Did you just hear them say that on Fox? that Dale Earnhardt Jr. says

that, politics aside, everyone should see Farenheit 911?

What's up with that? Frankly, I expect better from Dale Earnhardt Jr.

and Fox. I'm shocked, annoyed and irritated. They better take that one

back. They don't know who they're messing with. We need to find out

what's going on here. I am definitely pissed.

Like it or not, America is a free country. If Dale Jr. thinks everyone

should see Michael Moore's crap, so be it. If he agrees with a hatriot

like Moore it is his perrogative to do so. He must however face the

consequences of making such a statement. Many people do not agree with

him.

Bad move no matter how you look at it.

The Marine thread is developing that it might be a pakistani who works

with the Marines that was taken.

How Dare the Kerry Campaign exploit not only Dale Jr. but the memory

of his father by asking him to speak for Kerry to NASCAR Dads.

I for one am glad I have NEVER been on the Earnhardt

bandwagon...whether it was Sr. or Jr., I am a Ford man and a Dale

Jarrett/Mark Martin fan. They both will remain my drivers until they

retire. I just never have been a fan of this family no matter how much

was accomplished.

Sr.'s death was sad and horrible but it didn't mean I had to become a

fan of his kids. Hell no...I knew better. He is a punk.

I'm a Ford man myself, having 2 Expeditions. The black one was

formerly Bandit's (Burt Reynolds).

I'm just saying that a trairotous attack shouldn't go unanswered. I

can't just ignore this. People need to know the truth about Earnhardt

Jr.

Verbatim from Chris Myers (Fox Sports announcer) on today's race at

Pomona pre-race program..

"You think you know Dale Earnhardt Jr.? He advised his crew to go

see the Michael Moore movie Farenheit 911. He said hey, it'll be a

good bonding experience no matter what your political belief. It's

a good thing as an American to go see... and it just shows you that

Dale Earnhardt Jr. can reach far beyond the steering wheel."

Dale Jr. is also a big fan of gangsta rap and one of his best friend

is none other than Snoop Dog, as I recall. Dale Sr. must be spinning

in his grave. There's no doubting Junior's talent as a driver, but if

you're looking for role models in NASCAR, you can do better than #8...

Sounds like the Senator Kerry position. So we can't comment on the

movie and you can? Did you actually pay to see this trashing of the

Bush administration?

Roscoe Turner supported and was a big part of the Indy Raceway after

he left our little town, Corinth, Mississippi. Turner won just as many

times as Jimmy Doolittle in Air races. Indy and Turner were tightly

connected. Turner lived the rest of his life out at Indianapolis. I

was lucky to have known his family.

I paid to see the movie. It was a matinée so it was only $4.75, but I

paid.

"So we can't comment on the movie and you can? "

you can comment, but unless you saw it you have no idea. You'll be

repeating what others said, or what you think is in it.
