		<description><![CDATA[What&#039;s &quot;unnatural&quot; for you is not always &quot;unnatural&quot; for others. What&#039;s absurd is that you want to sit there and pretend that you know what you&#039;re talking about, yet you can&#039;t write in any sort of correct English. &quot;Face reality; he is just expressing what most people are natrually inclined to understand through reason and a conscience.&quot; - Reason and/or conscience has NOTHING to do with you Repubes, so don&#039;t try to claim otherwise. Reason is something you religious-right nuts are very uncomfortable with, so why then would you claim to use reason to support your narrow-minded theory? That&#039;s right, because you AGREE with John Rich &quot;The Bitch,&quot; but I have news for you; that doesn&#039;t make it right. &quot;To try and defend the unnaturalness otherwise is to deny, well reality!&quot; - Look who&#039;s talking, I&#039;m sorry have you ever SEEN God; then he doesn&#039;t exist. YOU come to terms with reality then maybe you would have the right to FORCE your OPINIONS on other people, but until then shut up!

To the rest of you dopey homophobe apologists, quit claiming that he doesn&#039;t &quot;hate gays.&quot; The Country Music Industry is BUILT on homophobia, racism, and exploitation of national tragedies and the military, not to mention all that drinking. It&#039;s a well-known fact that the majority of Country Music (performers and fans) believe in the same things, which more often than not happens to be the bible and they take said bible literally, which isn&#039;t how it&#039;s supposed to be used. If you don&#039;t believe in the same things then you get boycotted, harassed, stalked, and have death threats sent against you like the Dixie Chicks. The same people that are kissing John Rich &quot;The Bitch&#039;s&quot; ass right now are the same brainless twits that vilified the Dixie Chicks, gee and people wonder why Republicans are called hypocrites.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dude - I&#039;m not saying Big &amp; Rich are gay, and I know &quot;Lost in This Moment&quot; is a song about marriage.  and if you can get behind John Rich&#039;s point of view on gay marriage, then I&#039;m not gonna be the guy to convince you otherwise... but I disagree with you.

And because I disagree with you, and believe that there&#039;s nothing wrong with the concept of gay marriage, I can also then classify &quot;Lost in This Moment,&quot; as performed by Big &amp; Rich (or anyone else for that matter), as a marriage song which can be an integral part of any couple&#039;s marriage celebration and memories, straight or gay.  I just think it would be ironic, and just desserts, if the gay community flipped the script and declared Big &amp; Rich&#039;s version of the song as their gay marriage anthem.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are a few things I find disconcerting here.  #1 is that the RAYBAW imprint over at Warner Bros. Nashville that John is involved with is named RAYBAW (red and yellow blcak and white) to convey tolerance among human beings, as evident in the fact that Muzik Mafia includes folks like Cowboy Troy and Damien Horne.

#2 - Isn&#039;t &quot;Lost in This Moment,&quot; aside from being a great wedding song for straight couples, perhaps the one true Gay marriage anthem?  I mean, how many wedding songs feature two male vocalists harmonizing their love to one another as this song does.  I&#039;m not suggesting that Big Kenny and John Rich are anything but heterosexual, but seriously, most duets of this nature feature a man and a woman vocalist declaring their love for one another, not two males.  Considering John&#039;s statement I think some Gay DJ ought to do a house remix of &quot;Lost in This Moment&quot; and take ownership of the song as a gay marriage anthem to give John his comeuppance for his absurd statements on this issue.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Politics aside, John Rick is a huge jerk. I saw him in concert earlier this year and was disgusted with the way he was treating audience members.

As far as his statement on homosexual marriage goes - why say something like that in the first place if you&#039;re just going to turn around and apologize for it? It&#039;s obvious that his pea-brain can&#039;t understand the difference between homosexuality and incest, so one would wonder why he&#039;s even allowed on talk radio.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think his music just plain sucks, and I&#039;m sorry he&#039;s getting this publicity.

to all on this discussion, one of these days somebody is gonna steal your phone, or hit your car and not have insurance, or whatever, and all of a sudden you&#039;re gonna stand up and say &#039;hey that&#039;s not right!&#039; and you will have discovered relativism.  If two guys can marry and it&#039;s ok for some, then I can steal your phone or cut you off in traffic, because it&#039;s all just my opinion of what I THINK is right, right?

His music still sucks.  Stupid, and not even close to country.  It just plain sucks]]></description>
