The people in "The Crucible" were crushed to death under stone walls after being falsely accused of Satanism. The Dixie Chicks lost some radio airplay for attacking their president on foreign soil in front of a huge crowd as their troops were heading into harm's way. Obviously, the same thing.

"The Crucible" was a thinly-veiled allegory about McCarthyism. What the Dixie Chicks are implying is that any retaliation against them for speaking out against Bush and the war is a neo-McCarthyist blacklisting

Screw 'em. They should have thought about the likely results of going into country music, with politics directly opposed to what most country-music listeners stand for
