re: #192 BeachDem

Then it really ramped up with “boot in the ass” Toby Keith and his fight with the Dixie Chicks and their shunning by the country music industry for daring to have an opinion.
(I always find it ironic that “Travelin’ Soldier,” about a Vietnam soldier, was their #1 hit before the shit hit the fan.) And it was Freepers who led the charge on the Dixie Chicks boycott

I’ve been saying for some time that the Right Wing Noise machine exists to foster willful stupidity, and hate in the US population.

I just realized that insanity can be added to that list. Keeping people fearful, angry, agitated and outraged 24/7 will literally destroy their minds in some cases.
