Natalie Maines to the President: “You’re a dumb f—.”

Posted by: Sister Toldjah on September 12, 2006 at 8:27 pm

Maines, infamous for comments she made at a Dixie Chicks concert in London in March 2003 where she stated, “Just so you know, we’re ashamed the president of the United States is from Texas” as well as the same gal who said back in June “I don’t understand the necessity for patriotism”, recently had these words to say about the President:

The international press won’t get their first look at the documentary Dixie Chicks: Shut Up and Sing until its gala premiere at the Toronto Film Festival tonight. But EW.com got an early look at the sure-to-be-controversial doc in Los Angeles and can attest that the film will continue to bring the (ex?) country trio more plaudits from progressives and further condemnation from conservatives. And if you think singer Natalie Maines had some harsh words for President Bush in public, wait till you hear what she had to say about him behind the scenes.

In one memorable scene, Maines watches news footage of the president being interviewed about the furor that followed the singer’s on-stage comment that she was ”ashamed the President of the United States is from Texas,” which resulted in the group being dropped from most radio stations, as well as protests and plummeting sales. ”The Dixie Chicks are free to speak their mind,” Bush told Tom Brokaw at the time, adding, ”They shouldn’t have their feelings hurt just because some people don’t want to buy their records when they speak out. You know, freedom is a two-way street.”

After watching this footage, Maines repeats the president’s comment about how the group shouldn’t have their ”feelings hurt,” incredulous, and then says, ”What a dumb f—.” She then looks into the camera, as if addressing Bush, and reiterates, ”You’re a dumb f—.”

Ever notice how she tends to make these disparaging comments about the Prez. when she’s NOT in the US? What’s the matter, Natalie? Too chick(s)en to say ‘em on your home turf?

And speaking of the Toronto Film Festival, where the Chicks documentary debuts tonight, “The Death of a President” was shown at the Toronto Film Festival a couple of days ago. Wonder if Natalie arrived early to get a front row seat?

      The Dixie Chicks are has beens with their original base. Before Natalie, there was a very sweet, talented gal named Laurie. Laurie was dumped by the two sisters who wanted to change from their very good Bluegrass/Western swing agenda to more of a pop group. Sadly, now with large mouth Maines, the Dixie Chicks not only abandoned their base audience, but ridicled it as well. What is wonderfully ironic is that Laurie Lynch married a rancher and they won a Texas lottery and are set for life. Meanwhile the Chicks struggle with a fickle teeny bopper type audience and are just another rock group.

      I’ve never considered myself the most astute observer of world affairs. But then I look to Natalie Maines and feel pretty good about myself because she’s a real dumb-f**k. Like many on her side of life, she has no real opinions, just trash talk. What a dumb-f**k.

      Dixie Chicks’ ticket sales must need a boost……

    4. NC Cop says:

      Hey Natalie!! How about this for a movie, it’s called “Death of a successful career“. You could star in it!!!

    5. Heck, she could write it, NC ;)

      Yup, beat me to it! b-)

      They’ve canceled several concert dates due to poor ticket sales, and attendance at their concerts in this country are way down. In the rest of the world, however, they are popular, such as they are, primarily because they are so anti-Bush. Their manager probably figures that letting them off the leash will endear them with the world market and make up at least in part for the loss of the US market.

      Man, that girl is as dumb as a box of rocks…

    8. Lorica says:

      Come on Greg, don’t insult the fossils on those rocks. There is a definate possibility that those fossils could still have more intellect that Natilie. – Lorica

    9. G Monster says:

      Lol Greg. You are insulting the box of rocks. She has cost her bandmembers a fortune. I would be pretty pissed off if I were them.

    10. Great White Rat says:

      Who is Natalie Maines and why should anyone care what this dimbulb says?

      TomR is right. I won’t even listen to a Chicks’ tune, much less buy anything they do, since Maines decided to prove how stupid she is. Who needs ‘em? I’d rather listen to Sara Evans or Lee Ann Womack anyway…

    11. Drewsmom says:

      Yeah, I used to listen to em on on occasional basis before Maines went to moonbat land and she seems to be sinking in their quick sand, she just can’t keep her pie hole shut, she is the epitomy of why Laura Inghram, the best, wrote her bestseller, “SHUT UP AND SING”. There are lots better country singers out there so let them keep thier fu*k#ing asses elsewere cuz their fan base is gone here. :((

    12. Lorica says:

      I love Sara Evans, even tho this new CD is abit to preoccupied with the idea of ‘love making’. When the chorus to the song Coal Mine says “ain’t gonna have nutin’ but the supper on” What is one to think. Restless was a fantastic CD. And I have that on my iPod. Along with “Born to Fly”. I love the song “Four Thirty”, I consider that my driving to Charlotte NC song. =))

      Has anyone been listening to the American Recordings by Johnny Cash?? God talk about soulful. I love listening to them, but you can just hear a man who is broken hearted and wanting to die in them. These were all made in the months before he died, and I do believe that he was just crushed when June died. He was such an American Treasure. – Lorica

      Wonder what they would look like as a band all in Burkas…lol

      Maines isn’t the only one who travels to other countries to bad mouth the president. I do believe we have had Gore and others travel to foriegn countries, even muslim coutries to bad mouth the US and the president.

      But I agree with ST, isn’t it funny how they only seem to do it off US soil.

      Someone revoke her passport while she is doing that in another country…wouldn’t it be funny when she tried to come back in to the US…

      I’m sorry ms maines, I can’t let you back into the US…

      maines: wtf?!?!?

    14. NC Cop says:

      Has anybody heard the song “If I Die before you wake” by Dustin Evans? Absolutely incredible song paying tribute to our military overseas. If you get a chance, check it out.

    15. Mad_Mike says:

      Hey Natalie – Susie told Jimmy to tell me to tell you that you’re a big fat doodie-head with cooties.

      What a sign of immaturity and intellectual bankruptcy. Why do so many lefties act like preschoolers who have been caught with their hands in the cookie jar?

      “I do believe we have had Gore and others travel to foriegn countries, even muslim coutries to bad mouth the US and the president.”

      Yes indeed, Sanity. Jimma in Germany for der Speigel, and a host of Hollywood putzes at the Toronto Film Festival. What does one call people like this? (Let’s not call them anything, let’s just ignore them. –Michael Palin)
