Dixie Chicken

Do you trust the Dixie Chicks? I don't

I mean if your back was against the wall and you were surrounded by hostile forces would you call on the Dixie Chicks for help? I wouldn't

If you fell in love with them, built a house for them do you think they would run away with the guitar player one day? I do.

Their blog is so stupid that I'm just going to pull a few sentences to illustrate my point.

"The Chicks woke up in Chickago at 3 am to prepare for their interview with Oprah Winfrey, which will air today. A big deal, for sure. You will see a compelling hour of television during which the Dixie Chicks reveal how they went about adopting a baby from Malawi..." - that's right, they adopted a baby.

"The red carpet event (the premiere of their movie) at the Regal Cinemas in Union Square included VIPs such as Lauren Bacall, Harvey Weinstein, Sandra Bernhard, and Princess Bitterpants." - Sounds like a very nice group of people.

"The loud afterparty at Ultra also brought out luminaries such as Stanley Tucci, Jeffrey Wright, Richard Belzer..." - Did you say Luminaries?

"Just another ordinary day: the Chicks are taping interviews with Larry King, Charlie Rose, and Chris Matthews (from MSNBC's Hardball)" - i.e. tools of the Media Industrial Complex.

The Dixie Chicks are trying to turn sedition into a living wage and generate money by exploiting their duplicity, ignorance and brash contempt for their country and President. They should be ashamed of themselves and so should all the people, companies and institutions who are going along for the ride. That means you Oprah. You to Larry King.

I'm a regular Fox & Friends viewer (mostly in protest of the other insipid morning programs like Today and Good Morning America) so over the years I've gotten to know Gretchen Carlson pretty well. Stuck between Steve and Brian she always seemed a prudish scold with an irritating, self-righteous demeanor that I simply put up with because I figured some people in the Fox audience actually liked her persona. It was obvious that Steve and Brian did not, but they were stuck with her like so many talking heads and had to make the best of it - which they did. Besides, she was no worse than any of the other women on morning show TV - I mean, you're only going to find a certain kind of person to do this kind of work and that kind of person is the Gretchen Carlson kind. Then, one day, she was gone and replaced by Elisabeth Hasselbeck and the F&F ratings began to climb, and climb and climb - in two months view...

Total Eclipse

Greatest Headline of All Time Those readers living outside of Charlottesville, VA or Central Virginia proper might not be aware of the ongoing effort to pull down and move the statue of Gen. Robert E. Lee from the town square otherwise known as Lee Park (not named after Harper Lee or Bruce Lee or Stan Lee but after the same Robert E. Lee). Charlottesville is a college town and like all college towns it's filled with college professors and assorted flakes who vote nincompoops into elected office as their representatives so it was no surprise to me when back in April the city council decided to do this : "Despite a pending court case that will ultimately determine the general’s fate, the Charlottesville City Council voted 3-2 Monday night to sell the city’s statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee." "Confederate General" is a sad, marginalizing descriptor for what surly must be one of the greatest Americans to ever walk this land and lead its people by p...
