"I'd rather have a smaller following of really cool people who get it, who will grow with us as we grow and are fans for life, than people that have us in their five-disc changer with Reba McEntire and Toby Keith," Dixie Chick Martie Maguire told Time. We don't want those kinds of fans."

So now you get to choose who your fans are?

And they call conservatives arrogant?

"We don't want those kinds of fans."

Translation: "A lot of the people who buy our music are just morons. I hope they shrivel up and die. Oh! Hey! We'll be in Memphis next week! C'mon out and see us play!"

All they'll have are liberals who buy their music out of solidarity, but who never unwrap the shrink wrap. Oh, and a small minority of country fans who don't care about the Dixie Chick's meddling in politics.

She is a retard, just like the other two dingbats.

If you want your band to be a political movement, you at least have to be intelligent. You're not. You're stone cold stupid.

And if you'd rather not have fans, keep up this shtick. It's kinda funny thinking the Michael Moore crowd is buying your brand of lousy music because "you get it."

And who in their right mind would want to diss Reba McEntire, a class act and great person?

Anybody know the bio and history of Natalie Maines? Did I read that her family is big in the music business in Nashville and she had a lot of help "making it" in the biz?

I'd take Reba over Natalie "The Short, Ugly One" Maines any day.
