Stupid Evil Bastard: Pat Boone is upset with The Dixie Chicks.

Pat Boone is upset with The Dixie Chicks.

Washed up 50’s singer Pat Boone is apparently not happy with The Dixie Chicks:

“If I were the president of Iran, if I were Osama bin Laden or any of the terrorist organizers and I could have my wish list totally,” Boone said, “I couldn’t ask for anything better than for America’s entertainers to bash their president, denigrate him, make him seem like an idiot and a self-serving fool, and then have the media go along with it and promote it like crazy and try to undermine the whole war effort.”

He continued, “We are at war, and you don’t tell even a quarterback in a football game that he’s nuts and you don’t respect him. You try to pull for a win, and that’s what we should be trying to do. ... You can disagree. You can express your disagreement, but don’t attack the man who is your elected leader and say he’s not owed any respect at all.”

I suppose there’s still a segment of the population out there that still gives a shit what Pat Boone thinks, but I think he’s as big an idiot as the President is for trivializing war by comparing it to a football game. Shut up, Pat, you’re a schmuck.

Obviously, Les is the fucked-upped one around here. Why don’t you invite an illegal alien out to lunch numbnuts?

Well that was in context!

Perhaps Pat should do some 80’s new wave covers to revive his career. He didn’t do so bad with his Metal covers. “PAT BOONE - TAINTED LOVE”

Yep, them illegal aliens are the most evil thing in the world aren’t they? Trying to feed their family is such a horrible crime. Let’s kill ‘em all!

Gotta love it when half wits decide to toss out random comments that don’t appear to have anything to do with the topic at hand.

But the lunch with an illegal alien idea sounds like a good one. They’d probably appreciate it.

Why do I suspect that Pat wouldn’t be singing the same song if Clinton were president?

You know, Pat’s football analogy is interesting. When a quarterback starts getting into trouble during the game, he’s usually pulled for the second string.

Also, most if not all professional quarterbacks get their plays from the sidelines. I wonder who Bush is getting his “plays” from?

Side note: Man Les, you have been getting a lot of nutjobs on here lately. What’s up with that? You been poking around the right-wing sites again stirring up trouble?

I’m still pondering the visuals of Pat Boone as the Shah of Iran...That would be a hoot.

Maybe, if they ever make another sequel to The Cannonball Run series…

I wouldn’t mind them so much if they didn’t beam their meals up to their flying saucers…

First of all, Pat Boone rocks. He was the only man providing competition for Elvis in the 50s and he is a legendary multi-media star.

The rest of what I’ve said as it pertains to Pat Boone and the Dixie Chicks are contained in these tunes:

I just found this from Jose – one of the thousands of much more exciting artists and dare I say interesting, than the bland, Patricia Boone.
A different version of My Sweet Lord – sorry about the picture quality Sadie.

I’ve discovered that it all boils down to brain wiring: your brain is wired to worship magic or it isn’t, either it’s wired to utilize logic or it isn’t, either it’s analytical of myths or it isn’t.

What is this Yank obsession with that bloody redneck. You gave us the Rat Pack- cooler than a penguin’s testicles- yet we still suffer C&W and its piss awful derivatives.

This comment confirms Bruce’s (aka Dr. BLT) trollery.

Well don’t look at me. Elvis had his moments in the 1950s, but by the time the ‘60s rolled around he was a professional asshole. I mean, look at the way he treated the Beatles--bad form, Mr. King.

Now, now, Sadie- I must take exception. Just because someone exhibits abysmally bad taste doesn’t necessarily mean they’re a troll. True, most trolls have bad taste. But remember: correlation is not always causation. BLT’s trollery, or lack of such, might well be completely unrelated to his bizarre “musical” preferences.

Fair enough, Zilch. You ought to peruse the Sadly, No archives, though, and get a load of the “songs"/poems Dr. BLT has authored in his comments.

On second thought, don’t.

Comparing Elvis (or more appropriate, the Million Dollar Quartet: Elvis, Jerry Lee, Johnny Cash & Carl Perkins) with the Rat Pack is a bit unfair. Sinatra and crew were the end product of their musical style, a finely polished evolution of a sound that had been around for decades. The Million Dollar Quartet were something new, the beginning of their particular evolutionary ladder, and everybody from the Beatles to whoever’s on the pop/rock charts this week owe an evolutionary debt to Elvis and his crew.

Sadie: Well don’t look at me. Elvis had his moments in the 1950s, but by the time the ‘60s rolled around he was a professional asshole. I mean, look at the way he treated the Beatles--bad form, Mr. King.

Can’t argue with that, really, but I try to keep my opinion of a celebrity’s personailty or behavior seperate from my opinion of their artistic work. Still, most of Elvis’ worthwhile material was produced in the fifties and maybe Sam Phillips at Sun Records had a lot more to do with the creation of rockabilly (and its eventual evolution into rock and roll) than Elvis did.
