Now, even Willie Nelson's an asshole.

I've loved him for decades. Now I have to throw away away his crap and bitch at the radio stations.

Seen Yahoo News tonight?

What an asshole. After all this country has done for HIM. He attacks us.

ASSHOLE. Die, motherf*cker. Die.

That isn't a death threat, is it?
While I strongly disagree with the political behaviors he has enaged in recently, I don't think he needs to die. He has a right to free speech.
Have you read the lyrics? They are quite moving.

He's been an asshole for quite a few years now. There's nothing new about that.

Willie's politics dont figure into what I thin about him.

What Mattja said before I could. He's been a Barbara Streisand political type as long as I can remember, only his songs are different.

This is why I just steal his music off the internet.

The same old cliche that every anti war protestor who doesn't know what they hell they're talking about falls back on is the "wahhh we're fighting for OIL! Dat's bad waaa" oh shut up!

When people say that stupid shit, I love to remind them their every fill up is in direct support of the war! [;)]

Isn't he a buddy of Jimmy Carter's? What did you expect? Just because he's a country singer doesn't mean he's not a liberal.

Not quite. You should relax before your heart kills you.

I've never had the fondness for Willie that most of my friends have. Now most ot them are pissed at him.

But I still listen to his music, and the Dixie Chicks. Just have to ignore thier politics, because if the media didn't have them in the limelight spouting this drivel, they would just find someone else.

Because really, who would listen to a guy with hair that looks like a mules tail and a bunch of blondes?

My prediction is that Toby Kieth will be one of the next ones to hate.. Just my .02... fullclip

Like so many other of these music-types;

"Sing!.....DON'T TALK.....just Sing!"

Willy can be "cool" in some ways. But I've known that he was an arse in this way for years. Just like Mellencamp too.

I am a professional musician, but evidently all these years of haning around entertainment biz people hasn't made me hate my country yet. And it never will. What can you say about this? Some people are just plain WRONG in the way they think.
