"Given this one night’s collective assault on the ears, the eyes, and decency itself, is it any wonder that record sales have plummeted?"

Another quote from that Raymond Arroyo National Review online article! That opening line in the article is pretty questionable as well.

i gotta take some time off from this place, my personal issues are spilling over into my fake internet life and that just aint right

Here's another good one: why the dixie chicks were just being paranoid. Somehow includes lines from Madonna, Solzhenitsyn's _Gulag Archipelago_, and none actually talking about the multiple death threats that they got.

Oh yeah, and compares Soviet-style oppression w/ people attacking climate change deniers and Myspace.

Really.

This is corny and probably somewhat patronizing/racialist, but I am so incredibly proud of Cee-Lo.

I don't know if I would say proud, but maybe happy? His solo work's so good and underappreciated this def. gives him a bigger platform for it.

Was their performance at all linked to Ennio Morricone? I thought I had read he would be honored

He's being honored at the Oscars this year.

Nicka and Samm OTM about Cee-Lo. It is not often that someone so very strange ends up becoming so very omnipresent. I wouldn't be surprised if he never makes any more solo records though -- just a succession of weirdo collab "bands" like Gnarls Barkley, etc.

I believe Atlantic is repackaging his existing solo stuff.

xpost, ahh, good to know my mind isn't just making stuff up.

AP: Country radio still cold to Dixie Chicks
