The FREEPER strategy on responding to Dixie Chicks manager's comments

I rather enjoyed Dr. Raoul's commentary. We are all finished as a human race when we lose our sense of humor. The best threads mix content with blurbs of humor. No psychoanalysis is required - gee whiz!

Wait just a minute. When you state that FR members have no life, lol.

The Dixie Chick boycott is of interest to me because after years of disliking them, I was just warming up to them until London. They lost a new fan at a time when the music industry is trying to hold on to their market.

30,000 is about off by an order of magnitude.

The boycot of the Dixie Chicks will continue until a genuine apology is made that respects sincerely the objections that countless patriotic fans have with the Dixie Chicks remarks."
================================
The only appropriate venue for the apology is on a USO tour to the troops engaged in Operation Iraqi Freedom, so that they can bear the wrath of the betrayed.

So being new somehow makes my statements less valid than your own does it? You sir have an interesting view of freedom of speech. You sir are a bully.

*sigh* Okay, I'll bite: What the HELL are you talking about? I openly challenge anyone on FR to go to post 92 and explain to me how it is IN ANY AWAY an example of your bizarre accusation that I've somehow attacked your newbieness.

I re-read my post and I stated that if it were me, I wouldn't post Fr numbers on the DC thread. I wanted the thread to be about the Blixy Chicks, not about FR.

On second thought, It's great to have confirmation that there are over 100K members at Free Republic. We have a daily rise in membership thanks to people like you and thanks to Jim Robinson for starting it all!

Finally, we don't just sit at our pc's sipping coffee. We are active in our communities in many ways. Free Republic is moving up and we will wave at the Blixy Chicks on their trip down.

"Bye, bye, freepers."

I've been bumping this thread and added a primitive jpeg above for effect. I think the Dixie Chicks ruined their own careers and are on their way down from fame and fortune. Didn't any of their handlers ever tell them that fame and fortune can be fleeting? LOL

Has anyone seen or watched the Aussie TV interview done with the Chicks??? Hmmm.. good stuff. Shows the ignorance of an ill-fated band member as she takes her band down the tubes with her.

If I were the other two, I'd kick her ass, then kick her out.

They want to slam our Country
but still collect our dollars.

This is arrogance to the max!!!

Yet somehow it all makes sense to them.

Why is it so hard to love their country?
I guess all the Glory goes straight to their
own egos, and they forget to Thank God
for all their blessings, and ONE BLESSING
is being Born in a FREE Country.
