lpla77at 6-17-2009
I have to agree...
Red Carpet?!...What a bunch of slobs!I have never seen a worst dressed gang in my entire life!...can you imagine Dolly,Porter, Loretta, Conway, Tammy. George Jones, Johnny Cash , June Carter Marty Robbins or any of the C+W greats going ANYWHERE dressed like these clods?! It's just so disrespectful...Furthermore, a friend of mine told me that she attended the Stage Coach Festival in So. Cal and this clown Kid Rock was speaking to the audience in such, filthy, vulgar and raunchy language, that she had to take her 10 and 12 year old kids home...and now he wins an award?!...He ought to be horse-whipped!...Hank Sr. must be turning over in his grave...it seems that only Marty Stuart and Sunset Slim are the only Country guys left who have any style...What a disgrace!...Hank Sr. must be turning over in his grave.

Andrew,
Maybe you should try the Republican party; they are good spellers! Here's some help for you:
IGNORANT (not ignorate) which ironically means unlearned-
PROBABLY (not probally)
DOESN'T (not doesent)
