AMERICAN CENSORSHIP In March 2003 The Dixie Chicks stated that they were ashamed that President Bush hailed from their home state of Texas. As a result the Country music crowd lambasted them. You know who these people are, they're the ones who play dress up by donning costumes comprised of denim pants, snap-button shirts, 5 pound belt buckles with castings of semi-tractors glued to them, and of course, the ubiquitous "cowboy boots." I suppose these clowns dress this way so they can spot a fellow shit-kicker at a distance. They love to knock anyone who lives in a city with a library, and are always threatening to kick the crap out of anyone who doesn't display good manners, and then sit at the dinner table while wearing a two foot tall "cowboy" hat. These are the guys who have stringy, greasy hair down to their asses, and still see imaginary sandal-clad hippies with beards. The Dixie Chicks must be devastated over no longer being able to count these half-wits as fans. The girls then apologized for the remark, but were still ostracized by the sub-20 IQ crowd, because they were "unpatriotic," the favorite word used by Conservatives to describe anyone who doesn't do as they're told. Now The Chicks have withdrawn the apology, and the girls are being accused of "not supporting the troops," the latest bit of slanderous rhetoric used by the Conservatives to describe anyone who doesn't practice blind faith to the President. Yesterday I checked a Conservative message board for amusement and I wasn't disappointed. My favorite posting was by a pinhead who said that she: "Couldn't understand why anyone would be interested in a celebrity's opinions." She then went on a page long diatribe about recent celebrity opinions she had heard. Can you say: hypocrite? The guy who made my day, however, was a staunchly pro war, pro Bush, pro anything he was told to be in favor of by the "right" people. He was on a Fox news show commenting on the Dixie Chicks and their "unpatriotism," and remarked that they should leave the President alone, and just shut their mouths and sing. That's a trick I'd like to see. Bush says of our enemies, "They hate us for our freedom," but I guess that doesn't include the freedom to disagree with him.

LATEST RELIGIOUS LOONEY NEWS I haven't posted in a while so there's some catching up to do. Rather than rant I'll just give a brief explanation of, and links to, the latest lunacies engaged in by the, "people of faith," as the Religious Wrong prefers to be called. Republican has been, Tom DeLay, plans to spend his time dissolving the separation of church and state. DeLay also stated that he "is proud of the fact that he plays golf." What the fuck does that mean? No sense in trying to make sense out of the mutterings of a looney I suppose. The Birmingham, Alabama Steeldogs, an Arena Football team, had a "faith night," during which the players wore "biblical themed jerseys". What I find particularly disturbing about this is that Birmingham is somewhat advanced as Confederate towns go. There are several residents there with full sets of teeth, and the ability to use them to chew gum, while simultaneously walking. The State of Georgia is intent on offering bible study classes in its public schools. Thank Christ very few people in Georgia can read, especially the school kids. A Knoxville, Tennessee bible college student-moron, set an adult bookstore on fire, in order to "serve God." I guess he'll become a bible teacher in Georgia eventually. If the people of the South weren't such a demented, dangerous bunch, one could spend a lifetime laughing at their collective stupidity.
