Charlie Daniels' name is 'Charlie Daniels', not 'Charlie Daniel'! Mebbe the silence is better than such misspelling.
A google news search turned up 6 stories:

Yes... I did see that, too. A whole 6 stories... Now type in:
Neil Young Impeach
and you get 448 stories...

That's because the Media types are long haired, hippy-type, pinko fags!
Oh I am sorry - I didn't mean to do that. Problem there is a typo that the spell-check doesn't pick up. I think the basic point is still there, though. Again, my apoligies to Mr. DanielS for that.

I don't disagree with your point.
Charlie is one hell of a nice guy.
I don't think he is doing what he is doing for media attention.
GOOD MAN Charlie.
Another Charlie Daniels ping.
See, I think about ya all the time!
No disagreement with your point.
Is Neil Young a US citizen yet?
I can't ever get this straight, is Charlie the older brother, or is it Jack?
Neil Young, Chili Peppers, Flaming Lips, many others, nobody, not one of these "artistes" speaks of artistic ideas, concepts, as the '50s, '70s rockers once did or attempted to. Perhaps in the 3 chord post-art-rock world there aren't any, any more. (Tell that to Paul McCartney or Elvis Costello, though.) But their infantile, inarticulate, uninformed Hollywood marxism, if that's what it is, does get on one's nerves.
I like Charlies music, but does he get stoned in the morning and drunk in the afternoon or does he have his way with people selling dope with a tall tree and a short piece of rope?
The major media are run by a bunch of neo-Bolsheviks. Their dirty little secret was revealed years ago and nothing like this should surprise anyone.
If you want the real news, you need to rely on talk radio, the internet, webgroups like this one, and VERY selective reading of ANY sources in the mainstream media.
Want a good laugh?
Check out one of the more recent issues of "TIME" magazine where they ran an article on "good" senators. Make sure you have a barf bag handy - maybe two - you'll need them.
That is true... I was born in 1971, but I am an avid music fan (particularly rock and roll) and I know much about music history.
The artists of today want to recapture that anti-war magic that was the late 60's - early 70's, but they just can't seem to do it. I heard Neil's latest cd and the power just isn't there.
Not that I would agree with the concepts behind the old songs, but they were much more powerful those days. Songs like "Eve of Destruction", "Fortunate One", and even Neil Young's "Ohio" were much better than the recent trash that Neil just put out.
I bet they even have commie flags tacked up on the wall inside their garage...
