's get a few things straight here....first off.... "Truth" maybe you should learn to read a little more, because, I said that yes the song was written about a guy getting out of prison and I also said that if it makes people think about their loved ones then it is patriotic to me. Boy, you sure have got some problems with your reading skills. YOU seem to do a lot of speed reading and skipping a lot of words. And, as for being ashamed of the president, I said that she has the right to her opinion and so does everyone else. However, I think she has handled the whole thing in a less than tactful way. You really need to read everything before you comment on it. My whole point on this "patriotic" song thing is that if a song makes you stop and think and remember your loved ones then it is patriotic because a "patriotic" song is intended to make people think about the sacrifices people have made for freedom and rights. If anyone here is acting all high and mighty it is you because you think you are the only one with an opinion that counts. The difference between Toby Keith's and Natalie Maines' patriotism is very simple. Toby Keith sings to honor our troops and to honor his father's memory. Natalie sings just to hear herself sing. All she cares about is being up front and in the spotlight and if she has to say something stupid to do it, she will. Yes, everyone has the right to have their own opinion but to go to another country and shoot your mouth off about the representative of our country is just plain wrong. To sit there and say that you are ashamed of the President, who is a representative of the people of the United States, is the same thing as saying you are ashamed of your country and the people fighting for your rights. She may think she is right to do that, but she isn't. As for you and your so called truth, well, truth is open for interpretation and a patriot has a simple definition. That definition is someone who loves, supports and defends his or her country and it's interests. And, loyalty to ones nation. Truth's definition is the true or actual state of a matter. Of course, we all know what is said about truth. There is your side and my side, but the truth lies somewhere in the middle. So, you are entitled to your opinion but don't go around as if you are the only one who is right. A lot of people on this board feel that she has handled all of this in such a poor manner and she hasn't exactly been supportive of our president. Yes, there is new intel that says those weapons may not have existed after all but I personally wouldn't want to be the one to have to decide that action. President Bush acted on the intel he had at the time, which led him and a whole lot of other people to think that we might not be safe unless we act as soon as possible. I mean, think about it. On one hand you have intel saying WMD's are present, on the other hand, you have people saying let's check into it. Then, deadlines were given to Hussein to allow U.N. inspectors in to check it out, and in return we the inspectors were turned into hostages. Then, we send up planes to gather intel as to whether or not they are moving them. Those planes get shot at. Ok, now it's time to pull out all the stops. Either you let us in, or we will be forced to take action. We had to take action. I would rather take action than sit around and wait to see if those WMD's were headed for us. President Bush had to do what he and several others thought best. He couldn't risk just sitting around waiting to see if we got nuked or not. There were plenty of opportunities to stop this war before it got started, it's not George W's fault Hussein wouldn't play nice. If the Dixie Chicks want to sit back and bad mouth a guy because he was protecting our nation, then they are the ones taking advantage of the situation. For the DC to walk around saying they are ashamed he is from Texas just because he stepped up and said "you aren't gonna mess with us and get away with it" is totally stupid. |

| Michael | no prob tarzan's lady | 7/11/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | Dixie Chicken,well said. | 7/11/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | michael, thanx. | 7/11/2003 |
| fan | What is my supposed "preaching to the choir"? Tami, don't speak unless spoken to. Thanks. | 7/11/2003 |
| Tami G. | Okay Fan...So when you preach to the choir it is okay but when someone else does you try and bring the discussion back to the proper topic. And no one wants to see what you would show and tell... |
7/11/2003 |
| fan | Luxembourg---darn I was worried about that one....Oh and teacher, is it show and tell time yet? Get off your high horse and realize the topic of this discussion has nothing to do with losing your freedom of speech in another country. It is simply about the actions of these two artists. Good day. |
7/11/2003 |
| Elisha | Bark87, just because someone in another country might think that you are ignorant or stupid for voicing an opinion, that certainly does not mean that you LOSE your freedom of speech. No matter how ignorant or stupid I might think what someone else says is, they still have the FREEDOM to say it. As for your contribution to the matter, fan, you are going into a completely different topic. Certainly, if I went to Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, or North Korea and said something against the government, I would probably be imprisoned. However, I am confident that I could go to Canada, Japan, the United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Germany, Spain, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, and quite a few other countries and voice the same opinions and not suffer any negative repercussions (not rePROcussions). Our Constitution does not limit my freedom of expression to the boundaries of the US, as Bark87 implied. Don't blur the argument by bringing in something that's unrelated to the discussion. Bark87 said that freedom of speech, namely that of Natalie Maines, ends when we leave the country. The fact is that she was free to voice her opinion, no matter how much any of us disagree with it. | 7/11/2003 |
| fan | The Constitution of the United States of America, Elisha. Not the Constitution of the World. YES we do lose our freedom of speech in other countries. Sure we may say anything, but laws are different around the world Elisha. Different reprocussions may arise from doing so. For example you are in Iraq and you say "I hate Saddam". Your lible to get shot! So this just goes to show you cant always say what you want and expect everything to be ok. I agree with Bark. | 7/11/2003 |
| Bark87 | Elisha the reason why i said what i said is because its true. Now Now if you go to another country and say what ever you want to say and offend people and say its your right. They will think your ignorant!! And stupid. So I stand with with my old saying. Your freedom of speech ends when you leave the country. I would like to hear from you. Please. | 7/11/2003 |
| Elisha | I didn't care for Natalie Maines comments but I care even less for Bark87's statement that, and I quote, "Oh yes, when you are in another country your freedom of speach (sic) ends there." That disturbs me far more than what Natalie Maines said. The idea that we as Americans lose our right to free speech or to state our disagreement with the policies of our leaders when we travel abroad is ignorant and not at all consistent with what's set forth in The Constitution. | 7/11/2003 |
| jessica | toby keith rocks man!! he sings the awesomest music | 7/11/2003 |
| fun fan | YeeHaww, DC vs.TK maybe they should do a charity fundraiser and battle it out on live tv. | 7/11/2003 |
| Tami G. | Okay I had to laugh when I red all the posts for this seamingly simple little poll. Big deal she doesn't like whats going on no one really likes it but it is what the Pres. needed to do. Are we going to stone everyone who doesn't agree with us? Also an artists personal beliefs isn't why I listen to music, it's for the Music. I like them both and would in a heartbeat listen to either ones songs. |
7/11/2003 |
| Dixie Chicken | If the question is whose music I like more? Dixie Chicks. If the question is who do I favor in their debate? Neither, they are both behaving like children. If the question is am I proud to be an American? Yes If the question is do I always agree with the President and/or the administration? No, but if anyone said yes to this question they would be lying. You can please some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time. If the question is do I support our troops and respect the President? Yes, our troops fight for us. Our President has a full plate and many hard decisions to make. |
7/11/2003 |
| Patriot Goddess | Anonymous One, I don't even know you why wouldn't I like you. Okay as far your debate about intelligence spelling isn't the end all be all. As a matter of fact I know I don't spell well but as an ADULT as you called yourself I don't pick at petty childish things to determine if someone is a PUD. Grow up. Susan please do not question my patriotism. I believe in my country, I choose this country and I'm proud to be an American. Our soldiers I have the utmost respect for because they are willing to risk their lives for our freedom and our homeland. By the way I did stop and think about how it would feel if my family died at the hand of terrorist because MINE DID! So next time you think you are so high and mighty because you married a man in the military, realize you are no better than me Why you might ask? Because not only am I but my husband, brother and 3 brother in laws are in the military. I understand what a great nation we have and the fact that our military fights for it everyday. GI might in our PC world stand for Government individual but it's origination in WWII stood for Government issue or General issue. I never stated that I didn't support our troops or President. The DC were out of line in their behavior, it was childish and unprofessional but so was TK these are what makes us as a nation look bad. United we stand Divided we Fall... Never forget the ones who walked before us as they died for our freedoms. |
7/10/2003 |
| Michael | Oh, tarzan lady, why dont you swing back to that tree that you swung from | 7/10/2003 |
| Michael | Every body can think its all right for them to steal a horse but the dixie chicks cant call the president sorry. Whats wrong with this picture? | 7/10/2003 |
| fan | i saw mcgraw and kenny in concert, it was a great show...they need to steal more horses! | 7/10/2003 |
| Michael | this crap is all stupid, "oh my god the chicks need to be banned!" everybody get a life. toby keith is not god!!! Even though he tries to be | 7/10/2003 |
| BUCKBLASTER | Yeah, true the chicks have freedom of speech. But the liberal garbage that Maines spewed at an OVERSEAS CONCERT to an English crowd that was largely against the war, was nothing more than a piss-poor attempt at getting some applause. Michael - yeah, that was cool when Tim and Kenny stole the horses. I bet if they had another horse in the mix, the cops would have thought they were riding the Dixie Chicks through town! |
7/10/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | to all the people who think that they should talk about different singers........ this board is about toby and the chicks go to the tim and kenny site if u want to talk about them. | 7/10/2003 |
| fan | FACT DOES NOT EQUAL OPINION----PATSYKLINE | 7/10/2003 |
| Bark87 | PatsyKline your a moron too so shut up. Bush did us a favor by eliminating a threat not only to his peaple but to everyone as well. You doosh bag! | 7/10/2003 |
| PatsyKline | Natalie stated a fact. No one remembers that. Toby Kieth DOES make America look bad. I too, am an 'Angry American' Toby, but a true patriot right now should also be angry at those in Wash.,DC who are the biggest threat to the America you and I BOTH love. |
7/10/2003 |
| Bark87 | ok what happen about that? | 7/10/2003 |
| MIchael | this needs to be about different singers, the dixie chicks and toby keith are boring, lets talk about how tim mcgraw and kenny chesney stole that horse | 7/10/2003 |
| D.K. | Toby rules and the dixie girls drool!! | 7/9/2003 |
| Rosie | TIM MCGRAW IS THE MAN! | 7/9/2003 |
| tk4ever | Toby is totally awesome! Does anyone know where I can find shirtless pics of him? I really would appreciate the info!!! | 7/9/2003 |
| JANA DEE WEBB | TOBY KEITH IS AWESOME | 7/9/2003 |
| fan | yea well we probably would have lost over 5000 people from a terrorist attack from that damn country. If we can crumble that regime then maybe this stuff wont happen. It's not all about finding WMD, as you can see Al Qeuda used OUR planes, but had financial and leadership help from a powerful leader(bin laden). If we can try to take these people out of power, maybe this will stop. We liberated a country whose leader killed his own and attacked others for years. Oh great,look what I probably started... a debate on whether the war was valid....!!!! AH!!!! |
7/9/2003 |
| The Truth | I just read the Susan/Michael chat. I would not have said what Natalie Maines said, but it was her right as an American to voice her disagreement with the President. That's her right, anytime, anywhere. It's also the right of the consumer not to buy her music. However, as we are learning more about the situation in Iraq (no weapons of mass destruction, faulty information being provided about the weapons by certain administration officials, etc.), it seems like more of us should have been questioning the motives for this war, especially when you consider that we have lost over 200 brave soldiers and will continue to lose more in the name of nation-building. | 7/9/2003 |
| The Truth | Susan, responding to a point you made a few days ago about "Tie a Yellow Ribbon" being about a guy getting out of a POW camp. That's not what the song is about. It is in fact about a guy getting out of prison. Here's the account from www.superseventies.com, also available from other places on the www: "The song was based on an actual incident that occurred aboard a southern bus bound for Miami. One of the passengers explained to the driver that he was just out of prison, having served three years for passing bad checks. In a letter to his wife, he had written that she didn't have to wait for him; but, if she was still interested, she could let him know by tying a yellow ribbon around the only oak tree in the city square. As the bus rolled down U.S. 17, nearing the man's hometown of White Oak, Georgia, the driver was asked to slow down so that all could see whether the ribbon was in place. To the man's tearful relief, it was. The driver pulled over and phoned the story in to the wire services, which spread it all over the country. Songwriters Irwin Levine and L. Russell Brown read it in the newspaper, then put together their million-selling ballad." |
7/9/2003 |
| Susan | Wow, this board is slow now? I wonder why? Bebo, I completely agree with you and I will not go into another long "comment" on it. Just to say I agree. So people, there has to be something going on? Unless the point has been made, which is a possibility. :) I still need a good debate every once in a while.... |
7/9/2003 |
| Michael | Come on folks we need some more comments!!! | 7/9/2003 |
| Bebo | My problem with the Dixie Chicks is they can sing about getting back at an abusive husband by killing him and dumping the body in a ravine but if someone comes onto American soil and kills thousands of our people we arent suppose to do anything, we aren't even suppose to be angry. What I mean by this is when Natalie Maines said Toby Keith's song (Boot in their Azz) was Tacky. My opinion is that she attacked him first by saying that. Not only did she attack him but she attacked our nation when the wounds were still fresh. Most of us were still very angry about the attack on the towers when she is putting one of our own down for singing a song he wrote in memory of his dad and about fighting back when attacked. I will forever change the radio or TV when they come on. My opinion is that she is about equal to my feelings of Jane Fonda. | 7/8/2003 |
| Susan | Goodnight Michael, nice talking to you too. | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | Thanks susan, it was nice talking to u, i see where u come from and understand what ur trying to say, Goodnight | 7/8/2003 |
| Susan | Ok, so you have some idea of where we are coming from. That's good. As for the band members, that's the price you pay when you let someone in your band say those things. The band isn't exactly unfamiliar with problems from others in the band. They can do something about it if they don't want to suffer because of her mouth. I mean, if you allow someone to speak out like that, and don't say that she isn't speaking for all of them, or something to that effect, if you you can understand what I am saying, then you have to deal with the consequences. Every action has a consequence. Every time you allow someone to speak out like that, you take the risk of having to suffer the same set of consequences they do unless you do something about it. I mean, they can certainly distance themselves from the problem if they don't like the response to the situation they get. Does that make any sense? Right now I am just trying to state my opinion on the matter and of course there will people who will disagree but what can I say? It's not like the others don't have voices of their own. To that end, I need to end this for tonight. Everyone is free to have their own opinions, I just ask that you think about it, and be respectful. You don't have to agree with me, but don't make it out to be that my family is "only following orders" as has been said. If we didn't believe in the administration of our country, we wouldn't be risking our families for it. As the Bible says, "let he who is without sin, cast the first stone". Just remember all those who are fighting to protect us, and be supportive. Don't patronize or minimalize the situation. Think of how you would feel if we hadn't acted when we did and then the weapons that may or may not exist were turned on us? That thought scare the crap out of me. I would rather act against the possible danger than sit by and do nothing and then be hit by the weapons no one could prove weren't there. Intel may now say that there was a possible mistake, but I for one, am glad we didn't take that chance. | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | the other band members careers are in the ruins now, so i dont think they should be blamed also, and there music banned | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | Well i guess when she said it i was upset a little too, but i took it as her saying that shes mad he put the troops lives in danger. And i also think its not fair for the other band members who didnt have any part. So i guess thats really why im taking up for them | 7/8/2003 |
| Susan | I saw the same special. I think the thing that upset the people the most is that she said she was ashamed of the President. Like I said, a lot of us think that is just a way of saying she is ashamed of all the people out there fighting too. And even more disturbing was how she came out and said she didn't remember what she said, and also said that it stood for "Freedom, Understanding, Truth, and Knowledge" when it was easily understood to be a dig at TK. Ok, the poster was in bad taste too, but it was kind of funny. I mean, here she said she was ashamed of our National Leader, and he put up a poster. Which is worse? Poster? Statement and then shirt? I go with the statement and then shirt. Toby is out there trying to show his respect for the troops, she is out there saying she is ashamed. I go for supporting the troops, not bad mouthing our president on foreign soil. You see the point we are all trying to make? It's what she said, and how she said it. Not the fact that she voiced her opinion. I don't think anyone is saying she doesn't have that right, she has the right to her own opinion. But as an icon for America, she shouldn't have said it the way she did. You gotta support your country, you gotta support our leaders, not just throw them to the wolves because you disagree with it. The man is doing his best to protect the rights and freedoms of a hell of a lot of people, don't bad mouth him for that. And for petesake, don't go around disrespecting the people out there shedding blood to protect you. That's all anyone here that is against her is trying to say. | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | so after i stated my opinion, thats when fan started, so i figured i would start back | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | Well the only reason I came on this board is because the other day i was watching a dixie chicks vs toby keith special on cmt. I heard before what she did and everything, and i knew it was wrong of her, but when i was watching the cmt special it was showing step by step what natalie did to toby with the shirt, and everything, then it showed how toby keith put up a poster of natalie and saddamn hussein hugging, so i was thinking to my self, it was bad what she did and all but its not fair that everyone is banning her music for what she did, and everyone just laughed with toby about the poster. | 7/8/2003 |
| Susan | Michael, I see that Fan attacked you.... that too was not right. You did and do have the right to your opinions as does everyone. Fan sometimes gets carried away with the comments but just remember to respect other people. No, I am not in charge of this board and I don't think I am. I just hate it when people get into the "childish" parts of this issue. We are all entitled to our opinions, I obviously have my opinion. I just get really heated up about this because I have family out there fighting for these people and they say that they are "just following orders" and that the President was wrong for committing us to the fight. Many people out there have family fighting. Yes, new intel suggests that the weapons aren't there, but at the time, President Bush did what he thought was best and for Natalie to say she is ashamed he is from Texas is really a way of saying she is ashamed of all the men and women out there fighting. At least that is my opinion. It is just really sad that she had to handle it the way she did, and to set the record straight, Toby Keith couldn't honor his father as a military hero a long time ago in this way, because he didn't die until last year. I feel that even though you may not agree with the President, he is doing all that he can to make sure we are safe and the intel at the time said that we were in danger so he had to send out the troops. It just isn't right that he isn't supported by everyone when it is everyone he is trying to protect. | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | lol ok, im sorry that i offended u in anyway, i was just trying to get back at fan | 7/8/2003 |
| Susan | Michael, thank goodness. I really wouldn't want to be arguing with my nephew on this board. Not that I am attacking you or anything, it's just that he is my favorite nephew and you startled me, see I got him into country music and I really was praying you weren't him. I wouldn't want to hurt him for all the money in the world. | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | Well susan, im from Tallahassee Florida | 7/8/2003 |
| Susan | Michael, where are you from please? I have a 16 year old nephew named Michael and I certainly hope you aren't him. And just to make a small correction, it's lashes out and unfortunately, I taught that to my nephew... | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | susan im 16, when i first started on this board, i stated my opinion and fan was the first one to attack me, so i fought back, u might think i dont have respect but i do, but i was taught if someones leashes out at u, leash back, that was the only thing im trying to prove | 7/8/2003 |
| Susan | Michael, ok fine, you are younger than me, you must not have been taught to respect other people. I certainly hope someone teaches you respect for others. You know, the golden rule and all. | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | well susan, i see ur point, but im really younger than u. do u thing someone over 30 would have comments like me | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | and another thing susan, im younger than u so dont give me that bull | 7/8/2003 |
| Susan | Brandon, You are RIGHT on the money. In case you didn't notice, I have personal knowledge. YOU must know her family too. Michael, age doesn't really matter when it comes to opinion. Tact is what matters. Tact and respect. Don't go picking a fight with someone just because you don't think they are OLD enough. Last time I checked, knowledge isn't based on age, neither is respect. YOU may be older but I don't think you are wiser. If your wondering, I'm in my 30's. Care to read any of my comments and say that I am ignorant? Fan, don't stoop to the level that Michael has. Apparently, Michael doesn't know too much for an older person if he doesn't know that respect is ageless and so is knowledge and intelligence which don't always go hand in hand. As for your opinions about the Dixie Chix, well you and I obviously care enough and feel the same way about how they treated the whole issue. We both agree that everyone has their own right to speak their own minds but some just say it better than others. Keep up the good work. Angela, thanks for taking the time to read my postings and thanks for the awesome, it is really appreciated. |
7/8/2003 |
| fan | alright, well people bring on any new opinions! | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | well i guess i will have to argue with u later, bye, and go chicks | 7/8/2003 |
| fan | ahh..yea arguing is quite fun..and yea i am currently scouring the net for a job, so i can stop wasting my time here! | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | lol ur alright, i like to argue with u, you make it fun. I thought u came from university of florida or something, u remind me of my cousin u graduated there | 7/8/2003 |
| fan | just a small kinda unknown one from Ohio. Bowling Green State University | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | what university | 7/8/2003 |
| fan | no teacher here..graduate yes | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | did u graduate from college or something? Or u talk like ur a teacher or something | 7/8/2003 |
| fan | No I said, your words were one of a 3rd grader. | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | well u said i acted like a 3 year old | 7/8/2003 |
| fan | I mentioned your comments were childish. | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | well u always said i was childish i was gonna let u make a run for the money | 7/8/2003 |
| fan | why would that matter? Your opinions are what count, I don't care about your age. | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | lol if u only knew how old i was u wouldnt waste ur time on me | 7/8/2003 |
| fan | what does this matter? | 7/8/2003 |
| Michael | fan how old are u | 7/8/2003 |
| fan | nevermind Michael. you just don't understand | 7/7/2003 |
| Michael | fan, how did I dodge the issue, I still think the dixie chicks are better. Thank You | 7/7/2003 |
| fan | Michael, It's nice how you dodge the issue when people prove you wrong. Hope you are feeling well. Goodnight. |
7/7/2003 |
| Brandon | I think Natalie is basically jealous because Toby Keith is a gifted songwriter who worked hard to get to the top, when Natalie had to join an already-made group to get attention. Toby's songs are very catchy and his band is incredible, and I think Natalie is just taking a swipe at him because he's in the spotlight. |
7/7/2003 |
| Michael | Thanks Anonymous One, your the only one that can pretty much see it like I do. Im sorry u feel that way about the chicks, but its America, and ur freedom, but I think they should be forgiven, I understand they shouldnt have done what they did, but everyone should have a second chance. Maybe in the future they will be forgiven. | 7/7/2003 |
| Michael | Thanks fan for the nice compliment. I appreciated it very much. As for you, if you don't like what I say, you don't have to comment, or read it. I thought i made that very clear earlier??? Maybe its just me but you sound like a self centered little brat. But maybe its just me, naw, its everyone... So dont ever say anything with my name in it again... Appreciate it very much!!! Thanks | 7/7/2003 |
| fan | Well put Michael, that insult makes your ignorance even more noticeable. Get your 3rd grade garbage mouth out of here. Stop writing about things that you dream about. As for your thoughts: Toby's father died last year.Therefore he couldn't have written the song "a long time ago". Oh and funny, I thought all artists sang for other things than money. It is a career, obviously they are trying to make money. Seriously you came into this conversation way too late. Please go home |
7/7/2003 |
| Anonymous One | Michael, after writing my comment, I noticed your new comment, and I respect what you had to say- At least you took into account both sides of the account. However, what the Chicks did was something so disgusting that I will never have any respect for any beliefs or thoughts they may have | 7/7/2003 |
| Anonymous One | Michael, after writing my comment, I noticed your new comment, and I respect what you had to say- At least you took into account both sides of the account. However, what the Chicks did was something so disgusting that I will never have any respect for any beliefs or thoughts they may have | 7/7/2003 |
| Anonymous One | Michael- you are just a complete p.u.d. - Pathetic Unintelligent and Dim-witted. You have the right to be a dixie chicks fan and as hard as it is for me to comprehend that fact, it is your right. You however do not have a choice of being what you have become- which is a P.U.D. The Dixie Chicks have every right to say what they want to say about their beliefs- go ahead, this is America. However, there are two problems with the way they went about it. 1. -Never, ever go to a foreign country and use your fame your country has given you to undermine your government at a time of war. That is unprofessional, unethical and simply an unbelievable course of action to take. Screw them, forever....... 2. After doing the unthinkable, they cry like little babies about how their remarks should not affect their careers, endorsements and images. That is simply the most ridiculous thought I can imagine. Imagine yourself, walking around trash talking your boss, wait sorry, bad example- I can't imagine anyone hiring a P.U.D. like you. I'll try this again- Imagine an actor or actress who comes out an says something derogatory about Southerners, Northerners, Westerners, gays, minorities, the rich, or the poor and then turns around and cries- Oh why don't they come see me in my movie, that whole "Me, Me, Me approach." I don't give a damn if it's politics or if it's preferential biases, they are one in the same and if you want to take that path and vocalize your opinions as the Chicks have done, there is going to be prices to be paid- just check the poll. If you have problems understanding the poll, let me know and I will explain it in a simpler fashion. Patriot Goddess or Town Who^e- Please do not and I repeat do not ever write another message on this comments page. Your earlier message talked about others ignorance and you are the one who spelled ignorance like this- ignorent and ignorence. You should keep your opinions to yourself, because you are the one who is in fact IGNORANT. Also, in the same message, you actually spelled terrorist this way- TERREST?????? -Are you serious? HAHA- that is one of the saddest things I have ever read. I really don't like to do this, but well, you’re a P.U.D. as well.... Just to prove my point, people's opinions carry repercussions, so after reading this you probably will not like me, but well, I'm an adult and can deal with it, whereas the Whiner Girls......... |

| fan | Michael, get a clue, your not welcome here. | 7/7/2003 |
| Michael | angela why dont u mind ur own buisness???? :) | 7/7/2003 |
| Michael | Go chicks! | 7/7/2003 |
| Bark87 | Anne your pissing me off! You come this bored and write crap about how much you hate your life and nobody loves you! And making everyone feeling sorry for you. And we don't now why! Your not telling us. You are changing the subject here! We discussing how much the dixie chicks suck and they should all go to hell. You now what? I was on the same road as you. I looked down the barral of a rifel before. Then I relize that there was more to life. You will find it. You are going to have to except who you are. Everyone is here for a reason. Find it. Things will get better. In time anyway. | 7/7/2003 |
| angela | Michael.. why don't you find a new board! | 7/7/2003 |
| angela | Anne.... stay strong... God does not hate one thing about you... you shouldn't either.. you will make it through whatever you are going through. Your problem might be like a tall mountain and you might get a few bumps and bruises but.. wounds heal. You can make it.. just don't give up. As for Susan.... WOW! That was awesome what you said! |
7/6/2003 |
| ann coulter | what's the point? | 7/6/2003 |
| Susan | Truth, Actually, it is about a guy getting out of a prison, which if you check into the writer you will find, is not about a prison such as jail, it is about a guy getting out of a p.o.w. camp. Perhaps you may disagree with me on that song but that is your right as an American. The point is, there are songs out that that are patriotic and they were written long before the Iraqi movement. Anyway, while I do not want to get into a "pissing" contest over one song, you may want to look around and see all the yellow ribbons. You know, the ribbons are for remembering those who are not able to be with us at the moment. It is a song about remembering your loved ones and the loved ones around you. Do you think that someone just thought of putting yellow ribbons up for no reason? NO, they do it to remember,which was the point of my comment. I should also note, if you have read any of my comments at all, people just need to remember what is going on and if there are songs about remembering, well, then, in my book, they are patriotic. As long as they invoke the emotion of remembering your loved ones. People are caught up in the moment of now, but now is not what we need to think about. We need to think about the past and the future. Do not mistake me for saying that we should live in the past, but as a wise man once said, "Those who do not remember the past are destined to relive it." I personally do not want to relive a time when we did not have the freedoms we do now. I do not want to relive a time when we were afraid of even going outside for fear of an attack on our home land. Likewise, I do not care to think about the possibility of my children having to grow up fearing that at any moment, some jerk like Saddam Hussein or Osama Bin Laden can do something like the attack on the Twin Towers. I want my children to grow up feeling proud to be an American, in the land of the the free, knowing that there are a great deal of people who died to make sure they have the right to think for themselves and feel that they are not from an "unworthy" race or religion. My view is that if you are ashamed of someone who is doing everything he can to make sure you are safe and free then maybe your values are not all they should be. I have family members that have gone overseas to make sure that EVERYONE has the right to free thought and speech and even though I pray they come home safely, I am proud of the fact that they are serving their country and their President. You see, they are not just following orders, they are protecting your rights as well as mine. For someone to go to foreing soil and say they are ashamed of the President is saying they are ashamed of their country as far as I am concerned and that just isn't cool. If you aren't happy where you are, then leave. Don't go running your mouth off to people you shouldn't and then come home and expect people who have family trying to preserve your rights, and even shedding blood for you, to be happy about it. Like I said, I am only stating my opinion but from the looks of this board, there are more than enough people who feel the same way I do. You have your opinion, and it is your right to have it, and say it. Just say it in a way that is respectful, and appropriate. Too many men, women, and children have died to do it any other way. As for me, when I go to D.C. and see the war memorials and all the names of those who died for my freedom, well, I certainly am not ashamed or embarrassed and will NOT forget them. You are more than welcome to go to D.C. and see the memorials yourself and then you tell me if you are ashamed of your President for trying to make sure that it does not repeat itself. For that matter, turn on the television, or the radio, or even read the newspaper and then come back here and tell everyone who has someone over there fighting, that you are ashamed of them. Tell Jessica Linch you are ashamed of her. Tell the people in New York you are ashamed of them. Go to your local VFW and tell all those people you are ashamed of them. And then remember that if it wasn't for them, who can guarantee that you would be here and be free to sit at your computer and type your feelings on this board. I sure as hell am not about to say that. Maybe your interpretation of someof the songs I mentioned are different then mine, but at least I have the right to my own interpretation and to my own feelings. I have the right to have as many children as I want. I have the right to vote. I have the right to free speech. How many other countries deny their people those rights? How many people have to die for people to see that one person's way thinking is not the only way it is? How many people have to die in concentration camps, P.O.W. camps and on the battle field for people to see that freedom is the best way? Do you enjoy your freedom? I certainly enjoy mine. I enjoy watching my children playing in the streets without worrying that some psycho is going to send more psychos to make them suffer for thinking freely. I enjoy watching kids play without worry at playgrounds. I am really glad that my kids aren't forced into some army by the time they are 10. My kids have the freedom to choose their jobs, their spouses, their meals, and their religion. So do all American kids. Do you want someone to come along and take away that right? Not me! If I have to fight for my kids to have the right to be free... then so be it. I am not ashamed of that. Are you? | 7/6/2003 |
| Squidward | I hate the Dixie Chicks because they made fun of my clarinet playing. | 7/6/2003 |
| ann coulter | i hate everything about myself. | 7/6/2003 |
| The Truth | Susan: Tie a Yellow Ribbon was not written to be a patriotic song. It's about a guy who is getting out of prison. Listen to the lyrics. | 7/6/2003 |
| tk4ever | Does anybody know where I can find shirtless pics of Toby? | 7/6/2003 |
| Michael | ann, whats wrong? maybe u should seek medical attention. Maybe they can help u | 7/6/2003 |
| ann coulter | i am so lonely. no one likes me. | 7/6/2003 |
| Michael | Out of all the comments that I have read, I believe that Patriot Goddess put it right. | 7/6/2003 |
| Patriot Goddess | Not that I agree the t-shirt was in good tast on behalf of Dixie Chicks singer, but it was in much poorer tast that Toby Keith chose to retaliate in the same childish way. His song has heart and for that it is a great song. In terms of it's information and truth it is in "fact" ignorent. Many people have different opinions that is what makes our country great the ability to be an individual. Does Toby Kieth really want to be known as the guy pissing on the Dixie Chicks on a bumber sticker, if so he needs to grow up. Personally I have more faith in him than that. To both of them, sing on believe in what you beleive but be adults. Sorry one last note: as I read through the posts I had to ask myself are we adults who can debate in a probper forum or children who can only say swear because we don't know how to get our point across with intellegence? Just food for thought. It is still our country weather we like DC or TK or Both and remember United we stand Divided we Fall... Our most valid position of strength and nobility is the one where we know when to stop. Just because we have the power doesnt' mean we should use it all that is what a weak country or a terrest would do. Hopefully our president is strong enough and knows we are powerful enough to be Powerful and Noble in the face of terror. |
7/6/2003 |
| Michael | angela find a new board please!!!! | 7/5/2003 |
| Disabled Vet. | Dixie Chicks, pitiful, just plain pitiful. Im sorry they have lost touch with everyday America. You can't listen when your talking.... | 7/5/2003 |
| angela | Man a lot has gone on on this board! Ann~ Stick in there, people love you! Fan~ You speak the truth, we think a lot a like... but I guess TK fans think alike. Way to show Andrea the other songs, I bet ya she is speechless! Micheal~ Shut up!!! Please! J.R.~ Good one! |
7/5/2003 |
| Michael | lol allan jackson... good one | 7/5/2003 |
| Alan Jackson | If you liked my "Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning" you will love my "Where Were You When They Built the Ladder to Heaven" that was featured on SOUTH PARK in 2002. I donated all of the proceeds from the song to, uh, myself. | 7/5/2003 |
| Brian Radcliff | Natalie should sing, not talk! | 7/5/2003 |
| Bark87 | Fan you forgot Alan Jackson "where were you when the world stop turning" a song totaly about 9/11. And there was another song called "have you forgotten". So take that you bitch Andrea!! |
7/5/2003 |
| J.R. | Michael- you are a tree-hugging wussy boy who needs a boot shoved up your vagina. Buy a vowel, get a clue and don't bother me anymore. Your entity is not worth your existence. Go to France and have a shot of reality. | 7/5/2003 |
| Michael | fan, you need to go back home and get the news paper off your mama's table, and look under the classifieds and get a job, instead of staying on this board and judging other peoples comments. Just because your obsessed with toby keith doesnt mean you have to get an attitude towards people who take up for the dixie chicks. | 7/4/2003 |
| fan | Michael, Are president?........go back to school before you post here again. Obviously you are not intelligent enough to post here. | 7/4/2003 |
| Susan | Ann, as I look further through the board I see that your question of late is not meant for the discussion. As for a reason to go on, there are more than one reason. There is the fact that you were put here for a reason. It may not seem like it now, but if you weren't meant to be, then you wouldn't be. Someone must have cared enough about you to bring you into the world. And, even though I do not know you, I believe there is no problem that cannot be handled so if you need someone to talk to, then please do so here. Not everyone may answer you but I do know that there are people who care about you and if you are having personal problems in your life, someone can help. I am certainly willing to hear whatever you want to put in print. Maybe together we can talk things out and see how things can be changed or improved or bettered for you. Obviously, something is really upsetting you and you need to talk about it with someone, if you feel that this is not the appropriate place to talk it out then maybe you will consider seeking the advice of a friend, (or possibly you feel that you might not have a close enough friend, which I hope is NOT the case) or I am sure someone in your community can help. Please do not take the steps that it seems the tone of your comments are leading to. | 7/4/2003 |
| Susan | Ann, I am not sure your question is easily understood. Do you mean a reason to keep going with this discussion? Or what? AS for a reason to continue this discussion, that would be a personal choice. As for anything else, well, there are a lot of reasons I can think of. Open ended statements like yours can leave room for many interpretations and I certainly hope you mean a reason to continue the discussion. | 7/4/2003 |
| Michael | Toby u need a boot up ur ass F.U.T.K!!!! Go chicks | 7/4/2003 |
| Susan | Andrea, if you feel that Toby Keith took advantage of the situation you are definitely wrong. Toby was writing to honor his father for his bravery and honoring the other soldiers for their bravery. As for how many patriotic songs, well the best songs I can think of are Lee Greenwoods, "God Bless the USA" and "Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree" as well as the ever popular National Anthem and "Stuck in Sigon" and if you like for me to continue, I would have to not just simply state them here as there are too many to count. If you truly think that going into another country and saying that you are ashamed of your President is patriotic well then perhaps you should look up the definition of patriotic. Or better yet, join the military. Then we will see who is more patriotic. Furthermore, you might consider checking into Toby Keith's background and then while you are at it, check into Natalie's. You see, I grew up in the same town she did, and I even know her family. For her to say that she is ashamed of President Bush is completely against anything I have ever heard her family say. If anyone is taking advantage of the situation it is her. | 7/4/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | george u are totally right. tk all the way. | 7/3/2003 |
| george | dixie chicks are a disgrace to this country. If they don't appreciate it there are other places that they can live | 7/3/2003 |
| ann coulter | i'm miserable. can someone please give me a reason to keep going? | 7/3/2003 |
| tk4ever | Angela where did you see Toby's chest? I would do anything for a shirtless picture of him!!! | 7/3/2003 |
| fan | why don't you move on? you sure decided to pop your head in and say a few words. | 7/3/2003 |
| Justin | Why don't you people move on and find something really important to talk about. | 7/3/2003 |
| fan | Oh here we go Andrea,TRUE it does not make them less talented, but they pissed off some of their loyal fans and did not appologize. I'm not saying she has to apologize for saying what she said, but apologize to her fans or maybe explain more of what she meant. But I mentioned this point earlier, example: You have been watching your favorite TV show for years and recently an episode contained issues or actions that offended you. You may decide that you will no longer watch this show and talk bad about it, right??? They are still talented actors, but they made a comment or action that didn't appeal to you. Just an example showing how actions/words can change an opinion of an individual, of which it has done here with the chicks. Now, back to the taking advantage garbage.....He wrote the song to honor his father, and yes he included the recent war. I never knew there was something wrong with singing a song about a recent event in history..Oh and to answer your question about how many "Pro-America songs have been written pre 9/11......Here is a list of 8 ALBUMS devoted to "Pro-America"..so whats that about 80-90 songs? Oh and I'm sure there ate plenty more albums out htere as well sweetheart. Here it is:: Our America: 15 Patriotic Songs by Our Children ~ Young American All Stars Sing America ~ Various Artists Patriotic Music of America ~ The American Military Band American Patriot ~ Lee Greenwood Sousa: Marches Forever ~ John Philip Sousa (Composer) This Land Is Your Land - Songs Of Freedom ~ Various Artists United We Stand: Songs for America [Oglio] ~ Various Artists God Bless the U.S.A. ~ Lee Greenwood want me to find more for you? Or does this prove your point wrong enough? The entertainemnt industry is such a powerful part of today's pop culture and many people rely on it to get away from sadness,boredom,depression. With these "Pro-America" songs, it is nice to hear people stand up and fight for their country and defend her honor. Some poeple think we should ignore it and it will go away, well it wont. The inspiration from Toby's song touched many people. If you have seen his video when he is with the troops you would understand. They have been fighting real hard and the faces on these soldiers was undescribable as to the joy and inspiration they got from hearing such a song in the gruesome reality of WAR. They knew what they were fighting for and this gave them hope and a break from fighting a harsh war. So in that,thanks for reading. |
7/3/2003 |
| angela | Andrea.... the reason why a lot of people don't listen to their music anymore is mainly because they weren't adults about it... they shouldn't have said what they said in time and place of where they did it. It just wasn't right. We don't care if you listen to the Dixie Chicks. I don't think it is right that people say Toby is using the war to better his career. | 7/3/2003 |
| Andrea | The Dixie Chicks are as talented as any band can get - just because they happen to have opinions that differ from your average war monger doesn't make them terrible people or any less talented. At least some people aren't afraid that their opinion will affect their career. Toby Keith is just trying to take advantage of all the war-hype anyway. How many pro-America songs have you heard before Sept. 11th? Not that many. He can go back to singing his new age "country" and I for one will stick to The Chicks. | 7/3/2003 |
| angela | Once again, I agree with fan. As I was reading what this Max wrote, I was recalling that Natalie never regretted what she said. Jimbo... not all Americans are just white.. they are all kinds of people.. they live in America now, they have the same freedom as we all do. Sorry tk4ever.. I can't help ya out there. Sorry you feel that way ann.. what's wrong? I agree Dusty |
7/3/2003 |
| Dusty | Eveyone should be held accountable for what they say. If you can't take the heat shut up. If it is petty to choose who you will be a fan of by there actions and words call me petty. Without standards and morals you are nothing and it will show in the end. | 7/3/2003 |
| Richard | Go Toby!!!!!FUDC | 7/2/2003 |
| ann coulter | i hate myself. i'm a very unhappy person. | 7/2/2003 |
| fan | Listen here Max, First of all, natalie has not regretted what she said. She may have regretted how she said it, but not that she said it. So let me ask you this, if someone you like says or does something you disagree with, do you automatically forgive them? Even if they feel as though they did nothing wrong? If so, good for you. So your basically saying that if someone disagrees with one's actions/opinions, then they are ignorant...that is what your 2nd sentence says. Thanks Max. |
7/2/2003 |
| tk4ever | I wish someone would let me know how to find some shirtless pics of Toby! | 7/2/2003 |
| Jimbo | I think the Dixie Chick dessicrate the word Dixie. I am proud of my Southern haritage and I don't care who that upsets. If yall don't agree well stay away from here. It's time the real Americans took the country back from all the emigrants and minrities who take all of our jobs. | 7/2/2003 |
| Max | if anyone is a true dixie chicks fan, it shouldnt matter what one of them said. and those of you who aren't a fan anymore because of what natalie said, you are ignorant, everyone has said something they regret or want to take back, but you have probably been forgiven for it. so just get over your pettiness. | 7/2/2003 |
| angela | Way to go fan. That is exactly what I think. Toby Keith all the way! | 7/1/2003 |
| fan | Linda, what exaclty is your problem? Have you read any of my posts? I have no problems with other opinions. Just upset at the damn chicks for doing what they did and supporting Toby. People can say what they want, they just need to choose the right place to say it. They lost many fans and sales and had death threats from what they did. It just wasn't smart. Please pay attention next time Linda. Thanks. | 7/1/2003 |
| angela | I agree with brian. tkrever... you are funny. Linda, you are all wrong. I don't think fan is trying to say anything like that. I think it is actually amusing to hear what you and Curt have to say about why you think it was right for what Natalie did. | 7/1/2003 |
| tk4ever | OMG I always imagined Toby had a hairy chest. Does anyone know where I can find pictures of it??? | 7/1/2003 |
| Bark87 | curt you need to take off you scurt and get all of the sand out of your Virginia. Please you really need to. You sound like a pricken moron. | 7/1/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | i agree w u 2 brian. | 7/1/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | any time angela. tk all the way. | 7/1/2003 |
| Linda | Curt, don't bother with fan. He's an example of the unfortunate state of our country, the idea that "I'm wrapping myself in the flag, and if you disagree with my opinions, you're not patriotic." If you try to have an intelligent exchange with him, he will resort to name calling (like most of the others here) and vote for Toby Keith another 5000 or 6000 times. The anger, hatred, and intolerance on this board is more amusing than it is upsetting. Unlike Natalie Maines, these people are voicing their opinions in complete anonymity. | 7/1/2003 |
| brian | i think that all of you people who are not backing our country should go live in a country like cuba or russia, then lets hear you degrade this awesome country | 7/1/2003 |
| angela | Thanks Tarzan's lady! | 7/1/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | angela, totally agree w u. | 7/1/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | curt, i wasn't meaning u. i was meaning some of the other people that r on this site. sorry u thought i was talking 2 u. | 7/1/2003 |
| angela | I agree 100% with fan. Curt.. I can't believe you actually think Toby wrote that song just to make more money and make him look better! I can't believe you could go that low. But now I can. Toby wrote that song in memory of his father. He wrote that song to express his feelings on the war as well as many others feelings. He even called up Cledus T. because they are friends and said Hey, I wrote a song, what do you think? He wasn't even planning on releasing it as a single. Cledus said that he should. When he went over seas, all the soldiers told him that he should release it out. So, why don't you quit running down a patriotic American who is giving hop and motivation to our troops. Sometimes you have to fight for freedom, even if we are fighting for someone else's freedom. We are actually helping out others. Tell me Curt, when did helping others be abad thing? And that sarcasm, it really is quit annoying. |
7/1/2003 |
| fan | Curt, the CMA bestly represents the best in country music just as an election represents an official for a job. It is the audiences vote. Your sarcasm is over the edge and not funny. We will just call you Sarcurstic from now on. Toby didn't take advanatge of the situation, he just felt it was a good time to write a song when people were down and out and needed motivation of some sort. Do you believe Darryl Worley's song to be taking advantage as well? These people just want to relate a song to world experiences. It helps people gain a better sense of the situation and maybe take away some of the pain. Also there is no way of taking advantage of any situation through a song because nobody knows if the song will be a hit if it comes out.Well if the only way these barbarians can understand fredom is through us fighting, then we must. These people will not sit down and have tea with us and discuss peace. Also, we are not having a history lesson here scurt, we are simply talking anout the present war and artists beliefs towards that war. Almost all of your sentences in your post were sarcastic, why don't you state your point. All this garbage is annoying. Once again, a song cannot have a possession. An inatimate object cannot possess a mentality. Your miserable attempt at a opinionated metaphor makes you look more ignorant. oh and no, i don't have much hair on my chest. I am not the hairy type! I wonder if toby looks like a bear? Probably the reason nobody can find a pic w/his shirt off. later |
7/1/2003 |
| Curt | Also Fan, I said the song expresses the mentality of a professional wrestler, not that the song has mental issues. Do you know what the word mentality means? Toby and fan all the way! |
7/1/2003 |
| moose | how is DC's song Earl any different that TK's song? Talk about ignorant! Go Toby!! | 7/1/2003 |
| fan | ok scurt, stop your nonsense about the CMA entertainer of the year. Your post shows a complete lack of knowledge. How does his song show an understanding? In his video he is with the troops. I think he knows what's going on. How can an inatimate object have mental problems? I think you are the mental one here. Go to sleep scurt. If your ashamed get the hell out. Oh once again, freedom of speech, people can say what they like. Hypocrite. Julie are you ok? |
6/30/2003 |
| Curt | I do like country. I listen to it most of the time. But I don't listen to the stuff they play on the radio. It's watered down crap. Give me a Gillian Welch or a Steve Earle anyday over Toby Keith, becasue they are closer to true country music then any of those other radio clowns. | 6/30/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | people who dont like country should stay out of it. go toby . toby all the way. | 6/30/2003 |
| Curt | Wow, I just read some of the earlier postings. How shameful are people's prejudices against minority groups in this coutry. The amount of ignorance is appalling. I'm ashamed to be from the same country as some of you. | 6/30/2003 |
| Curt | The Dixie Chicks have won me over too. I was never fan either until the controversy started. Finally, someone in mainstream country who can think independently and doesn't just follow the narrow minded views of the country music industry! There is no other music industry in the world like country music in that regard. It's like a snotty country club who only allows members who think like they do. Cookie Cutter artists like Toby Keith are so boring. His song shows a complete lack of understanding of the complexity of issues involved in the world, which is far more dangerous then anything natalie maines said. The song has the mentality of a professinal wrestler. Wake up people. | 6/30/2003 |
| andy | good for you todd, do you and randy listen to it together? | 6/30/2003 |
| Todd | They've won me over. I was never a fan of their music or any country music until all this hubbub. I bought Home and I keep it in my car CD player. | 6/30/2003 |
| Karie | I used to be a die-hard Chicks fan, but obviously they are not mature enough to really apologize and let things go. I cannot support this. Such a shame as they are wonderful musicians. I appreciate them standing for what they believe, but pushing the envelope isn't necessary. It's not winning anyone over. | 6/30/2003 |
| joe | WE DONT KNOW WHERE TO FIND THOSE PICS!!! STOP ASKING!!! | 6/30/2003 |
| Kerry | I want some of them pictures of Toby without a shirt to. Does any body know if Toby has a harry chest are if its smoothe? | 6/30/2003 |
| tk4ever | Would someone PLEASE tell me where I can find shirtless pics of Toby?!?! | 6/30/2003 |
| TERRY | I AM VERY PROUD TO SAY THAT TOBY KEITH IS FROM OKLAHOMA. THANKS TOBY FOR STANDING UP FOR THE USA. P.S. F U D C |

| angela | Eww! I didn't know they did that? That is gross! Toby Keith all the way! | 6/28/2003 |
| SUZANNE | TOBY KEITH IS THE GREATEST SINGER BUT THE DIXIE CHICKS ARE TOO BUT THEY ARE THE MOST DISGUSTING OF THE PICTURE THAT DON'T HAVE ANY CLOTHES ON THAT IS DUM. | 6/28/2003 |
| SUZANNE | I LIKE TOBY KEITH SONGS BUT THE DIXIE CHICKS DID WRONG AND FOR MAKING A BIG DEAL OF TOBYS SONG IS NOT RIGHT. | 6/28/2003 |
| angela | Who used my name? That was really rude! Toby Keith all the way! | 6/27/2003 |
| angela | Toby Keith is a moron | 6/27/2003 |
| mike | Country music fans are the dumbest people on earth. You are all a bunch of redneck hicks. All other forms of music are so much more advanced. It's sad to see the path that Hank Williams Sr., Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings blazed have to be litter by someone as lame as Toby Keith. Give me a break. He's horrible. The country music industry is so narrow minded. The best country music is not heard on the radio. It's perform is small clubs around the country be real country artist like Buddy Miller, Billy Joe Sahver, and Steve Earle. Toby Keith? Man, talk about a buch of loser with really bad taste. "Yeah, let's kick ass..kiss my American ass!" Wow, are you people dumb. | 6/27/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | i agree go Toby. | 6/27/2003 |
| angela | I agree with Jessica! Toby Keith all the way! | 6/27/2003 |
| Jessica | Toby Keith, I'd say, is one of the best county singers in the world!! I'd perfer listening to him than any other country singer. TOBY ROCKS!!! | 6/27/2003 |
| Linda | Radio stations did have a right to tune them out, Angela. You are correct. However, when a broadcasting megacompany like ClearChannel bans them from their stations, that's not a choice. That's censorship. Leave the choice to the individual. | 6/27/2003 |
| angela | They had the right to speak out, the radio stations had a right to tune them out. Tough life. Toby Keith all the way! | 6/27/2003 |
| THE BOSS | A quote from Bruce Springsteen: "The Dixie Chicks have taken a big hit lately for exercising their basic right to express themselves. To me, they're terrific American artists expressing American values by using their American right to free speech. For them to be banished wholesale from radio stations, and even entire radio networks, for speaking out is un-American." |
6/27/2003 |
| ANGRY AMERICAN! | I thought I liked the dixie chicks, But it's like they say 1 bad apple ruins the whole bunch. Those of us who have someone at war understand how it really is. SHE DON'T HAVE A CLUE! | 6/27/2003 |
| angela | Thank you VietNam Vet! | 6/26/2003 |
| angela | Linda, I know that it is ok to voice your opinion, but she shouldn't have done it at that time. She is an adult, and she should know when to say things at the right time. And then to bash someone for being patriotic. It just doesn't seem right. But, hey she has a right to voice her opinion. But, alot of us don't like it. | 6/26/2003 |
| the Monkey | The Dixie Chicks suck big fat monkey nuts. | 6/26/2003 |
| tk4ever | I really need to find some shirtless pictures of Toby. | 6/26/2003 |
| VietNam Vet | As a VietNam Veteran Natalie Maynes is starting to remind me of Jane Fonda. The difference is she has pointed the big gun (her mouth) the wrong direction. Let's hope it does not take all three down as that would be unfortunate. Toby Keith on the other hand has supported The Troups (men and women) in a very positive way. He sticks to his guns. "Whiskey for my men and beer for my horses." | 6/26/2003 |
| Linda | Angela, what it tells people in other countries is that Americans are free to say what they think and believe what they think. It also says that we are free to disagree with our leaders and to be vocal about it. The idea that we shouldn't use that freedom at certain times is scary. | 6/26/2003 |
| angela | Cleve, the only problem I see with Natalie doing that is when it was on foriegn land. It was kind of a slap in our face when she done that. It made us look stupid. For us to send singers over there that are Americans and they turn around and trashed our President. What is that telling other people? These girls are people who others looked up too, and for them to do that. It just wasn't right. But yes, she does have a title to her opinion, but she shouldn't have used that right at that time. Toby Keith all the way! | 6/26/2003 |
| Cleve | I agree with most of what you say Donald. You are right that Toby and Natalie have rights to their opinions. I lost some very close friends on September 11 and I am still angry about it. I think the only punishment for Bin Laden that is suitable is to tie him up and allow everyone who lost someone on that day to spit on him, kick him, or do whatever they feel is appropriate. I see both sides of this issue. I don't think there was anything wrong with Toby recording "The Angry American" because as an artist he expressed himself. I also don't think there was anything wrong with Natalie saying what she thought. She never spoke out against our country and it's important that we remember that. If we start persecuting (or praising) people for their political or religious belief, that makes us no better than those lunatics in Iran or Saudi Arabia or in the Taliban who made it illegal for anyone to have their own beliefs. Freedom of expression is one of the basic rights we have as Americans. | 6/26/2003 |
| donald keathley | natalie needs to realize that toby has a right to an opinion just like she does. i think she is going to make life hard on the two other chicks if she keeps running her mouth.i think toby speaks for most americans. we dont all say it in the same way but basically all of us are mad about what has transpired in the past couple of years.to critisize your country on foreign soil is definitly not an act of patriotism and shows no sign of unity with your country. we had troops on the ground at the time and this was an obvious lack of respect for them. martie and emily need to do what they did before,fire your lead singer and go ahead with yor careers before natalie drags you down with her.if i remember correctly you did this once before so it shouldnt be too hard to do again. | 6/26/2003 |
| Janette Moore | Enjoyed Dixie Chicks music but lets face it their lead singer should stick to singing because she is no brain child. Her mouth has turned my family off to her music and channels turned when she is on. Toby on the other hand is #1. Fantastic singer/songwriter, outstanding role model and proud to be an American. | 6/26/2003 |
| Jack | I think the Dixie Chicks should stick to singing and shut there mouths on running down the USA | 6/26/2003 |
| Sara | Toby Keith is AWESOME!! He stands up for himself even when the Dixie Chicks act like idiots toward him. Go Toby Keith! | 6/25/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | we don't pay the dixie chicks to talk we pay them to sing. | 6/25/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | thanx angela | 6/25/2003 |
| tarzan's lady | Lisa u r so right. T.K. all the way. | 6/25/2003 |
| tk4ever | Does anybody know where I could find shirtless pictures of Toby? | 6/25/2003 |
| Dan | I think Natalie is a victim of wanting to sound like a liberal with out really knowing what she believes in. I beliebe T.K. is at least has a genuine passion for his belief. Natalie seems like she wants to be the trendy ideaology spokeswoman. Me.. I just want to know... WHY? | 6/25/2003 |
| angela | I agree with you Trazans lady. And for Stef, that is a good quote. Toby Keith is a good patriot that sings the truth! Toby Keith all the way! | 6/25/2003 |
| Tarzans lady | i cant believe that some people think that toby's song sucks. it is one of the best songs ive ever heard. | 6/25/2003 |
| Tom Hodgins | Toby Keith's music sounds better and knowing that his music comes from someone who respects his country makes him sound all the better to me. | 6/25/2003 |
| April | I'm a huge fan of Toby Keith, & if someone has a problem with that then they can kiss my american ass. I think everyone out there has forgotten what our boys are fighting for, they are fighting for our freedom, & freedom of speech is one of those freedoms, I'm not standing up for her but however she was just expressing that freedom. By the way I love that song Toby Keith called Courtesy of the red, white, & blue. |
6/25/2003 |
| Linda | Thanks for sharing TR's quote with us, Steff. How true. | 6/25/2003 |
| Steff | Theodore Roosevelt said it best: "To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." | 6/25/2003 |
| Julie | Thank you Matt and the rest of the military men and women that have served this country!!!! Cant show you enough appreciation for what you have done and the rest out there. | 6/25/2003 |
| tk4ever | I really wish I could find some shirtless pictures of Toby. | 6/25/2003 |
| angela | My dad served in desert storm in the air force. Thank you for everything you have done matt Evancheck. Toby Keith all the way! | 6/25/2003 |
| Me | Just so you know, we're ashamed that Natalie is from Texas | 6/25/2003 |
| Marlene Moses | I think Natalie was out of line, when she insulted Toby's verse "boot in your ass" Toby's song is about defending the United States. The Good bye Earl song done tastlessly about murdering an abusive spouse was never condemed because this is the US of A. If you don't like what you are hearing, tune it out. Courtosy of the Red white and blue was and is the way most American's feel. The entertainment industry is not the majority. They are a small minority of voices heard louder than the majority. That is ashame. I approve of the war in Iraq, I do not approve of us staying there. Iraqies to not want us there. Or maybe it is just the vocal minority rather than the thinking majority. God Bless all. I pray for Peace, But if we cannot acheive peace from prayer, we must fight for it. |
6/24/2003 |
| Kim | I would like to find shirtless pictures of Toby to. Is there a web sight that have them? | 6/24/2003 |
| fan | Linda why do you find it interersting? I have always been nice! | 6/24/2003 |
| Linda | I think Grace has a very good point. Toby Keith, the Dixie Chicks, and all other entertainers have one objective and it's money. Also, I've been following this board since the editorial was posted, and I think it's interesting that "fan" is telling someone to "put it nice." | 6/24/2003 |
| Julie | I believe Grace you are 100% true and I didnt even think of that until you have written that. GO GRACE!!!!!!!!!! | 6/24/2003 |
| Julie | These two country singers need to set an example to the World and get over themselves. They are role models think of the people watching them and what the examples they are setting. Get over it already. I liked both and their music. With all this between them I think less of them now as everyone else I know. Our World is going down hill and them being the eyes of people should be showing an good example |
6/24/2003 |
| fan | ok grace, we are all morons. Put it nicely next time and maybe we will listen. | 6/24/2003 |
| Grace | You people are so gullible that you don't even realize that this is a public relations thing going on between Toby Keith and Natalie Maines. The publicity that they are getting is something that no amount of money could buy. Toby Keith has galvanized his country fan base which is what he wanted to do, and the Dixie Chicks have found more of a crossover audience which is what they wanted to do. Do you think either Toby or the Chicks want to see this blow over? Hell no! | 6/24/2003 |
| fan | ah, I see... Go Toby! | 6/24/2003 |
| Bark87 | Because of cause and affect. By saying something stupid and making no sense I wanted to see what your reaction would be. Actually I din't mean you. I was aiming for Fan of Fan. Sorry for the mix up. Long Live Toby Keith!!!! | 6/24/2003 |
| Bark87 | Because of cause and affect. By saying something stupid and making no sense I wanted to see what your reaction would be. Actually I din't mean you. I was aiming for Fan of Fan. Sorry for the mix up. Long Live Toby Keith!!!! | 6/24/2003 |
| justin | the chicks started this crap by bashing tobys personal song which I find is a great song and now their going further into this and are making themsleves look like rich brats who dont know the real world. | 6/24/2003 |
| angela | Natalie is a true example of a dumb blonde! She makes us have a bad name! | 6/24/2003 |
| angela | Lets send boots to Natalie and let her know where she needs to put them! | 6/24/2003 |
| Bark87 | Fan and Brion are nothing more than than French fagets!!! | 6/24/2003 |
| bob | Dixie chicks are gayer than elton jon! | 6/24/2003 |
| GWB in 04 | natalie maines is a communist |
6/24/2003 |
| Beverly Becker | My shirt would say N.N.A.O.A.W. which would stand for " Natalie Needs An Oklahoma Ass-Whippin! Thank you | 6/23/2003 |
| Beverly | Why is it when people get a little famous they get the "big head"? The Dixie-chickens are so lucky to be where they are. I didnt even listen to them on the street corner in Ft.Worth. I am a proud American and a Proud Okie!I live in Norman Ok. about 4 miles from Toby. He has stayed in Okla., has a beautiful home and family here. He is a king here and can come and go as he pleases. I saw him at Outback Steakhouse a couple of weeks ago, and he is always himself. he does not put on the dog for anyone. He has more class and talent than all the chicks put together. God bless Toby Keith. | 6/23/2003 |
| fan | who names the child Ken? Where's Barbie at Ken? | 6/23/2003 |
| Ken | Who names their child Brion? | 6/23/2003 |
| Brion | one more thing if you make 26k and up your in the top 50% according to the IRS stats I gave and if you make 55k and up your in the top 25% so to tell me the rich are the ones benefiting from the tax cut is just plane stupid!!! The top 1% makes 293k and up and also pay roughly 35% of all income taxes. So fan of fan rich is now defined as the top 25% and if you make more than 50k a year your the one that is footing the bill for the rest of the country. You cant possible tell me that this tax cut is only going to effect 2% of our population because according to my numbers 25% or more will feel the effects. Give up this tax argument because you have no clue what the truth is and you will continue to be blind until you wake up and smell the roses because it is the working class who is truly supporting this country and we deserve a break! | 6/23/2003 |
| Brion | I wanted to comment on "fan of fan" Financial wizardy a week ago saying that the rich are recieving the tax cuts. Fan of fan your nothing more than a typical liberal who use numbers the wrong way to scare people into believing your garbage. I have some real statistics here for you to disprove your little 2% theory saying they are the only ones recieving the benefits. this info comes from the IRS and the numbers are from 2000. Top 5% - 56.47% of all income taxes; Top 10% - 67.33% of all income taxes; Top 25% - 84.01% of all income taxes. Top 50% - 96.09% of all income taxes. The bottom 50%? They pay a 3.91% of all income taxes. So your telling me that a tax cut only benefits the top 2% of americans? That is horse just like that usless dribble you spilled claiming Slick Willie was responsible for our ggod economy when in fact it was more of Regans doing and Clinton just left it alone. By the way his (Clinton) great economy was nothing more than deciet and lies holding form to true Clinton style for proof look at companies such as Enron and other establishments that cooked their books while Billy boy was getting head from interns. Clinton was the worse thing for this country and all of you who support him can go live in Iraq and be the peaceful people that you are but dont ever come back because us true country hard working americans dont want to support your lazy asses anymore! | 6/23/2003 |
| Chris | Toby is so cute and cuddly. I don't understand why anybody would say anything bad about him. I would also like to know if theres a place that there are pictures of him without a shirt on. | 6/23/2003 |
| terry | peggy, remember, only 1 out 3 of them are actually from Texas...these chicks need to grow up! Go Toby! | 6/23/2003 |
| Picayune | I live in Mississippi and I am ashamed that the Dixie Chicks use the word Dixie. I am proud of my heritage and I don't care if it affends anybody. Trent Lott was right when he said that we wouldn't be having all of these problems if Strom Thurman was elected president when he ran. Traiters like the Dixie Chicks would be punished for saying crap like that. | 6/23/2003 |
| Peggy | I'm ashamed the Dixie Chicks are from my home state of Texas!!!! | 6/23/2003 |
| tk4ever | does anyone know where i can find shirtless pics of Toby? | 6/23/2003 |
| Jesse | I hear y'all! I hope that when President Bush gets re-elected in 2004 he will do something about the problem with the immigrants and other minorities. We built this country and all they haven't taken away from us is country music and NASCAR. President Bush has some good minorities in his cabinet like Rice and Powell and they understand that the rest of them want a free ride. I am tired of carrying them on my back. | 6/23/2003 |
| toney | yes foster, good point! These minorities just waste space. Criminals is all they are. Affirmative action crap. Hire a minority over a more experienced white person. Sure I'll agree with equality, but come on, there must be some limits. The more experienced perosn should get hired whatever race the person is. Sure if they are a minority, ok. Oh and these colleges admitting minorites over more qualified people..complete crap! | 6/23/2003 |
| Foster | Country music is American music and all you pinko liberals should just shut up with your opinons becuase we don't care. I don't care what you think. That dixie chick didn't have no right to say what she did and she should be band from the radio and playing. Toby Kieth is a real American who beleves in American values. Its time we take this country back from all the minortys and send them all back to where they came from! It makes me sick all the minortys on welfare and taking jobs from real Americans and then suporting our enemy. Go home!!!!!!! | 6/23/2003 |
| jim | Remedial English? What? What the hell is your point? What does that radio station have to do with Toby Keith or The Dixie Chicks? There is no relevance there. You get a life and take rationale 101. | 6/23/2003 |
| LJ | This is getting to out of hand | 6/23/2003 |
| lindalou | How can she criticize when d.c. song talks of killing someone and hiding it from the cops? Natalie decided to characterize t.k. song as ignorant. It's not a feud as you call this matter. Toby Keith is mererly responding--- he MOST certainly does NOT need this ridiculous woman to be a Superstar and decent haman being yhat he is. | 6/23/2003 |
| Joe M. | Here in Gainesville, Florida we have a radio station whose call letters are WKTK. Are you yahoos going to call for a boycott of them because you think WKTK stands for "Whores Kiss Toby Keith"? Get a life! And go take a remedial English class!! | 6/22/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | jim, totally agree w u. | 6/22/2003 |
| jim | the only girl in the band from Texas is Natalie..she need to shut her piehole | 6/22/2003 |
| ben | Keith responded to Maines’ criticism during a Dec. 14, 2002, interview with CMT.com writer Craig Shelburne. During the conversation, Keith said, "I’m a songwriter. She’s not. She can say my song is ignorant, then it’s ignorant for her to say that because she’s not a songwriter." |
6/22/2003 |
| meagan | and for natalie to try to lie about what futk means that was not right she had the guts ( i have other words to use but ill make this short and sweet )to wear the shirt but not to say what it really meant that just shows how big of a person she really is !!!! | 6/22/2003 |
| meagan | i also think that natalie had every right to say what she did about bush but she shouldt say things about people that she couldnt do a better job of its not moraly right and just because toby spoke his mind about things dosent mean that she has the right of bad mouthing him and she is right that anybody can wright a song about kicking iraqs butt but i think it was just the fact that she didint think of it first | 6/22/2003 |
| meagan | i have always thought that toby was a better singer but i liked the dixie chicks but now after what natalie said i dont think i will ever think of them the same way. | 6/22/2003 |
| Tarzan's lady | valerie...... any body who agreed w clinton just sucked anyway.So why bring that up now? |
6/22/2003 |
| Tiffany | Toby Keith is the coolest!! Dixie Chicks are so dang stupid for saying what they did i will never listen to the again. | 6/22/2003 |
| Brenda Craig | Natalie & the Dixie Chicks need to just keep their mouths shut. I liked them before but now.. They need to just zip it.... |
6/22/2003 |
| fan | Saying they were ashamed of the Country's President in a Foreign country is quite disrespectful. For Clinton, ok explain more please. What, about him being a jackass and messing around with the intern? Messing around with an intern is in no way trying to help the nation and therefore he can be ridiculed all he wants. Bush is trying to help the nation be peaceful. That argument makes no sense whatsoever. The actions are totally different. | 6/22/2003 |
| mad mom | Natalie won't stop until her mouth has ruined this group | 6/22/2003 |
| Valerie | When have the Dixie Chicks ever shown disrespect toward their country? Never! They disagreed with Bush and said they were ashamed to be from the same state as him. That is NOT disrespect for the country. If disagreeing with the President is showing disrespect toward country, then many of you were guilty of the SAME THING while Clinton was President! | 6/22/2003 |
| Aaron A. | Anybody that doesn't like toby keith might as well stop listening to country music, because Toby IS Country Music. (Entertainer of the Year!!!!) | 6/21/2003 |
| kev | I can't stand those stupid bitches. | 6/21/2003 |
| Brent | I don't even won't to here the Dixie Chicks, I don't feel like being sick to today. | 6/21/2003 |
| Trent | Down with the Dixie Chicks. |
6/21/2003 |
| KD | It's time the American people stand for what we believe in and boycott these liberals and thugs whether it be music, videos or whatever. The real driving force in those industries is MONEY. If you dont buy it they wont come! | 6/21/2003 |
| Susan | Well actually, we( veterans) are better off benefit wise. But anyway, Natalie Maines should not go around attacking Toby Keith for his beliefs anymore than anyone else, most of the country thinks that this mess with the dixie chicks is competely out of hand, along with many artists who have gone on record as saying she has gotten out of control. I understand that some of Bush's things may be off target but trust me on the issue that G.I.'s and Veternas have more benefits. The medical system at the bases and at private hospitals has improved under Bush's control and believe me, I know. I have to use it quite often and I have saved a lot of money compared to the earlier 8 years. Not to mention that if Clinton had gone on cutting defense troops, we wouldn't even have had enough men available to go and take care of business when we needed to. In the case of 9/11, some reports have been suggested to state that Bin Laden and Hussein were working togehter on that attack and if you have watched the reports, Bush has said that he will continue to work on Bin Laden as well. The world needs to know that we will not tolerate people coming in to our country and attacking us. If people are upset because they believe our attacks were unfounded, what about all the attacks Bin Laden and Hussein have done? They have done far worse than we have, and I firmly support the President and Toby Keith. I still think it is tactless and ridiculous that Natalie Maines and the Dixie Chicks have decided to go as low as to wear an F.U.T.K. especially at the awards. That is just plain tacky and idiotic!! As I said, she is just as spoiled brat. | 6/20/2003 |
| Linda | I've watched this back and forth between Fan and Fan of Fan for the better part of a week now. I think they both have way too much time on their hands. However, if I ever wanted one on my side in a debate, it would be Fan of Fan. If I had agreed with Fan to begin with, I probably would not now. | 6/19/2003 |
| fan | ok fan of fan, you tool | 6/19/2003 |
| Mod | "fan" I must warn you to keep the discussion on the topic and refrain from personal attacks. | 6/19/2003 |
| fan | no I'd just rather not comment on your mindless dribble. Time for bed time fan of fan, the school bus will be there soon enough. | 6/19/2003 |
| fan of fan | fan, I can tell that my last post went completely over your head. You might feel like you "won" something, and if that has brightened your day, good. Enjoy your "prize". |
6/19/2003 |
| fan | fan of fan: Give your argument up, you lost. | 6/19/2003 |
| fan of fan | fan, what is it that you want me to "give up"? Is it my freedom to say what I think? If so, I am not surprised. Is it my beliefs? If so, don't count on it. For me to give up my beliefs is about as useless as expecting you to give up yours. That's one of the great things about being an American. We can exist together with different beliefs and opinions and not kill each other. I might disagree with you about political issues and music, but I would fight for your right to have your opinions. I think it's impressive that you felt strongly enough about this issue to vote for Toby Keith over 10000 times today. I salute your dedication to your cause. |
6/19/2003 |
| fan | fan of fan, give up why dont you?! | 6/19/2003 |
| fan of fan | Susan, the only people who "have more benefits under Bush" are the richest 2% of the population who are the prime beneficiaries of the most lopsided tax cut in history. At the same time, our economy has lost nearly 3,000,000 jobs. President Bush inherited one of the strongest economies in our country's history, and he started wrecking it immediately. | 6/19/2003 |
| fan of fan | Yes Bush the first and his Secretary of Defense (Dick Cheney) should have finished Desert Storm. However, doing so would not have taken care of the guy who was responsible for 9/11. That was Osama bin Laden. Incidentally, Hussein and bin Laden are both lunatics that our government funded (against Iran and the USSR, respectively) for years. | 6/19/2003 |
| fan of fan | Brion, do you think we should go after every tyrant in the world? If so, we need to take care of business in Saudi Arabia as well. Saudi Arabia is maybe the most repressive regime in the world and has funded a large part of the terrorism. Saudi Arabia was home to 15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11. | 6/19/2003 |
| The Old Veteran | How soon we forget 9/11 we should have finished Desert Storm and the Towers would still be standing!!!! Go President Bush you have my support I love my freedom!!!! |
6/19/2003 |
| Susan | NATALIE MAINES IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN A BIG MOUTH SPOILED BRAT!!!!! | 6/19/2003 |
| Linda | I didn't realize how the Bush administration was going after veterans benefits until I read Buccaneers post. I looked it up on Google and sure enough there it was. How dare this administration wrap itself in our flag and cut benefits to those who fought so bravely for all of us!!! The more I learn about this administration the more I agree with Natalie Maines statement about Bush. | 6/18/2003 |
| Frank | Jessica's doesn't think it's OK for anyone to wear an "FUTK" shirt but wants to sell "FUDC" shirts? That's typical of the logic of the anti-DC camp. Props to Natalie Maines for saying what she thinks, not what she thinks people want to hear! That takes guts. | 6/18/2003 |
| fan | It's not that they don't like their music because of what they said, it's that they are so disgusted and will not listen to their music anymore. For example if you liked a certain product and their commercial portrayed something against your beliefs, you may not buy that product ever again. It may work fine, but your opinion has changed about it. | 6/17/2003 |
| Pat | Amen, Derek! Your typical country music listener has a hard time dealing with anyone who doesn't think the way he does, especially if it's a woman!!! | 6/17/2003 |
| Derek | If what someone says or believes makes you decide that you don't like their music, that doesn't say very much about you. Then again, no one has ever accused country music fans of being open-minded. | 6/17/2003 |

| Jane | Toby Keith rules. I have nothing nice to say about the Dixie Chicks, so we shall leave it at that. | 6/17/2003 |
| Buccaneers! | I respect Toby Keith for writing a song to honor his late father, especially because his father fought for this country. My father also fought for this country, in Vietnam. I am proud of him, and everyone else who has defended our freedoms. That's why I am bothered about what the Bush administration tried to do to veterans' benefits. The Bush budget, passed by the House of Representatives on March 21, 2003, cut $28.6 billion from veterans' benefits while approving a $726 billion tax cut, the majority of which was to go to the richest 1%. Thankfully, a bipartisan effort in the Senate restored most of those cuts and reduced the tax cut. It's amazing to me that the "Liberal media" never reported this travesty. Thank goodness for a few elected officials from both parties who care about those who risked their lives for this country. My dad doesn't depend on those benefits, but there are a lot of vets who do, and we do precious little to help them as it is. | 6/13/2003 |
| tk4ever | does anyone know where i can find shirtless pictures of toby? | 6/13/2003 |
| fan of fan | Yeah, Saddam Hussein is a terrorist who doesn't deserve to walk this earth. I agree with that. But he's not the one who perpetrated to attacks on 9/11. I thought those were the terrorists we were after. When we couldn't find Osama bin Laden we decided to go for someone easier to find. Just two problems with that idea: 1. We can't find Saddam Hussein, either. 2. Now we have to decide what to do with Iraq. What plan do we have for Iraq? Does anyone know? I keep hearing the word "democracy" used. That means "one person, one vote." I am sure FAN doesn't understand this, because he has voted for Toby Keith about 4000 times on this poll. What would "democracy" mean for Iraq? It would mean that the Shiite majority (over 60% of the population) would control the government, just like in Iran. You remember Iran, one of the other "Axis of Evil" countries? We won't let that happen, but we can't let the Kurds (about 30%) take control either. That would anger our good friends in Turkey. So what do we do? Did anyone in the administration think about this? I doubt it. So it looks like we will engage in nation-building, and that's not going to make anyone in the Middle East or elsewhere happy. I am afraid that the result will be more resentment of the US and increased terrorism. |

| Linda | I think that DC=Free Speech calling Toby Keith a "moron" (which I don't agree with, because he obviously understands what the market wants) is very minor compared to the names that some of the other posters have called the Dixie Chicks. | 6/12/2003 |
| fan | Yeah for oil, because we sure stole alot of oil from them in the last war(note the sarcasm). Oil for what Oil? Do you think we will take it? Come on we are not thieves. Yes it was worth it. I guess you want terrorists to run the world. Funny how poeple side with terrorists...And DC=Free Speech, go ahead and attack his music, thats only veru ignorant of you. WHy don't you start name calling next, oh wait you did("moron"). Kiss politicians butt? How, by writing a patriotic song that he had very stong feelings towards? Keith says he wrote the song about his father, Hubert "H.K." Covel, who served in the Army. Covel died March 24, 2001, in a car crash. "He taught me to be a flag-waving patriot long before it was cool to wave a flag like it is now," Keith said. So there he writes for reasons. Do your homework. The dixie Chicks have a person named Robin Lynn Macy writing their songs. I dont call that talented. Yes TRUE they have great vocals and they make a great group. I am not bashing them, they are a successful group and I do not think their music is bad. There's the difference. I have heard both musicians many songs and am not attacking a certain one just the actions of them is not needed. Just keep politics out of music. They hurt a lot of their loyal fans by doing what they did. I support free speech, but come on...keep your thoughts to yourself when your a professional. These girls have gotten death threats, vandalized houses all because Natalie said what she said. Overall, both good musicians, some people just need to know when to keep their mouth shut. |

| Concerned | I support the Dixie Chicks! They spoke out against a President for fighting starting a war for oil. Iraq doesn't have any weapons of mass destruction. Wake up, America! This war was for oil, and Bush, Rumsfeld, and Chaney thought it was worth sacrificing the lives of over 100 brave Americans and who knows how many Iraqi civilians. Was it worth it? | 6/12/2003 |
| 4 T.K | Toby's the man!!! | 6/12/2003 |
| Jodi | I can't believe that the Dixie Chicks could stoop so low as to write F.U.T.K on a T-shirt.I'm sure they could make better use of their time than to make a personalized shirt! | 6/12/2003 |
| DC = FreeSpeech | The only song I ever heard from TK was that crappy patriotic song he did. The DC are a much better talent and don't kiss the butt of the politicians. I didn't see the DC's putting up a cropped image of Saddam with TK. Why did this low life TH have to stoop so low? What a moron, just like his music. | 6/12/2003 |
| Linda | Here's my favorite quote about the Dixie Chicks and their comments in March. This came from a protester in South Carolina in early May, and was reported in the Ft. Worth Star-Telegram: "You don't speak out against your commander-in-chief unless there's scandal, like Clinton." Talk about your twisted logic. I think it illustrates the thinking of too many people in this country: "You are entitled to say what you believe, as long as I agree with it." |
6/12/2003 |
| TK fan | I think the coments made about the present and the shirt worn were very tastless and i will never buy a Dixie Chicks album again.....sorry girls, get some class. | 6/11/2003 |
| Not a D.C. fan! | I believe women should keep quiet and look pretty. The D.C. can't do either one! | 6/11/2003 |
| Mod | Alright well that is fine, just a misunderstanding. | 6/11/2003 |
| fan of fan | Mod, I was just commenting on fan's ability to generate thousands of votes for Toby Keith, which I think is evidence of his admiration for Mr. Keith. I don't think mentioning that is a personal "attack" is it? | 6/11/2003 |
| Mod | "fan of fan" this board is for comments about the article not personal attacks towards other posters. | 6/11/2003 |
| fan of fan | fan must really like Toby Keith. Every time he posts a comment, Toby Keith's vote total increases by 1000. Awwww, that's so sweet! | 6/11/2003 |
| joel | the chicks are annoying | 6/11/2003 |
| fan of fan | How are you able to cast 10 votes for Toby Keith each second? | 6/11/2003 |
| fan | Yeah so why didnt she stand up for herself and explain what it really meant? She never tried to explain, now even after what the media says, she still hasn't said "no that wasn't directed towards toby keith at all". | 6/11/2003 |
| F U T K | What's so disruptive about wearing a shirt that says "FREEDOM UNDERSTANDING TRUTH KNOWLEDGE"? I think that if Natalie Maines had wanted to send a message to Toby Keith, she would have worn a shirt with "FYTK" on it, right? Apparently some people are afraid of freedom, truth, understanding, and knowledge. | 6/11/2003 |
| Not a T.K. fan! | I think the statistics that the Dixie Chicks cited about domestic violence are more believable than the claim that Iraq had a stockpile of weapons of mass destruction. | 6/11/2003 |
| Not a D.C. fan! | I turn the radio off whenever anything by the Dixie Chicks is played and I no longer buy Lipton products if they sponsor a goup like the D.C. They are fake. They cited made-up statistics when they played their horrible song about killing Earl purporting support to victims of domestic violence. Who are they to judge Toby Keith for supporting patriotism and the United States? Get a life chicks! | 6/10/2003 |
| jwalker | looks like everyone likes toby better anyway | 6/10/2003 |
| fan | The chicks should have let it go. They messed up once. Let it die down. They were supposedly respondingto keith photos at his concert of them with saddam. Only the people at the concert were meant to see that. Now she goes and disrupts the upbeat, patriotic atmosphere of the Award show by wearing that shirt on national television. Give me a break. Grow up. | 6/10/2003 |
| Gary | Oh, and I have to disagree that Toby Keith is the best country singer ever. I would rank Johnny Cash, George Jones, Marty Robbins, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Reba McIntyre and many more way above him. | 6/10/2003 |
| Gary | Can you verify this information about the Dixie Chicks? | 6/10/2003 |
| Ashley | The Dixie Chicks Are a bunch of sluts and they need to shut their damn mouths about Toby Keith he is the best country singer ever | 6/10/2003 |
| Sandi | Hi Kurd! I agree with what you said about Toby Keith. He is an opportunist like some other country music singers. They rush to record songs that capitalize on some event and then pocket the bucks from it. | 6/10/2003 |
| Naomi | Nothing to do with the immature behavior of both acts, I just always liked Keith's music. Dixie Chicks -- yes, good musicians and Mains has a stellar voice, but their choice of songs has always left me cold. | 6/10/2003 |
| Bo | I agree with Toby all these people who disagree should get out of here. Its time we returned America to the real Americans so things can be like they used to be. | 6/10/2003 |
| Buccaneers! | Crimson Dynamo, I don't think that anyone ever said that Natalie Maines' freedom of speech is being compromised by people boycotting her music. What I and others who have supported the Dixie Chicks in this forum have criticized is the characterization of her as anti-American. All she said was "Just so you know, we're ashamed the President of the United States is from Texas." People who disagree with the President are no less patriotic than people who do. If that were the case, there would be no room for dissent, and dissent is vital to this or any free society. | 6/10/2003 |
| Maryanne | I love the Dixie Chicks! | 6/10/2003 |
| Crimson Dynamo | Ms. Maines' freedom of speech is not infringed upon by people not buying her music! The First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances." If people disagree with Ms. Maines, decide to purchase other music, or bash the heck out of her, her Freedom of Speech is not infringed upon, and those that disagree with her are exercising their own Freedom of Speech! |

| Caleb | I wasn't a fan of the Dixie Chicks until all these people started attacking them. Now I have Wide Open Spaces, Fly, and Home. I listen to them and really enjoy their music. This is not the "end of a truly talented trio." Their sales have not suffered, because most Americans have the mental capacity to realize that saying what you believe is not a crime. What is "ANTI-AMERICAN" is saying that someone doesn't have a right to say what she thinks, just because you disagree with her! | 6/10/2003 |
| Kurd | KKK=LOL! Toby Kieth is an ignorant k'boy slob that needs the crap kicked off his smelly boots! He's nothing more than a hick opportunist--aa well as a cheap imitation of Boxcar Willy. | 6/9/2003 |
| Jeff Gode | I HATE THE ANTI-AMERICAN DIXIE CHICKS!!! (Just me, or does Natalie look like a bulldog?) | 6/9/2003 |
| Gary | Natalie RULES and so does freedom of speech! | 6/9/2003 |
| blondie | natalie sucks, the other girls should fire her and find a new lead singer. | 6/9/2003 |
| KKK | I love Toby Keith! He's so cute when he does those Ford commercials and plays at our rallies! | 6/9/2003 |
| Joey | Nothing TK or NM says concerns me. What some of you say does bother me. Calling people names or saying someone is a disgrace because you don't believe with them is childish. I don't like country music anyway. | 6/9/2003 |
| Buccaneers! | Jeremy, are you saying that Natalie Maines is not entitled to voice her opinion? When has she said ANYTHING against the USA or the men and women fighting for their country? Never. Just because she said she was ashamed to be from the same state as the President does not make her un-American, any more than those conservatives--and there were millions of them--who attacked Bill Clinton for eight years. And, as I recall, this country was in a lot better shape when Clinton was President. | 6/9/2003 |
| Jeremy | The Dixie Chicks, no actually just that stupid hag Natalie Maines, sure managed to wreck a bad thing. It's unfortunate that her stupidity will obviously lead to the end of a truly talented trio. Natalie is apparently to ignorant to know when to shut her mouth. She just needs to go away, and the media needs to stop giving her a chance to be seen (or heard). | 6/8/2003 |
| Jessica ,12 | I HATE NM ,I WOULD LIKE TO WEAR ASHIRT THAT SAYS F.U.N.M. I LOVE MY COUNTRY AND TOBY KEITH ,HOW STUPID NM WAS FOR SAYING F.U.T.K. I WILL BURN ALL THERE CD'S THANK U BYE |
6/8/2003 |
| Cheryl | I hope everyone stops listening to the dixie chicks, they do not deserve the right to perform in this great country. They think they are above everyone and the fans can stop that. I personally will not buy any albums or listen to their music. | 6/8/2003 |
| BT | People don't pay to hear their political comments. They should play their music and keep their opinions to themselves. Most stars can't manage their own lives anyway | 6/8/2003 |
| Matt Kyriacou | Placing an order today for my FUNM (and yes the NM is Natalie Maines) shirt. | 6/8/2003 |
