(I’d rather look at Faith Hill)

As good looking as she is, Faith and her wimpy hubby are flaming libs.

Really shouldn’t be comparing The Won to Hitler.

Hitler didn’t need a teleprompter.

This was an absolutely ridiculous comparison by Hank Jr.

Hitler loved his adopted country of Germany.

Obama hates America.

A better comparison may be Stalin, or (economically) Mussolini.

Good thing this kind of “discipline” didn’t go on during the last administration, 99% of our entertainers would have been “pulled”.

If only Faith Hill would criticize Obama, then we wouldn’t have to endure that awful Sunday Night Football song.

I didn’t say it was fair...it’s not.

But those are good examples of why I don’t like singers and actors shooting their mouths off about politics...even if I might agree with them.

Entertainers who engage in political commentary must be willing to deal with the consequences.

Unless they're Leftists...

Natalie Maines would disagree.

Destroying those three anti-American bimbos was almost as sweet as disposing of Dan Rather. The left was never going to respect FReepers, but they learned to fear us.

Back when Bush was president that comment would have given you a prime spot every time.

the left getting people fired does this mean it is alright for beckel to be fired from FOX seeing as he loves to do the name calling and is a very bitter twisted man

I would have said....Republican or Conservative entertainer's....

Because there's an obvious double standard.

You are right, less than a rat’s ass. Lyrics: My name is Bocephus. I’m a son of a gun. Some of us are born with it, some of us don’t ever, ever get it. Thank God I’m a guitar man, and it’s true I love the money. And it’s true I love all the honeys. But the thing I really love is to get down with the band. Hank Williams Jr.
