Listen I didn't read all these posts. The first one was enough to make me sick. In my opinoin this country leaders need to be supported whether you agree with them or not. So quite talking smack about them unless you could do better and then actually prove it oh.. and then still respect them becasue they are our countries leaders! As for Reba. She gets stuff done she kicks butt she's in things for the long haul and she's a good person which is more than I can say for any liberal I've ever met.

That's more than you can say for any liberal you ever met?! How ignarant are you!? Before I even begin, I want to warn you against using that ridiculous excuse about freedom of speech. It only works when your right is being suppressed, not when your opinion is being opposed. How ignorant are you to say that a "liberal" is a worse person then a Republican. I as a staunchy Democrat have friends and contacts in both parties. And for the record the use of liberal as a derrogatory term is stupid. But anyway, the single minded opinions of our idiotic president are what has gotten us into the worst mess si111cnce Vietnam. A good leader would listen to what the sixty percent of the country is telling that person, man or woman. As for the question of who represents us as a polital group on a celebrity level, that's silly because there are great artists on both sides, as well as some morons who don't deserve a percent of what they are paid. I most certainly hope that you don't enjoy the works of only Republicans, because that would be as severe a loss for you as it would be for me if in only enjoyed productions of people within my own party.

How ignorant am I? Well I guess that would be a matter of opinion. As for all that other crap you said well there might be some decent liberals who believe in some sane things but then they wouldn't be liberals would they. Not saying all liberals are mean ppl I just don't think what they believe makes sense. And in truth if the leaders weren't listening to sixty percent of the country then the country should step up and do something about it. If sixty percent of the country was really on the same side then we wouldn't have a problem. It's not sixty percent of the country its sixty percent of the people who speak out. That is one thing I will say about the republicans of this country they need to step up and speak their piece they let the wrong ppl determin which way this country goes, until something really decent is threatened. We can't wait for that. I don't enjoy the works of only republicans I enjoy the works of people who believe in what's right.. and who stand for what's right. I won't stand for anything else and I won't support any one who doesn't do the same.

I find this to be a sad state of affairs when people with different ideologies are attacking one another. Let's remember that we are all Americans and we want what's best for our country. I am moderate and lean slightly to the left and personally not pleased with the current administration. However, I have plenty of friends and loved ones who are extremely conservative in their political views but I don't allow that to dictate or define my relationships with them. They are all good, decent people just like there are plenty of responsible liberals who are not abusing substances nor forgoing bathing as seems to be the way they are stereotyped. We are a diverse nation and a democracy which means we can express our views and agree to disagree. We need to respect one another.
Remember "United we stand, divided we fall."
P.S.
Love both the Dixie Chicks and Reba. : ))) -

I think they're mixing the whole "southern conservative" thing together. All I have to say in response to that is this: I'm a Southern Conservative and I find incest absolutely stomach turning.

NetPlay525: "Her unabashed support of President Bush and her attacks on our freedoms (such as Freedom of Speech) are both shocking and sad.
The vast majority of America has woken up and now realizes that, in fact, Bu$h, Inc. is the worst President the USA has ever had. He is destroying our economy, he has made us far less safe than we've ever been and he and his cronies are doing everythign they can to take away our basic civil rights.
Is Reba really stupid or does she genuinly hate America? Those are the only two explanations."
Your reasoning reminds me of when Dana Carvey would do the Church Lady. Remember that character?
Church Lady had a guest on the show who said he didn't believe in God. Church Lady responded with "what else do you not believe in? America?"
snicker, snicker, snicker.
You are as entitled to your opinions and conclusions the exact same way that Reba is entitled to support who she chooses for President. It is the right of the pair of you, no one moreso than another.
Now if Reba earns more money, then she has the right of the free enterprise system to decide who she wants to fund for President. And you have the same right to donate money to whom you choose to support for President.
But I got to tell ya, I'm not so much pro-Republican, I just don't care for behavior from people who are liberals and Democrats and think that SNL stand up comedy humor is the Democratic platform, or 'Bush is stupid' is all that needs to be said to explain what the Democratic party has to offer.
But above all else, you really should learn how to reason. You don't make an inquiry, then conclude that those must be the answers to your questions.
I won't say Reba McEntire is 'stupid' nor does she 'hate America'.
Those aren't the only two explanations.
The third and more likely explanation is that Reba has an opinion that is different from yours.
And also, I can't help but notice that you posted this query, making its slanderous accusations, and you havent returned once to discuss this with any of the other posters.
So essentially, you are a hit-and-run poster.
You make the allegations and taunts, then leave it to others to fight out. -

First of all, Reba does not hate America. And just because she supports Bush does not mean she's a bad person. I personaly don't like Bush, but I don't go around hating his supporters. I don't even know why we're all talking about politics anyways, if you want to go bash celebrities for supporting certain parties then go somewhere else. You shouldn't hate people and acuse them of hating America just because of their veiws. And about the whole freedom of speech/Dixie Chicks thing, if the Dixies Chicks can say they are ashamed of Bush (and I support them with that), then why can't Reba say she supports him? I really don't understand.

So let me get this straight. Because she does not fall in line with your favorite policies she hates America?
Last I heard, living in America means that you are free to believe whatever you want, and that you are also free to voice your opinions.
You went too far when you accused her of hating America, just because she doesn't believe what you believe. -
Livana_Faolan — 19 years ago(January 25, 2007 11:27 PM)
^^^I agree. We all have different beliefs and that's what makes us American, our diversity.
Exactly. Don't get me wrong. I'm not thrilled with a few things Bush has done. But then again, I have no idea what it's like to be in his shoes. Think about it, guys: This man is the leader of our nation. Do you have any idea how much pressure that would be? So instead of trashing him, why don't you lift him up in prayer? (That is, if you're someone who believes in the power of prayer.)
Also, if you think your ideas are better than his why don't you find a way to share them with him? -

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. I can't believe this is even a forum thread. Reba has her beliefs, and that should be respected. She does not hate America. I'm a die-hard Reba fan, as well as a die-hard Democrat. (So please, do not diss Reba OR THE LIBERALS!)I may not like the president at all, but who Reba chooses to support and be friends with is completely her own business. I don't love her any less for it. It is a non-issue for me. It's not like Reba goes around saying, "You can't be a fan of mine if you don't love President Bush." Therefore, it is a non-issue for me. Why are we even debating politics on a Reba board to begin with? There will always be the "great divide" between conservatives and liberals. So we could argue about the current state of our country until we're blue in the face. Yet, I would much prefer to discuss Reba. NOT HER POLITICAL BELIEFS. Sure, we can talk about them. Yet, I don't want to debate them.
