No, probably not the first one that would come to mind. Probably not the second or third one, either. This campaign of deception has to do with the country-music charts.

Country singer Chely Wright said yesterday she was dismissing the head of her fan club and shutting down a team of volunteers after The Tennessean learned that some of them posed as members of the military or their families to promote her latest song.

Seventeen members of a handpicked team of fans contacted radio stations around the country asking for more airplay for Wright's pro-military ballad, The Bumper of My SUV. It was all part of an organized campaign by leaders of the fan club who encouraged the team to do such things as ''tell 'em your husband is a marine — whatever it takes.''

If you're like me, you're just, like, confused by this, right? How can country-music lovin' red-staters pushin' pro-military jonks be ... lying pieces of shit? Aren't they by nature ethically advanced beyond the ken of coastal elites?

Tards bilking tards. Think I'm being harsh? The song itself is pure demagoguery:

The Bumper of My SUV, which was written by Wright, tells how she was driving down West End Avenue in Nashville in her SUV when someone saw her bumper sticker supporting the troops and made an obscene gesture. The song calls for support of the troops no matter what a person thinks of the war in Iraq.

Wright said she sang it when she entertained U.S. troops in Iraq. The song received such a positive response that she thought people back in the United States ought to hear it.

Yeah, yeah. It's all about the troops. Die a fiery death, bitch.
