Music legend Pat Boone is ripping into the Dixie Chicks for withdrawing their apology for a previous attack on President Bush.

"I have four daughters, and I taught them to respect their elders, even if they weren't president of the United States," Boone told Fox News host Neil Cavuto today. "I think it's outrageous for any of these performers to be bashing our president the way they are."

At a London concert in 2003, Dixie Chicks singer Natalie Maines sparked controversy by stating, "Just so you know, we're ashamed that the president of the United States is from Texas."

<...>
"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."

Wow, that's what Bin Laden's plan was all along...to turn country musicians against Bush! And here i thought it had something to do with the U.S. presence in the Middle East and support for Israel. And it's at the top of Iran's list, too. Wow. Considering that neither of these two HAVE ANYTHING TO WITH THE IRAQ WAR, PAT!!!
