1. Surprised they didn't get the Oak Ridge Boys and the Gaither Trio while
they were at it.

2. I used to like the Gatlin Brothers...not anymore.
I just won't be able to have any fun anymore. All my favorite C&W singers are Rethugs.

4. Are they the ones with the long beards?
Or are they the ones who sang "Countin' Flowers on the Wall"? I really liked that song.

Weren't they famous in the sixties?

6. Long beards?
ZZ Top? Nah, probably Oak Ridge Boys.
"Flowers on the Wall"? Probably the Statler Bros. is who you're thinking about.

11. Yeah, I know.
I've been familiar with Larry Gatlin and his brothers for a long time, but I can't name a single tune of theirs.

14. "All the Gold in California" and I really like the Gatlin Bros
although I have never purchased one of their CD's. I just don't buy that many CD's, but if I wanted one I would buy it - don't believe in boycotting just because of someone's political beliefs. They have a right to their opinion just like I do.

16. I agree
Boycotting for political beliefs is what the other side does. Art (and music) should stand on it's own regardless of the artist's beliefs.

12. You can relax it was the "Statler Bros" who sang
"Countin' Flowers On The Wall". One of my Faves, too!

I wonder who they like for Prez?

17. Larry Gatlin is one of Bush's old COKE buddies. Gatlin was a real piece of
work when he was hanging alot in NYC in the late 70s and early 80s. He was a complete coke pig who was well known for his slide into "experimental" sex with other men.

21. LOL...The Boss vs. washed up country music/gospel stars?
HA! There is a comparable match. Its like comparing Creme Brulee to Jello. Why not just get Mr. Jingoism T. Patriot himself, Charlie Daniels. I am sure he is having a wet dream about kissing His Chimpiness's ring.

22. You know the old joke??? Will Rogers never met Larry Gatlin.
These guys are hacks and has-beens. Larry Gatlin has been pissing people off in the music industry for years. It's a perfect match: and idiot and an asshole.

23. Did negotiations with...
Wayne Newton break down? I understand Bush* is enamored with his music, especially 'Donkeyshit' 'Danke shein'.
