Dixie Chicks Whine About Being Put on Free Republic's 'Hatelist'(Freeper's Proud Moment)
NewsBusters ^ | 10/27/2006 | Geoffrey Dickens

Posted on 10/27/2006 10:57:40 AM PDT by tobyhill

MSNBC's Chris Matthews invited the Dixie Chick on last night's Hardball to promote the new documentary Shut Up and Sing and asked them if they felt their anti-Iraq position has been vindicated, to which the Chicks responded with martyred terms of being put on Free Republic's and "Christian fundamentalist" country fans' "hate list."

The following exchange occurred on the October 26th edition of Hardball:

Chris Matthews: "Martie, I get the feeling at the time that you folks, when you made that statement and you all stood behind it and took the heat for it, that the country world out there and country music was definitely for the war. I mean, I think of Toby Keith singing that song, ‘Remember How You Felt' which is basically a pitch that if you didn't like 9/11 you had to like Iraq, that they were basically lining up and saying this was a smart thing for the U.S. to do. It turns out most Americans all over the country think it's not a smart thing that we did."

from the interview Chris says...You're great, great looking too, actually."


Does he know how ridiculous he sounds as an "objective" reporter?

We don't have a hate list. We don't make death threats. At least I don't, and I strongly doubt other Freepers do.

Wow - that's interesting. Thanks for posting that.

And if this is the same Jac Holzman that I'm thinking about (and I think it is), I even know him!

Hey Chris! Hire a fact checker.

Can't do it. PMSNBC has a strict corporate policy forbidding facts on their programs.

Blacklists, memos, marching orders... I didn't get any of these here. What am I, chopped liver?

Of course not. Must be some snafu, a small oversight. I'll call Mr. Rove's office and see what's up.

I know. If we had that kind of power, we could have shut down lying liberals and their lying political commercials long ago. Without lying their agenda's would be dead in the water and listing to the left.....well they would be dead in the water in addition to the leftward list.

Chris was desperately hoping they were desperate enough to take him home with them.
