In reply to the discussion: Natalie Maines On George Bush Slam: 'I Was Right From The Beginning' [View all]AnotherMcIntosh
(11,064 posts)33. No. Absolutely not. Some who told us to shut up then are now telling us to STFU.
For some of us, it didn't work then and it's not working now.
Natalie Maines supported Obama in 2008 as a great many of us did. There is nothing to indicate that she favors letting war criminals go free, giving hundres of billions of dollars to banksters (including those in foreign countries), keeping GITMO open, continuing with endless wars and occupation in the Middle-East, shipping and maintaining jobs in foreign countries.
There's not even any indication that she favors cutting Social Security.
So, "The same people who told us to "shut up", are the same ones ..."?
Not even close. And no, we won't shut up.

OP
K&R, the problem though is that the right doesn't like 'being right', they like 'feeling right'

If I was a politician, I'd more afraid of one Natalie Maines than a thousand armed Ted Nugents.
