WZZK in birmingham has been playing an announcement that states "Due to OVERWHELMING letters and phone calls in response to anti american Comments. WZZK will no longer be playing Music by the Dixie Chicks." They have been forever banned by the largest Country station in alabama. I am betting this is happening nation wide. Sure the bitch has freedom of speech. She doesn't have freedom of consequnce of speech. I expect to see them at Mcdonalds working the FRENCH fry machine before long. mike |

After 9/11 who would think any one would protest kicking some sand man ass. The dumb shits are coming out of the woodwork like cockroaches. I never have forgivin or forgot old Hanoi Jane. Any thing with her in it is completly off limits to me. She should have been hung by her tits and beat to death with baseball bats, like a pinata. That bitch should not be allowed to breath the free air of america. The Ditzy Slits will now say everything that we want to here in hopes that we will start buying there products again. And eventually after they eat about a mile of crow and shit. People will forget or forgive and start playing their music again. Provided they keep their ate up with the dumbass pieholes shut. |

Quoted: just heard on headline news the dixie kunts are apologizing Too little, too late. Didn't help Trent Lott or Moran did it? I'd like to have heard the phone conversation from their producer and manager. Even Lipton who was supporting their "Top Of The World Tour", soon to be the "Down In The Gutter Tour" took an incrediable amount of heat. Their snide remark against the President does nothing but hurt the moral or our troops. Screw 'em, hope to see them flipping burgers at a Micky Dee"s. |

Aimless, DALLAS (Reuters) - There are a lot worse things in country music than your wife leaving you or your dog dying. There's stations not playing your music because you done gone and said some things against the president. Music superstars the Dixie Chicks (news - web sites) are finding out that criticizing President Bush (news - web sites)'s plans for war in Iraq (news - web sites) can cost you air play, big time. Country stations across the United States have pulled the Chicks from playlists following reports that lead singer Natalie Maines said in a concert in London earlier this week that she was "ashamed the president of the United States is from Texas." Station managers said their decisions were prompted by calls from irate listeners who thought criticism of the president was unpatriotic. The group, which got its start in Texas, was one of the darlings of this year's Grammy Awards. The three-woman band that blends blue grass and pop hooks has spawned legions of fans who embrace the ideals of strong women celebrated in some of the trio's songs. One station in Kansas City, Missouri held a Dixie "chicken toss" party Friday morning, where Chick critics were encouraged to dump the group's tapes, CDs and concert tickets into trash cans. OFF THE AIR Houston country station KILT pulled the band's records from its playlist -- at least temporarily -- after 77 percent of people polled on its Web site said they supported the move. "We've got them off the air for right now," said Jeff Garrison, program director at KILT, which is owned by Viacom's Infinity Broadcasting Corp. "People are shocked. They cannot believe Texas' own have attacked the state and the president," Garrison said. Lead singer Maines said in a statement she felt the president was ignoring the opinions of many in the United States and alienating the rest of the world by pushing for war with Iraq. "We've been overseas for several weeks and have been reading and following the news accounts of our government's position. The anti-American sentiment that has unfolded here is astounding," Maines said. One of the country stations in Dallas that helped champion the Chicks when they were scraping by in that city playing gigs on street corners for tips, "99.5 The Wolf," said they are listening to the listener's views but do not think it is right to immediately jump on the bandwagon and stop playing the Chicks, said program director Paul Williams. The whole "country" world is mad. |

Quoted: There is a poll on CMT.com and the Blixy Chix are dead. %79 of the poll responders said that's it for the Chix. Country music headline: "Hix Nix Chixs" Another poll is needed."Should the now vacant spot held by the Dixie Chix be given to a [u]deserving[/u] band?"...Cornbread. Or at least get a few words from Kenny Thomas about the things the Blixy Chix said. |
| N-G, it's just the fact that the thought of these ungrateful wenches have made a damn fine living, thanks to this country and it's people, makes my ass draw up like I just pulled a nose hair. Besides that, what made these reformed lot lizards ever possibly think that anyone with a lick of sense, would look to them for political expertise??? |

Quoted: Quoted: I'm ashamed that these loose legged, callous-backed gutter sluts are from Texas. [>Q] You think we can exile them to Chicago???????? We don't want the bitches. We have enough problems in the PRI right now. (SB 1195). Yes if you have PRI you do have problems, If PRI means painful rectal itch. |

This is too funny. At this site: [url]http://www.dixiechicksfans.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/forums.cgi?forum=1[/url] Over the last two days, people have been apeshit over the Fat Nats outrageous comment. In seriuos DU fashion, all the threads are gone. I posted a few more, and they are deleted in seconds. I think a concerted effort by arfcom army could drive these mods crazy, wadda ya think? |
| [b] I [size=3]used[/size=3] to like them too. Sweet justice would be .When they start they're US tour they sing to empty venue's. If not empty than close to it. Bad thing is seems all the shows are sold out . First US stop for them is Greenville South Carolina. Lets see what happens.[/b] |

Quoted: Lead singer Maines said in a statement she felt the president was ignoring the opinions of many in the United States and alienating the rest of the world by pushing for war with Iraq. I absolutely love the way that the overwhelming response to these ignorant comments completely negate the liberal view that America is not behind its National Command Authority and the 300,000 deployed service members. This is a grass roots affirmation of the royal ass-whoopin' that Saddam is about to get. |

At this site: [url]http://www.dixiechicksfans.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/forums.cgi?forum=1[/url] Just tried to access the site, and got the message that the site is shut down for "maitainance". Looks like they're busy deleting even more pissed off comments[:D] Wonder if they'll reopen it any time soon-----or maybe never??? |

You are free to say what you want, but then again, everyone else is free to call you an idiot. God bless America. |
