The Bumper of My S.U.V. Reviews:
Really?????
2008-03-16 - Y'all are serious??? There has got to be better music available at the Wall Mart! Life is way too short. Chely, SHAME ON YOU!!! But then you didn't even stand a chance with parents who couldn't even spell Shelly! (Is there any rating lower than one star?) OUR TROOPS DESERVE BETTER THAN THIS.

Controversy where no controversy should be
2006-12-22 - I'm a little amused (or is that "bemused") at the tempest aroused by this song. It's pretty middle-of-the-road both politically and artistically. Apparently the political left and the political right hear different versions of the words of this song and respond accordingly. Very interesting how polarized our society has become and how a simple little song can bring out the venom in people.

Basically, it's not one of her best songs but it is a good one, with words expressing support for those who put their lives at risk to preserve the freedoms we usually take for granted. You don't have to be in favor of war to respect the men and women in the armed service. That is, of course, what the lyrics are saying. I also respect Ms Wright since she walks the talk. She was among the first entertainers who flew into Iraq to offer support and to raise the morale of those stationed there. That took a lot of courage on her part and I give all the credit due her.

Had to have it!
2006-09-01 - My son graduated from USMC Boot Camp two weeks ago and this song was on the big screen just prior to the Marines entering the building. Emotion was running high as most had not seen their loved ones for many months. The Marines, too, have wanted to find this song, and have it for their own. We went right out and bought it. Thanks, Chely, from a wife and mom of a United States Marine(I am married to one, as well!).

AWFUL !!!!
2006-01-10 - I think I know what she was trying to say here. Whether I agree with her or not is unimportant but I have a problem with bad writing. As the reviewer before me pointed out, this is just clumsy, poor writing. People who don't have any talent or, more importantly, have nothing new to say shouldn't make records. If you're going to repeat what someone else has already said, at least come up with a creative way of doing it. This "song" sounds like the words of a boring old relative; not the type of thing I want to hear set to music. It comes across to me as smug and stupid. Just because you've travelled doesn't mean you have wisdom. I get the impression that she was just looking for a reason to run her mouth. If I could give this 0 stars, I would. Terrible. By the way, I did not buy this disc. Unfortunately for me, I hear it on an office radio at work all the time.

There is no excuse for this song
2005-11-30 - Is this woman retarded? Her big issue is someone who flipped her off while driving and she assumes it was becasue of her stupid bumper sticker? Maybe they flipped her off because she cut them off, was driving like an a**hole, or even possibly because she is driving a gas guzzling SUV during war time when gas prices have skyrocketed and she prefers to drive a status symbol as opposed to something kinder to the environment or something that feeds into the greedy oil companies wallet.
Wow, your family has a military history. Big deal. I'm not impressed. I'd be willing to bet that if her family members that were actually involved in the war, they would have told her that they were sent there for no real reason, or at least reasons not worthy of risking the lives of our soldiers.
Basically this song only exists to capitalize on the trend of patriotism. Or to impress Ted Nugent so he'll bring her out on the road with Toby Keith and then try to sleep with her. How admirable.
