Joan Baez not allowed to perform at WRMC

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Folk singer and anti-war activist Joan Baez says she doesn't know why she was not allowed to perform for recovering soldiers recently at Walter Reed Army Medical Center as she planned.

In a letter to The Washington Post published Wednesday, she said rocker John Mellencamp had asked her to perform with him last Friday and that she accepted his invitation.

"I have always been an advocate for nonviolence and I have stood as firmly against the Iraq war as I did the Vietnam War 40 years ago," she wrote. "I realize now that I might have contributed to a better welcome home for those soldiers fresh from Vietnam. Maybe that's why I didn't hesitate to accept the invitation to sing for those returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. In the end, four days before the concert, I was not 'approved' by the Army to take part. Strange irony."

Baez, 66, told the Post in a telephone interview Tuesday that she was not told why she was left off the program by the Army. "There might have been one, there might have been 50 (soldiers) that thought I was a traitor," she told the paper.

In a statement, a Walter Reed spokesman said that leaving Baez out of the program was a matter of logistics.

"The John Mellencamp concert took several months of coordination between Hoffman Entertainment, Walter Reed, Department of the Army and Department of Defense," said spokesman Steve Sanderson in the statement.

"A final agreement/contract was prepared between Hoffman entertainment and the Defense Department laying out everything the performance would entail. However, two days prior to the live concert, Hoffman Entertainment suggested Ms. Joan Baez's possible performance coupled with an interview by Mr. Dan Rather to Walter Reed officials. These additional requirements would were not in the agreement/contract and would have necessitated a modification.

"Nevertheless, the patients and staff at Walter Reed thoroughly enjoyed the Mellencamp Concert and wish to thank him for his generosity."

Baez's manager, Mark Spector, told the Post that Mellencamp's management invited Baez to perform in March and handled all the arrangements. The Post said Mellencamp's manager, Randy Hoffman, did not return calls requesting comment and that Mellencamp's publicist said the singer was ill Tuesday and unavailable.

But Mellencamp earlier told RollingStone.com: "They didn't give me a reason why she couldn't come. We asked why and they said, 'She can't fit here, period.' "

I read a similar article on AOL where JB quoted a "cynical friend of hers" wondering why "they let the rats in but not you?"

I feel a lot safer knowing that these troops won't be exposed to a 64 year old folk singer singing about peace. We barely missed that iceberg, didn't we?

See. If I was in charge, I wouldn't deny her because of the whole speaking-out-against-war thing.

I would deny her because her music totally sucks.

oh. snap.

I don't recall giving you snapping privileges.

[danax6]

Sheesh, you can't say anything anymore these days. No wonder Stevelah is keeping her mouth shut about this.

Btw, Sarah, STFU, I love Joan Baez. But I was born two decades too late, so yeah. :wavey:

I did give you snapping privileges some time ago, correct?

so, snap in a Z formation girl. you deserve it.

oh...you went hardcore with the voodoo snap. that's some dark ****.

I'm skeered of you sugah.

[Sarah]

Can't..roll..eyes..hard..enough..

Douchebags. The both of you. Maybe one of you more so than the other, but still.

There are a lot of similar artists that I like, but.. her voice and songs do nothing for me. Boring, boring, lame.

I'd say a personal attack deserves more bad karma than stating the simple fact that Joan Baez sucks. So, that being the case, thanks a lot for bringing me down to your level. Insert unauthorized, unapologetic snap right HERE.

I never said you could SNAP! either....:cool:

Well, screw you too then. :wavey:

I'm not trying to be in your ridiculous little SNAP club. Snaps existed before you guys and they will outlast you. So your little snap rules totally do not apply to me. I do what I want. Snap snappity snap.

[JazmenFlowers]

Boring, boring, lame.
my sentiments exactly.

better luck next time. :wavey:

[Sarah]

better luck next time. :wavey:

Don't wave at me. I don't like you. You can go pick on somebody else for no reason. It's ****ing ridiculous, and I'm not going to play this idiotic game with you any longer. I'm sorry you need to boost your confidence in this pathetic little way. Find someone else. AND. Joan Baez still sucks.

[goldustsongbird]

wtf @ this thread

[foxyluva]

wtf @ this thread

Me to - these fools hating on Joan :shocked:

[Sarah]

wtf @ this thread

Well, you know, I made a simple statement in jest, and somebody just had to be an asshole about it. I accept that it's pathetic, and the ignore feature has been used accordingly. It's to the point around here that every thread turns into some stupid pissing contest.

Alas. The sun will shine tomorrow, and I will have bigger things to deal with than whether a some peons here like me or not.

[sparky]

One reason Joan is cool..."Diamonds and Rust."

And the brutal Judas Priest cover of said brilliant song.

She need never have done anything before or since.

The song is that good.

Well, I can never tell if you're being sarcastic or if you're truly a d-bag.

That was just in jest, of course.

The title 'douchebag' is reserved for other people though, and no way am I lame enough to belong to that club, but thanks anyway.

Holy moly girl you are hilarious! Btw, Andre cant snap either because the bandaids on his digits prevent him. I think his baskets poked him. Lets ask him :D

[irishgrl]

See. There you go. Karen Carpenter had the voice. Dusty Springfield had the voice. Joan Baez does not, never did, never will.

Karen and Dusty could sing the alphabet and it would sound like gold. http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/heart.gif

the sun will shine tomorrow? wtf? is this Gone with the Wind all of a sudden? "aftah all...tomorrah is anotha dayah"

girl please. get off your high horse. you're so damn defensive. can you take a joke at your expense? obviously not. my whole point was that you aren't Carrie or Paula or Deanna or Lisa or several others that are in the S.N.A.P. and therefore, you aren't allowed to snap...especially at this article. but of course you couldn't know that, right? I could give a **** about Joan Baez's music. it's the point of the article that I think is important.

if you'll take the time to read back over my last, oh say 4,000 posts or so you'll see that I am no asshole nor pathetic and am certainly no peon. but then, I'm on ignore so I guess you won't see this either. you don't like me? lol. awww. I'm crushed. I can't help but think of that episode of Golden Girls where Rose refuses to accept the fact that someone doesn't like her so she goes out of her way to make him like her. don't worry...I won't do that. but just so we're clear, I don't like you either. na na na boo boo.


being on someone's ignore feature? $100
being crushed that Potho Sarah doesn't like me? $500
being called a douchebag for the first time? priceless

wow. all the usual suspects. :rolleyes:

Jazzy of course is ABOVE such mundane concerns as Ledge RULES and POLICIES, not being a peon and all....

fortunately, I did NOT get the "Jazzy is the final arbiter of snap-worthiness" memo. (snap snap snap and for good measure SNAP.)

I do however think it sucks that Joan couldnt perform.

that's exactly the point. so, why :rolleyes: ? or maybe your Irish intellect has clouded your ability to see that somehow? :shrug:

actually, I'm not above either. which rules and/or policies have I bent and/or broken? but you are right, last time I checked, I wasn't a peon. wait, let me look again.


nope.
fortunately, I did NOT get the "Jazzy is the final arbiter of snap-worthiness" memo. (snap snap snap and for good measure SNAP.)
yeah, you didn't get it and I am very sorry about that. you should've been the first to get it actually. especially considering how lame the last part of that was. no one in S.N.A.P. would say 'snap snap snap and for good measure SNAP.'
I do however think it sucks that Joan couldnt perform.
see? even an irishgrl can see the jest.
Nice. Just Nice.
I thought so. glad you enjoyed it.

[JazmenFlowers]

Nice. Just Nice.
by the way, before that part gets blown out of proportion, Sarah considers herself a pothead (i.e. potho) as evidenced by her avatar. I was mearly stating the obvious.

ugh. thanks for quoting, now i get to see what queen douchebag said. don't let people get all hateful on you just for trying to stand up to them for my sake. this chick isn't the first asshat i've ever had to deal with online. probably won't be the last either.

and for the record, i wouldn't consider her a douchebag this wasn't the second thread she's picked on me for no reason. i don't even know this girl and she's trying to act all diva on me. screw that. i walk past 2,000 jerks every day on the sidewalk.. i don't need it here. i should be off finding something more interesting to read than the mindless spewing of a hateful little twit. but no, i feel like i have to stick up for myself or face the hell that might come to someone who is considered a weenie. i'm not a weenie, and i don't let people talk to me like i am.

and y'know, i'm not really on a high horse. i just have a sense of self pride and it did take a long time to achieve that. i don't need to try to make someone else feel like crap just so i can elbow my friends in the ribs and be like, "omg, i'm so cool. you can totally be in my club if you pick on somebody too!" maybe a long time ago, but unfortunately for you, i'm over that idiotic phase. so just remember that i didn't start this little tiff. you did. personlly, i would be most pleased if you would add me to your ignore list and never mention my name again. you're dead to me now, so me being dead to you will suit me just fine.

how can you be dead to me...you never really existed. :shrug:

I seriously was not going to comment anymore in this thread because apparently my whole point is being missed, but I couldn't help but say:

I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadow. if I failed, if I succeed, at least I live as I believe.

or maybe you'd prefer (depending on your age):

there's a hero. if you look inside your heart. you don't have to be afraid of what you are.

also, I don't remember ever "picking" on you, really. if you perceive that I did at some point, I do apologize. maybe my cynicism was misconstrued or I faultered in an ability to joke according to what you are accustomed.

there is one little thing that's wrong with your post...just a minor detail that I find amusing. but, I'll leave that scavenger hunt up to you. besides, you're not reading this anyway...or are you? :lol:

[danax6]

you're dead to me nowHe's dead to you because he joked about you not having snapping priviliges? You really are from a planet south of Krypton. I seriously don't get you, what is the big deal here? :shrug:

ETA: I just realized that the fact that I have toned down the level of sarcasm should be proof enough that I am really trying to understand this.

[Sarah]

He's dead to you because he joked about you not having snapping priviliges? You really are from a planet south of Krypton. I seriously don't get you, what is the big deal here? :shrug:

I seriously don't get what you don't get. I clearly stated that this is not the first time that this particular poster has quoted and commented to me/about me in a rude way. at least, what i take as being rude, considering i've never conversed with him/her (see, i don't even KNOW this person) ever before, other than responding and defending myself AFTER the fact. i don't care about a difference of opinion on the thread's topic.. it's the snippy, hateful comment that had nothing to do with the topic. a post made for the sole purpose of pestering is terribly unbecoming. and it's making me bring out my snippy hateful side (which is also terribly unbecoming). i much prefer to have fun and get along.

if you can't take it that people get irritated when you "pick" on them, don't pick on people you don't know. save that stuff for friends who "get it". some of us South Kryptonians remember when others have been rude, and therefore, other comments they make are thrown into that category as well, especially when they don't seem like a joke and have no indication that there is a joke there. oh, wait, that is until the rest of the gang shows up to pat 'em on the back and tell 'em what a swell job they did telling that other girl how it is. make your little jokes at someone else's expense. it's just not funny to me.

I believe this is the "previous incident" - which goes towards my ignorace too because I was unaware that I was taunting Sarah in this thread.

http://ledge.fleetwoodmac.net/showpost.php?p=681037&postcount=150

hardly a "let's pick on Sarah" festival.

I just realized how much I love using quotes. Stevie loves minor chords and I love quotes. :lol:

[Sarah]

Okay, blame it on my ignorance then, because I wasn't aware of any previous 'incidents'. I seriously thought it was all in jest.

I was really just kind of shocked that someone would be like that to someone they don't know. Shock leads to becoming defensive. I am exceptionally defensive. I've grown up always having to watch my back and take care of myself. It really isn't me thinking that I deserve to be treated like I'm just sooooo ****ing awesome or special or anything like that. I simply get irritated as hell when I feel picked on and automatically go into getthefkoffofme mode.

I think it'd be best if we just call it over. It really isn't that big of a deal. Jazmen doesn't like me for whatever reason that Jazmen decided upon, and that's fine. I do feel bad about some namecalling, but that's how the game works online.

There's no reason to draw it out forever, and I really don't have much left to say on the topic. I just got back online this afternoon and wanted to reply again to clear it up. I have nothing against you in any way. You or your snap club, whatever the heck that is.

All snaps created by this poster are entirely unaffiliated. I'm an independent snapper.

[ryan8472]

Hey guys, guess what, you're all idiots. So there. :)

Now back to discussing the Joanmanity.

[BlackWidow]

sry2say Joan Baez does suck. I'm pretty open when it comes to music. But Joan Baez? No thx. ****ing hippies.

there's a huge HUGE difference between someone calling themselves a pothead and you calling them a potHO. no way you can excuse that Jazzy dear. And Sarah is right, you DID jump on her. Unfortunately for you, she's hilariously on TARGET regarding you and your nappy club. do you have secret handshakes and code words too? probably. how quaint.

Back to Joan... personally I think it's complete horse**** that they will not allow someone that has spoken out against the war to come help ease the suffering of those that were subjected to it. One doesn't have anything to do with the other. Long live freedom of speech. :rolleyes:

[BlackWidow]

I hear Joan singing to you all right now!!!

Well come on. Anyone with a shred of sense in their head would realize that nobody was jumping all over Sarah when all of this started. You'd think having been on The Ledge long enough, people would grow accustomed to the snark and sarcasm. :rolleyes:

Thank you. It's getting to be predictable now.

Back to Joan... personally I think it's complete horse**** that they will not allow someone that has spoken out against the war to come help ease the suffering of those that were subjected to it. One doesn't have anything to do with the other. Long live freedom of speech. :rolleyes:

PREACH IT!!! ITA!!!:wavey:

[Sarah]

Well come on. Anyone with a shred of sense in their head would realize that nobody was jumping all over Sarah when all of this started. You'd think having been on The Ledge long enough, people would grow accustomed to the snark and sarcasm. :rolleyes:

You people are making my ears burn. Knock it offffffffff. This is so this morning. Kill it already, it's pointless.

I know! The fact that she's willing to do this for the troops should be proof enough that she "fits". Hell, if they're going to let one 50+ year old hippie chick in to see the troops, then ALL the hippie chicks should be allowed in.

I suppose if I had said "Preach it", or ITA like all of you do, then you'd hardly be able to point fingers, because my coming in and applauding Sarah or agreeing with her is no different than all of you folks coming in with your ITA'S and Preach it's!
Double standard anyone? Sarah felt Jazzy's snark was uncalled for. She has the right to say so..............and I just happened to think she was funny.
You can call it what you want but its still a double standard.

However, I do think what happened to Joan was wrong. She's an icon and for all we know, many a soldier who came back broken may have a different view of Peace.

exactly. I guess since Stevie, as V said, keeps her mouth shut, she's ok. and I understand why she does that and I'm fine with it, but damn. it's not that JB is protesting the war...she wants to entertain as much as preach nonviolence, not anti-Bush or something.

Oh the Cronymanity!

[Rickypt]

See. If I was in charge, I wouldn't deny her because of the whole speaking-out-against-war thing.

I would deny her because her music totally sucks.

oh. snap.

:laugh:

Please....you celebrate your own supposed wittiness and then you are surprised you got dissed on this thread? :laugh:

Joan Baez is great....you are the lame one. :lol:

She is a very serious pit hair offender. Quite unfortunate... she's a pretty girl.

[Rickypt]

I make a post a day after the thread started and I'm told that I'm late. :lol: Guess I should quit my job so that I can post according to Sarah-time.

[Sarah]

Hey. Whatever. You're beating an obviously dead horse - just to be a jerk. That's fine. Just don't go breaking your arm while you're patting yourself on the back.

Shark week, Sarah?

Shark week, Sarah?

Nope. Joan Baez Appreciation Week.

[irishgrl]

c'mon, The night they Drove Old Dixie Down was a classic :D

I happen to like her but even if I didnt, I think its a dirty rotten shame that she's being banned because of a 40yr label she got stuck with that she never deserved in the first place (anti-patriotic etc)

[irishgrl]

Seriously. This is out of control.

Oh the hairmanity :wavey:

[Kris10723]

Well, I'm only 20 and I love Joan Baez. I'm also a huge fan of Joni Mitchell. Probably more Joni than Joan, but either way they're amazing women.

On another note, Jazzy, I love your avatar. Is there any way that you could post the picture. I know this isn't the Stevie thread, but I love that picture. I've never seen it before. Thanks a bunch!

[Sarah]

Oh the hairmanity :wavey:

:wavey: Does she shave her legs or not? That's a deal breaker.


The only Joan I like is a Jett. \m/.

Well, you know, I made a simple statement in jest, and somebody just had to be an asshole about it. I accept that it's pathetic, and the ignore feature has been used accordingly. It's to the point around here that every thread turns into some stupid pissing contest.

Alas. The sun will shine tomorrow, and I will have bigger things to deal with than whether a some peons here like me or not.

I don't get all the snap thing ( and honestly I'm not very interested in it)... but I like Joan Baez, and in concert she's very good.:thumbsup:

You are seriously paranoid. :lol:

I just read this thread about two hours ago. You attacked a fine artist by calling her lame and I responded. If you can't handle it, then don't make strong opinions. :shrug: You can't decide the timeframe in which people are allowed to respond to you.

Lovely. You know me now enough to judge my mental state.

The argument wasn't about a difference of opinion. It would have been way more respectable if it had been. This isn't a Joan Baez fan community. I have no obligation to like her music. I didn't say **** about her as a person, what she believes or stands for or any **** like that. Jesus Christ.

[irishgrl]

That's cute. How many beers did it take you to come up with that?
why none. Perhaps you need a crutch?

[mikeschmike]

[michelle2677]

so I just read this entire thread. that's 20 minutes of my life I'll never get back.


on topic-i've never heard one song by JB (that I know of) so I can't comment on her music. But the fact she was not able to perform is shocking. what's the world coming to?

[danax6]

This thread so amuses me. Never in a million years did I think Sarah would ever team up with the likes of Mary. I'm glad to see new friends are being made. I guess that makes it a little less lonely on that planet south of Krypton.

Desperate times do call for desperate measures. This time I totally enjoy being proven wrong.

Very unnecessary. I don't "team up" with anybody; I can think and speak for myself. I'm sorry it shocks you that someone could support my initial opinion. I'm assuming that Mary is irishgrl. She and I have clashed before, but realize that it's okay to be civil about it. I made an attempt to be civil with you, and here you're trying to start talking **** again. As for being a little less lonely on the planet south of Krypton - I don't know about that. I've always been a loner, and I always will be. By choice. It's apparently better for me in orbit out here than in whatever circle jerk organization it is you guys have going on in the good old Chit Chat ledge. Whatever argument it is that irish and mike have between them.. I don't even know what that's all about. It's not mine to chime in on, so don't try to act like I'm a part of it.

[mikeschmike]

disgusting.

[danax6]

Very unnecessary. I don't "team up" with anybody; I can think and speak for myself. I'm sorry it shocks you that someone could support my initial opinion.Don't get me wrong, I am not shocked at all by that. Or, I should say, I'm not shocked at all that Mary is the one doing the supporting. As I said before, she's rather predictable. She doesn't even agree with your original post, which is that Joan Baez sucks, which is really what this is about. She's only in it for the sake of being in it. That's where the surprise comes in, the fact that you're not telling her to stuff it.

[Sarah]

That's where the surprise comes in, the fact that you're not telling her to stuff it.

Okay, this gives me the perfect opportunity to clarify why I was originally irritated with Jazmen's comment to me. I don't like being told what to say or what not to say. I don't make a habit of telling other people to cram it, either.

I'm not around to read all the little posts and back-and-forth that it takes to see how individual members of this group work. I don't know your personalities well. All I have to go on is the text written in response to me. And I was told that I couldn't snap, because some people whom I don't even know have formed some sort of club. "WELL. Exxxcuse the hell out of me." (eyeroll eyeroll eyeroll pissed off pissed off pissed off)

If this really was about Joan Baez sucking or not sucking, then that statement should have been made instead of just trying to discount my opinion because I'm not in an imaginary snap club.

See what I'm sayin'?

[Rickypt]

I don't like being told what to say or what not to say.

And I don't like haven't my comments written off as too late, that I'm part of some supposed group of friends ganging up on you, that I am beating a dead horse by posting my opinion, and that I'm posting just to pat myself on the back. :wavey:

[JazmenFlowers]

bwahahahaha. :laugh:

the fact that you still think there actually is a S.N.A.P. is cracking my **** up. you still don't get it, do you? lol.

Exxxcuse the hell out of me." (eyeroll eyeroll eyeroll pissed off pissed off pissed off) That is still something between you and Jaz. You do realize that there is not actually a club right? That it was totally, completely all in jest? I hate repeating myself, but I still think this is all just a silly thing that got out of hand due to miscommunication. That's the danger of the internet, you can never be completely sure about people's intentions.


If this really was about Joan Baez sucking or not sucking, then that statement should have been made instead of just trying to discount my opinion because I'm not in an imaginary snap club. In my defense, that's what I originally did.


See what I'm sayin'?Yep.

[Sarah]

I hate repeating myself, but I still think this is all just a silly thing that got out of hand due to miscommunication. That's the danger of the internet, you can never be completely sure about people's intentions.

See, how would I have any idea that there isn't a club? I just said that I don't keep up with the conversations several of you have with each other on a day to day basis. To you, it's completely obvious because you obviously know Jazmen's sense of humor or whatever, but like you just said - and truthfully so - you can't be sure about someone's intentions. I don't know him, so I took a smart-ass comment for a smart-ass comment. I suppose there are two types of smart-ass comments... those not intended to be hateful and those that are. I thought it sounded hateful, especially when someone else comments to back him up on some sort of club. (Even if you did have a snap club, I'd still do unauthorized snapping. ;) )

Like lots of other people, I am a pretty decent person that can be a major ****ing asshole when I want to be. I can hold grudges, or I can brush **** off instantaneously as if it never happened. After blah-blah-blahing about it with you guys for a few posts, I decided to ignore the person that had - in my opinion - started in on me and wanted to let it go there. All this other stuff.. widow vs. foxy, mike vs. irish.. that looks pre-existing. I guess there just isn't anywhere else for them to do it than an already ****ed up thread. :laugh:

In your defense, you don't have to defend yourself. I don't have a problem with you. :)

[danax6]

Okay, the only thing I do regret now is that I won't be able to listen to Joan Baez for a while without thinking about this stupid thread. Damnit.

[skcin]

being on someone's ignore feature? $100
being crushed that Potho Sarah doesn't like me? $500
being called a douchebag for the first time? priceless

Nice. Just Nice.

Just wanted to point out that she called Jaz a douchebag first & nobody complained about that. He's not allowed to call her a name back? :shrug: Seems like you're needling some people about what they say, but not others.

This thread was funny. I'm sorry that I didn't care enough about Joan Baez to bother opening it the other day. :laugh: And she should be able to play, it's not like she sings songs supporting Al Qaida.

[Sugar]

I'm sorry that I didn't care enough about Joan Baez to bother opening it the other day.

The fact that there were seven pages about Joan Baez should have been enough to make you wonder.

[irishgrl]

Don't get me wrong, I am not shocked at all by that. Or, I should say, I'm not shocked at all that Mary is the one doing the supporting. As I said before, she's rather predictable.

who made you the Post Police? Why am I not allowed to agree with someone? Or notice snark? You all do it, and I might add you're all very predictable when it comes to bashing me. I dont recall addressing you so why you think YOU have the right to go around telling ME I shouldnt be posting is a mystery...or that I cant do what you all do. What a hypocrite.
Perhaps YOU should stuff it. You've brought over your Thing 2 mentality from the other board and basically patrolled each thread Ive posted in looking for an opportunity to be a bitch.

All I did here was say that I found Sarah to be hilarious, even though I didnt agree with her opinion about Joan. I didnt come here to start anything, in fact, I wasnt the one who did. The fact that you are so eager to blame ME shows me just how totally biased you are. Just because YOU hate me doesnt mean everyone else has to.

[danax6]

who made you the Post Police? Ooh, that'd be a great job.

Why am I not allowed to agree with someone? Or notice snark?Oh, give up the charade already. Don't insult my intelligence.

...or that I cant do what you all do. What a hypocrite.What exactly is it that we, or I, do? I discuss things, I throw in the occasional sarcastic remark, but I don't remember ever agreeing with someone because they happen to live on the same planet that I do. I do have a mind of my own, thank you very much. There have been many times I've disagreed with someone, and that includes everyone from this board, people I like and people I don't like. Go back, take notes, you'll see I'm right.


Perhaps YOU should stuff it. You've brought over your Thing 2 mentality from the other board and basically patrolled each thread Ive posted in looking for an opportunity to be a bitch. This implies that I don't have better things to do with my time. You flatter yourself too much.

Pleez. what a joke. You obviously LIVE to haunt the threads I post in, just so you can impress maybe 3 people with your "intelligence" Whatever.Okay, wait, let me go back and see who jumped in on this thread... check... check... double check... that's right, you again.

But you're right Mary, I LIVE to haunt you. You're all I think about. You're the first thing that enters my mind when I wake up in the morning, and the last thing before I fall asleep. You'll never get away from the sound of my voice. You ARE my Silver Springs. Le sigh.

[irishgrl]

I guess it wouldn't be an issue if weren't the 520320114100525630259542154415475547567521027579205878896th time that you just HAD to jump in and stir the pot. Which was none of your business to begin with.

Same old same old. Predictable. Laughable. Ridiculous. Thread ruining.

Any and all of the above apply.
fyi, my "jumping in" is no different than any OTHER Ledgie "jumping in" There are plenty of posters on this board who engage in snark. You could say the same thing to them but you dont. Why? I dont know....

My coming in this thread is no different than Jazzy coming in or Paula or Vanessa or Carrie or Michelle or Lisa. Give me a break. You are free to use the ignore feature if I bother you, but Im just as able to speak my mind as any of them. Deal with it.

Oh and Vanessa? I didnt Imply anything. Im flat out stating it.

Again Vanessa, if the shoe fits. Protest all you want but the fact remains, if I post in a thread, sure as death and taxes you'll soon show up to carp at me or crow if anyone else does. Tsk. perhaps you DONT have anything better to do.

Just days before Joan Baez was scheduled to perform at Walter Reed Hospital for recovering soldiers, she was told she was "not approved" by the army to take part in the program. Over the long span of her career, Joan Baez has been an outspoken advocate for peace, an activist and a concerned patriot of our country. She strongly believes in the theory of non-violence and she spoke out against the war in Iraq, like millions of others in this country and around the world.
Does freedom of speech and thought exist in the United States anymore? Or does everyone who disagrees with this administration and their policies get the ax?
These are just a few of the fallen men and women that quit, were fired or forced to retire from their positions in the Bush Administration due to the fact that they were critical of the failed policies, poor decision-making or false information that we have endured from our current president and his cronies.

Richard Clark, Fmr. Chief Adviser on Terrorism (quit)
Paul O'Neil, Fmr. Secretary of the Treasury (fired)
Lawrence Lindsey, Bush's Top Economic Advisor (fired)
Anthony Zinni, Special envoy to the Middle East (failed to be reappointed)
General Eric Shinseki, US Army's Chief of Staff (forced to retire)
Joanne Wilson, Commissioner of the Department of Education's Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA) (quit)
Teresa Chambers, U.S. Park Police Chief (fired)
Andrew Eller, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (fired)
Eric Schaeffer, Director of the Office of Regulatory Enforcement at the Environmental Protection Agency (resigned)
