Dixie Chicks make news again...

[Vernon in Virginia~Formerly Alaska]

Natalie Maines (lead singer and mighty mouth of the Dixie Chicks) says: "The entire country may disagree with me, but I don't understand the necessity for patriotism," Maines resumes, through gritted teeth. "Why do you have to be a patriot? About what? This land is our land? Why? You can like where you live and like your life, but as for loving the whole country

A patient at the Dentist office I work in had some currency from alot of different countrys, and was showing them to me. I didn't really think about it before but... In Turkey they have a 500,000L note, Mexico a $10,000 note, Syria a 500,000d note. And other countrys have the same large denomination bills. In alot of the world, the people need large quantities of cash to buy the simple things we here in the states pay a few $'s for. I am offended by the kind of statements made by the likes of the'Dixie Chicks". To not have Pride for our Troops and to not know patriotisim, I just don't understand. Yet in America you can have these thoughts and announce them to all who will listen and by most accounts won't get jailed because of it. I don't have to agree with such statements---I will however fight to the Death your right to say them. I also won't buy any of their D@##n# records either!!!God Bless America, land of the Free, and the home of the Brave!!
