Dixie Chicks withdraw apology to Bush

Mr.Miller- I am certain you realize that the main focus of these threads in the last couple of days has been on the usage of the word "shitting" in proper writing.

You do know, of course, that one of the inventors of the Water Closet which utilized plumbing was named "Crapper" and, of course, the material which is placed in the toilet through the act of human defecation was called "crap". But this has nothing to do with the word "craps' in gaming. Indeed, "craps" is a variation on the word "crabs"-double ace(lowest throw at hazard)from 18th century English slang.

This entire thread has stemmed from the usage of the word, "shitting" in a post.
I will repeat and stand by my point. The usage of the word "shitting" ( unless done in an obviously scholarly report) can only mean that the writer is bereft of any type of vocabulary which exceeds the fifth grade level. Teachers on the elementary school level have reported the frequent use of scatologial terms among their 10 and 11 year old boys who appear to be fascinated by anything to do with scatology and/or flatulence.
In some circles, the circles which contain the "rap"morons, the usage of scatology only reinforces the conclusion that most of those persons are irremediable morons.

I am of the opinion that anyone who must utilize the verbiage "Shitting" in his or her posts may have a familial problem akin to mental retardation.

Did I detect a bit of fecal matter in that post of your's, Bernard? Little fragile-X in the family?

I don't think you detected any fecal matter in, as you say, "that post of your's,"(sic)

Drew Dad- I must respectfully point out that you really must watch your usage of aposthropes.

Which "ass" are you talking about, Mr. roger? You are not clear.

As you are the primary supplier of excrement around here, Bernie, I rather suspect that we all know the answer.

I am very much afraid that you are in error, Sir. I am certain that honor must go to the"Blue Veined Throbber" who,utilizing all of his class and writing ability first introduced the word, "Shitting" into this thread.

Bernard, I know by now that your anal expulsive, but do try to keep the excrement to a minimum.

As you, BernardR, must watch those dratted little aitches.....unless aposthropes are a form of lisping apostles?

I miss the distinction-Ms. Dlowan--Perhaps you can enlighten me.\

I was under the impression, after your fine outline of the scatology of "shitting" that any word listed in the dictionary can be utilized by serious writers.

Perhaps we should change Nigger and Fag to

Niggard and Male Fellatio,

You are aware, of course, that a man who made a speech using the word Niggard lost his job because of his lack of "sensitivity"

You see, Dlowan, it takes all kinds!!

No, no Bernie...keep trying, and surely SOME light must dawn? You know...like the monkeys and the typewriters and the Shakespeare thing.....though why monkeys would be any more likely to type in English than any other language escapes me....

Oh, also, I believe I outlined crap not ****.

I have just received a note from a friend who is, unfortunately, suffering from Crohn's disease. He is furious at the repeated use of "shitting" on the Internet because it brings all the innocent sufferers of his disease into disrepute.

Those who sneer at his discomfiture are invited by him to replicate it with repeated dosages of emetics.

He says that they would never write the word--"Shitting" again!!

Lol! Truly our Grotto is becoming a comic writer!

You have forgotten those with irritable bowel syndrome, and other maladies.

And, we must not forget to honor the original poster of the word "shitting" on this thread. The incredibly gifted writer,BlueVeinedThrobber, not only refers to "Shitting" on this thread, but he gratuitiously uses a word which many women feel is a massive insult to women---

Ah Finn honey, I don't think you love me.

Here is the position I advance. Tony Snow has spoken about your daddy bush like he was ****.... which he is as far as I'm concerned and then takes a job as his chief defender and mouthpiece. I smell pussy. Sell out pussy. There are many who will put it more graciously, but none more accurately.

If you don't like it or me that changes nothing although it does crush my self esteem and make me want to cry. Have a nice day sweetie.

Yes, BlueVeinedThrobber is a classy guy!!!!

Thank you for the recognition. I can sense that it's sincere and heartfelt.
I am also confident that Bernard, an intelligent and classy guy himself, has surmised that in order to **** me, he would first have to eat me. Very Happy

Dixie Chicks tour struggling in several markets

NASHVILLE (Billboard) - Initial ticket sales for the Dixie Chicks' upcoming tour are far below expectations and several dates will likely be canceled or postoned.

Ticket counts for the 20-plus arena shows that went on sale last weekend were averaging 5,000-6,000 per show in major markets and less in secondaries, according to sources contacted by Billboard. Venue capacities on the tour generally top 15,000.

In contrast, the band's new album, "Taking the Long Way," sold 526,000 units in its first week, according to Nielsen Soundscan, the third-largest sales week of 2006. The album logged a second week in the period ended June 4, according to sales data issued Wednesday.

Despite those numbers, early ticket sales are clearly not meeting projections. The plug was pulled on public on-sales for shows in Indianapolis (August 23), Oklahoma City (September 26), Memphis (September 27) and Houston (September 30) because of tepid pre-sales in a national promotion with Target stores.

mysteryman, haha. "Dixie Chicks tour struggling in several markets". Yes and building in other markets. Still topping the charts this week. And their integrity is intact which you Bushies cannot say.

They admitted during the Larry King interview that they were booed in NYC, but said it "didn't hurt their feelings".

Then, in the next breath, one said that they made the snarky remarks about Reba becaused she "bashed" them over the infamous remark about the president.

'Cause they used to 'like' Reba. LOL.

Poor Reba. It aint easy defending Bushie these days. Most Americans now say Bushie deliberately lied us into war. A majority think his domestic spying is impeachable. 70% agree with the Chicks in their disapproval of Bushie. Maybe Reba is one of those who saw the light. I hope she is or does. Those still siding with Bushie on almost any issue are in a constantly shrinking minority. And there are more revelations, indictments and resignations on the way. Not many GOP candidates want Bushie campaining for him in this election. And many of them are under investigation themselves. They may lose Reba. Hell they may lose Lee Greenwood.

I dont know many libs who take their politics on the radio. I love Randy Rhodes but much prefer listening to music while I scout out info at Raw Story or the Huffington Post or antiwar.com etc. A liberal version of Rush Limbaugh just aint that important.
