During a London concert ten days before the 2003 invasion of Iraq, lead vocalist Maines said, "we don't want this war, this violence, and we're ashamed that the President of the United States [George W. Bush] is from Texas".[1] The positive reaction to this statement from the British audience contrasted with the boycotts that ensued in the U.S., where the band was assaulted by talk-show conservatives,[2] while their albums were discarded in public protest.[2]
Shoot..I was ashamed he was from America....I liked the Dixie Chicks..but the Limbaughs and Hannitys made them disappear..

Yeah, but their first album after the hoopla was freaking awesome. I still love "Not Ready to Make Nice." Did you see the documentary, Shut Up and Sing?

Hell, let's all enjoy the video from "Not Ready to Make Nice."

Maines did anything but disappear. She was instrumental in the resolution of a miscarriage of justice for the West Memphis Three a few years back, and appears in the film about that, "West of Memphis." Great film. by the way.

And again, highly recommend Shut Up and Sing. It was a documentary being shot about their tour than happened to coincide with Maines' infamous comment, so the documentary shifted focus.

You remember their EW cover, yes?

hey, anyone encountering jerks online, post them in this thread.

it gives me faith in humanity that people are so giving when someone asks for help. it shakes my faith in humanity that people would fraudulently portray themselves for financial gain.

yep.
not sure who did the hiring, and unsure why this guy felt he had to explain himself-his explanation only makes it look that much worse.

yeah, just a violent nut on stage with who knows how many world leaders and others, hired to do something he can't do. brilliant.

On another note....Is this fair justice?..Not saying the gas chamber but probation for this..wonder what a minority kid from Chi on NY would get..never mind..

"Affluenza," the term used by a psychologist to argue that a North Texas teenager from a wealthy family should not be sent to prison for killing four pedestrians while driving drunk, is not a recognized diagnosis and should not be used to justify bad behavior, psychologists said Thursday.

Wasn't sure whether to post her here or under a new thread titled Hypocrite

Hypocrite thread would be nice that way we can all post the hypocrites we see going forward. The only question is if DerbyTrail.com has enough storage with the site host to account for such a thread.
