Tonight... I spent a little time surfing.. trying to find "celebrities" who are outspoken in support of our country, our government, and our military... I happened acroos the web page for one of my all time favorite Country Music performers... none other than Charlie Daniels... thought I would share with you a few of his postings on the site...

Sean Penn Gives Aid and Comfort To The Enemy

I’ve seen a lot of stupid things done in the name of trying to make
America look bad but not since Jane Fonda’s ill fated trip to Hanoi have
I seen anything as stupid and totally unpatriotic as Sean Penn’s trip to
Baghdad.

It was tantamount to spitting in the face of America, an act so low that
I don’t believe that the likes of Barbara Streisand and Alex Baldwin
would stoop to it. It amounts to treason in my book.

I would like to see Mr. Penn, hell I’m not going to call him mister,
Baghdad Sean have to live under Saddam Hussein's rule for about six
months and see what he thinks of America then.

America has put him in a privileged class with money and perks that few
people on earth ever know and he has chosen to turn his back on it.
When I hear somebody defend this creep it makes my blood boil.

I heard a guy the other night saying that it was good for Sean Penn to
go to Iraq so he could evaluate the situation for himself. That is one
of the most asinine statements ever uttered.

What he saw was exactly what Saddam wanted him to see. What did he
expect to find? Of course he saw misery, of course he saw
deprivation, that’s what’s happening in Iraq and it is not the fault of
the embargo imposed on the country. It is because of a heartless SOB by
the name of Saddam Huessien. The minute he’s gone you’ll see the world
rush to the aid of Iraq.

Sean Penn you are a disgrace to America and I don’t care what your
Hollywood friends pat you on the back and tell you. You have insulted
every man and woman who wears the uniform of this nation. You have
stepped on the graves of everybody who ever died in the cause of
freedom. You have allowed yourself to be used by an enemy so evil that
I can’t even find the words to describe him.

You don’t even deserve the right to call yourself an American. You are
despicable and vile and you have dirt on your hands that you’re going to
have to live a long time to wash off, if ever.

You will live to regret your little foray into enemy territory Sean
Penn. The blood of innocent life lost on 9 -11 cries out against you;
for what is the difference between Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Ladin?

You’ve insulted every white cross in Arlington cemetary and
every mother who ever lost a son or daughter to the horrors of war.
If I see your name on a marquee I will not attend the movie, if one of
your movies comes on TV, I will change the channel.

I’m sick and tired of people like you whose unrealistic view of the
world manifests itself in blaming America for the ills of the world.

Sean Penn if this country is as bad as you seem to think why don’t you
just do the ones of us who love it a favor and get the hell out. I’m
sure you can afford to live just about anywhere you want to. You might
try France, they don’t seem to have much use for America or better than
that, why don’t you just find an island somewhere. And if you go how
about taking the rest of your buddies with you? Then you can all go and
build the kind of country you want to live in. You don’t even have to
have a military, you can all take turns being president, or I have a
better idea, why don’t you take Bill and Hillary along and they can
just be king and queen.
I heard it in a CDB song one time, “When you shake hands with the devil
you get burned”.

What do you think?

Baghdad Sean Is At It Again

There is a very radical far left, little known satellite network which I
will not even name, one of those condescending, pseudo high brow
supposedly intellectual outfits who just loves to criticize America.

I was surfing the other day and saw the face of none other than Baghdad
Sean Penn, the traitorous little Hollywood hotshot who went to Iraq to
try to make America look bad.

He was pointing out that the Iraqi people were in terrible shape, they
were being deprived of the essentials of life, food and medicine and
such and that the American embargo was the cause of all their ills.

I got so mad I had to change channels. Here is this American citizen,
who has reaped rewards far beyond those of 99.9% of the people in this
nation, standing there blaming the woes of the Iraqi people on the
United States of America.

This is idiocy. Our embargoes have caused this situation. Mr. Penn,
did Saddam Hussein have nothing to do with it?

Do you not think that this unspeakable monster and his family live in
mansions and indulge their every whim while his people live in abject
misery?

Are you naive enough not to know that you were shown exactly what Saddam
wanted you to see? Did he show you any of the torture chambers where he
tortures little children to obtain confessions from their parents. Did
he show you the underground tunnels where he stores his chemical and
biological weapons? Did he show you any of the women who have been
raped and horribly abused by his maniac son?
Don’t you know that even if we lifted the embargo that the major part of
the aid would never get to the people, that it would be taken away by
Saddam and his henchmen?

What is it about Hollywood that so blinds you people to the evil in the
world, why do you insist that the United States is such a terrible
nation?

The people of Iraq will only get the things they need when Saddam is six
feet under the sand. He is the problem, he is the cause of the misery
the Iraqi people are going through.

I did not even hear the words Saddam Hussein come out of your mouth, how
can you be so blind? The Iraqi people’s problems didn’t start with the
American embargo or even the first Gulf War. They started when Saddam
came to power.

Iraq could be a rich and prosperous country if their leader didn’t spend
all their resources on military hardware and armies.

What about the billions of dollars he gets from France and Germany and
the other countries he has oil deals with? Do you see him spending any
of that money on food and medicine for his starving citizens?

How dare you blame Iraq’s problems on the U.S.A. and have the nerve to
come back to this country. You should have stayed and used some of the
millions of dollars you’ve made in this evil nation to help the Iraqi
citizens.

One thing about it Mr. Penn, you will be remembered for a whole lot more
than your acting. There will be hundreds of thousands of men and women
who proudly wear the uniform of the United States of America who will
remember you for a long time. They will remember that you went to an
enemy country and gave aid and comfort to not only an enemy, but also
one of the most evil people on the face of the earth.

They will remember your words, criticizing the country they love enough
to die for.

I wouldn’t be going to any Veterans of Foreign War meetings if I were
you, Mr. Penn.

By the way do you remember Jane Fonda?

What do you think?

Charlie Daniels

This following one is my favorite... and it begs the question... what does Charlie think of the Dixie Chicks... Oh.. I will be monitoring his site to find out...

An Open Letter To The Hollywood Bunch

Ok let’s just say for a moment you bunch of pampered, overpaid,
unrealistic children had your way and the U.S.A. didn’t go into Iraq.

Let’s say that you really get your way and we destroy all our nuclear
weapons and stick daisies in our gun barrels and sit around with some
white wine and cheese and pat ourselves on the back, so proud of what
we’ve done for world peace.

Let’s say that we cut the military budget to just enough to keep the
National Guard on hand to help out with floods and fires.

Let’s say that we close down our military bases all over the world and
bring the troops home, increase our foreign aid and drop all the trade
sanctions against everybody.

I suppose that in your fantasy world this would create a utopian world
where everybody would live in peace. After all, the great monster, the
United States of America, the cause of all the world’s trouble would
have disbanded it’s horrible military and certainly all the other
countries of the world would follow suit.

After all, they only arm themselves to defend their countries from the
mean old U.S.A.

Why you bunch of pitiful, hypocritical, idiotic, spoiled mugwumps.
get your head out of the sand and smell the Trade Towers burning.
Do you think that a trip to Iraq by Sean Penn did anything but encourage
a wanton murderer to think that the people of the U.S.A. didn’t have the
nerve or the guts to fight him?

Barbra Streisand’s fanatical and hateful rankings about George Bush
makes about as much sense as Michael Jackson hanging a baby over a
railing.

You people need to get out of Hollywood once in a while and get out into
the real world. You’d be surprised at the hostility you would find out
here.
Stop in at a truck stop and tell an overworked, long distance truck
driver that you don’t think Saddam Hussein is doing anything wrong.

Tell a farmer with a couple of sons in the military that you think the
United States has no right to defend itself.

Go down to Baxley, Georgia and hold an anti-war rally and see what the
folks down there think about you.

You people are some of the most disgusting examples of a waste of
protoplasm I’ve ever had the displeasure to hear about.

Sean Penn, you’re a traitor to the United States of America. You gave
aid and comfort to the enemy. How many American lives will your
little, ”fact finding trip“ to Iraq cost? You encouraged Saddam to
think that we didn’t have the stomach for war.

You people protect one of the most evil men on the face of this earth
and won’t lift a finger to save the life of an unborn baby. Freedom of
choice you say?

Well I’m going to exercise some freedom of choice of my own. If I see
any of your names on a marquee, I’m going to boycott the movie. I will
completely stop going to movies if I have to. In most cases it
certainly wouldn’t be much of a loss.

You scoff at our military who’s boots you’re not even worthy to shine.
They go to battle and risk their lives so ingrates like you can live in
luxury.
The day of reckoning is coming when you will be faced with the
undeniable truth that the war against Saddam Hussein is the war on
terrorism.

America is in imminent danger. You’re either for her or against her.
There is no middle ground.

I think we all know where you stand.

What do you think?

God Bless America

"The Bush administration this week released a list of the top contractors who will rebuild the infrastructure of Iraq after we defeat them. Among the top five are Haliburton (Dick Cheney's company) and the Carlyle Group (G. Bush Sr., Rumsfeld, and many other familiar names). We are paying $2.14/gal for regular out here in CA; do you not think that the Texas oil industry is not profiting from this? Someone does want war, and it is the people in power in Washington who are making money now and will reap tremendous profits when this is done."

"Again and again, they have a right to say whatever they want (as long as it is not slanderous or libelous) anywhere, anytime about anyone. This is what this country is built on. "


"IMO, considering the overwhelming opposition to our plan of action from nearly every other country in the world, Natalie Maines' statement probably sounds, right or wrong, like a solitary voice of reason to those outside the US. The fact that she can express her opinion is probably the strongest example of our freedoms that we can portray."

I totally agree w/your quotes, seriousfun. I have heard of the Dixie Chicks but am not familiar w/their music. However, I was glad to hear that word got out that not all Americans agree with Bush or the actions his administration is taking. I just wish Bush had listened to what most of the rest of the world has been saying, along w/what a lot of us in this country have been saying, instead of having his agenda set from the get go.

ROFL... a weeee bit sarcastic today huh? Someone needs a spankin. LOL

Our local stations here (all 3 are owned by the same company) have made it a new policy to not take Dixie Chicks out of the song rotation. But when their songs come up in the computer each DJ is allowed to replace it with Proud to be an American or a patriotic song of the DJ's choice...needless to say there has not been a Dixie Chick song on the radio here in 5 days.

BlueSwede,

One of the splendid things about this community is that it is location independent, and we can enjoy conversation with people in Great Britain, Australia, Canada, and Argentina.

Have you ever wondered why the postings here are from people who live in liberal democracies? I suspect that it is because they are free to do so.

I, for one, look forward to the day when democracy and its necessary freedoms are no longer thought of as a western phenomena. And no, I do not consider that idea to be imperialistic; rather I consider it to be a human ideal towards which we should all strive.

Irish,

Radio monitoring service Mediabase 24/7 said that airplay for the group had dropped on all US radio stations by about a fifth in a seven-day period.
Mediabase president Rich Meyer said: "Radio generally reflects the mood of the country.
“If radio perceives that its listeners are upset with the Dixie Chicks, they will respond accordingly."

horseman12,

Now that would be a re-enlistment bonus which would be difficult to ignore. Indeed, I’m willing to wager that any branch of the armed forces that could provide such an attractive incentive would have no problems meeting its staffing goals. It would stiffen my resolve, that’s for sure.

one station that is called the Preview Channel.It acts like a
TV Guide and tells what is on.I was looking at it last night,because
most of the shows listed in the TV Guide,are wrong because of
conflict coverage.It showed Faith Hill,performing at Fort Bragg.Her
husband,Tim McGraw was there also!It's nice to know that some-
one is showing suppot for the troops! Irish
