If you guys knew the political ties of 85% of the musicians out there, you would only be listening to one or two artists, thats all that would be left

CF If I like their music and not their politics then I will still listen to the music, but I will not purchase any of their CD's and I will only see their movies when they are free on network TV or 85 cents at the video store. I don't mine them working I just want to make sure they don't make any money off of me

Re: Re: If

I heard on Foxnews or CNN last night that the Dixie Chicks are now in Australia. They were heard saying in a concert "we still believe in what we said about Bush"

I did not know

I did not know the truth offended so many majority of "decent" people. I just told the truth most artists are a little eccentric and tend to lean left. Maybe the decent majority will have to start blacklisting all art, music, actors, and people with a different opinion than them? Like there is some kind of competition on who can be the most patriotic. I won't listen to so and so, thats nothing I fly the flag on my CD player, nothing there, I won't listen to any music, go to any concerts, read any books, or watch any TV, till this thing is over. I wouldn't want to offend the decent majority.

I, for one, am in favor of blacklisting artists who act like the Dickie Chicks . I dont see anything wrong with it. It is our right to not buy their products, or listen to stations who play their music. If they are offensive then I dont have to listen to them, and I dont have to buy anything associated with them. Isnt America a wonderful double edged sword?? The Liberal pukes can spout freedom of speech all day long and freedom of expression all day long, and say that it is their right as Americans to say or do almost anything they like soooo. What is good for the liberal is also good for the conservative. I love this country. I also hope that the Dickie Chicks are hurt a lot, financially, forever, because of their loud mouthed attitude. God Bless America, and God Bless President George W. Bush, our Elected, not selected leader.

When will these "artists" discover that people buy tickets, cds, etc to hear them perform in their specified craft?



If I wanted their opinion on politics, war, global economics, or whatever, I'd ask for it.
