I LOVE the Dixie Chicks!!! I liked them before all the controversy, they write their own music, play their own instruments--they are very talented! Natalie has an amazing voice and Emily and Martie are fantastic musicians. I think they are also very courageous and I really admire them. Also their new CD is their best!!!

I like Country Music but not Any of their music!!!
To be ditchin' on America & The U.S. President like they did in a foreign country---won't listen to them at all. He is the Commander In Chief & freedom of speech or not, total lack of respect!!! Oooh, what the Dixie Chicks can really run the country so much better?? What would they sing there way out of everything & make us all fall asleep. LOL!!! They are trying to be celebrites in there way, voice some mumble jumble & the music & them took a dive.
I'd love to see those redneck girls even try to go through boot camp & put on some combat boots & fill a few hours in a Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Airman & Coast Guard boots.
Then see what they have to say!!!! They get to have the "freedoms" from what our fore-fathers did to fight for this country & what all our Armed Forces are facing today!! No matter what, we will always have people dying to defend our freedom. God Bless the U.S & all the Armed Forces!!!

I don't appreciate any entertainer that uses their access to a stage to promote their own political views. I don't really care what a Dixie Chick, Barbara Streisand or Brad Pitt thinks (I think if any of them got struck by a thought it would knock them out). These people produce nothing, contribute nothing and are nothing. The Dixie Chicks should stick to what they do best if they can find out what that might be - it isn't singing.

I think it's the biggest example (in country music)(i could think of others in different genres but that's another question) of shooting your career in the foot and ruining the ride. I think that Natalie one pretty much ruined it for the other two by spouting her mouth off. The only reason the other two had to back her up is so that the media didn't think there was dissent ion in the band. It's sad because I thought their music was actually kinda good but now I don't know the music is good I just can't get over the fact of what they had to say. If your a musician stick to music. Politics is not your bag.

I think if wadn't fer them two pretty sisters, Natalie Maines would be workin' at a Lane Bryant in Nashville... (paraphrasing a Larry the Cable Guy joke)
*****UPDATE***
User "Dannie" said above:
"I don't listen to them at all but I respect them for standing up for their beliefs. They have rights and we violated them."
WTF?! Are you retarded?! How exactly did anyone violate their rights!? Please, I dare you to try to answer that you idiotic college liberal who has no clue how the free market works! How the hell does Americans boycotting people they feel are anti-American, a violation of rights!? Is it a right for these hos to sell millions of CDs and make millions of dollars? If that's a right, then where do I file my lawsuit against you, because you haven't made it happen for me yet, and after all, "it's my right, and it's being violated" right? I am always shocked at the stupidity of Americans.
Republicans and anyone with half a brain.. .This is why the modern Democratic party must be eliminated. Idiots like "Dannie" have the ability to vote and cancel out informed votes. This person clearly knows about as much as a toddler, but there are millions like her, and they have taken over the Democratic party, especially after Howard Dean started running the show. Believe it or not, mainstream Democrats are truly this stupid.
***UPDATE***
BOOMBOOMBILLY (from page 2 of responses)
First, enough with the caps lock.
Now, after defending the hos and saying that what they said wasn't "wrong" here is how you ended your answer:
"WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE LEARNED THAT IF YOU ARE FIGHTING WITH A VERY POPULAR COUNTRY ARTIST YOU ARE COMPETING FOR FANS WITH, THEN DON'T BAD MOUTH THEM. YOU ARE IN THE SAME BOAT. TOBY KEITH IS VERY GOOD GUY AND A TALENTED INDIVIDUAL. LEAVE HIM ALONE UNLESS YOU HAVE SOMETHING NICE TO SAY."
Pardon me genius, but that you are the picture of a hypocrite. You defend the "chicks" right to say what they want, but tell people that they shouldn't say something about someone if it's not nice? Are you that stupid to not have any idea what you just said?
Anyway, read my previous comments on how we don't care whether they have the right to say it.. it's a matter of whether they are stupid or not... and a matter of what was done to them. And all that was done to them was free speech and free market punishment. You liberals act like we jailed the Dixie Chicks simply for being idiots. Are people not allowed to boycott their CDs if they think the hos were out of line? I'm so frustrated that there are people as idiotic as you all around us.

THIS QUESTION IS VERY GOOD. IT OPENED A CAN OF WORMS THAT NEEDED TO BE OPENED. THE DIXIE CHICKS ARE A FINE AND TALENTED GROUP OF PERFORMERS. THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING WRONG, LEGALLY. WE HAVE THE RIGHT IN THESE UNITED STATES TO SAY ANYTHING WE WANT AGAINST ANYONE WE WANT TO. DON'T PRINT LIES IN THE PAPER, THAT BECOMES LIBEL, BUT WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO OUR OPINION AND CAN VOCALIZE IT NO MATTER HOW RIGHT, WRONG OR STUPID IT IS. SAYING SHE IS ASHAMED THAT THE PRESIDENT IS FROM TEXAS IS NOT WRONG. THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T VOTE FOR G.W.
WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE LEARNED THAT IF YOU ARE FIGHTING WITH A VERY POPULAR COUNTRY ARTIST YOU ARE COMPETING FOR FANS WITH, THEN DON'T BAD MOUTH THEM. YOU ARE IN THE SAME BOAT. TOBY KEITH IS VERY GOOD GUY AND A TALENTED INDIVIDUAL. LEAVE HIM ALONE UNLESS YOU HAVE SOMETHING NICE TO SAY.

Very entertaining ladies. I like the blond with the short hair cut, she reminds me of another fireball I've had the pleasure of knowing a little better.
