“Even if I had thought about what I wanted to say, I don’t think I ever could have imagined what happened. What I said was just so lame.”

Not only was it lame, Natalie, it was stupid. You pissed on your target audience and then were surprised when they took offense.

What's up with them stealing the title of Laura Ingraham's book? Is that cool? Legal?

Until then they can complain all they want. It's called freedom of speech, which many here seem to discard, depending on the circumstances.

Actually, I think most here support the freedom of the Dixie Chicks to make their idiotic comments. They also support the freedom of C&W fans to express their disagreement with the Dixie Chicks' stupid comments by removing their financial support of the Dixie Chicks. They also support the freedom of radio station managers to recognize their audience and make a decision of whether or not to play DC "music" based on that audience. There's a whole lot of freedom going on here that the Dixie Chicks are so stupid that they think it is censorship.

I didn't get mine either.

Seriously, though. You know that she has never even bothered to read FR if this is her view. Anyone that takes the time to read this site could not go away thinking we are a bunch of remote controlled robots. It's clear from our differing views on so many subjects that we are independent thinkers who just happen to agree strongly on some subjects, like the Dixie Chicks ignorant behavior.

Moderator! Moderator! This guy hasn't been taking his mind control pills!!

Draw a 400 mile radius around Lubbock.

The best heart surgeons in the southwest are in the middle.

The best of the best abandoned NM and other states in the early 1990's.

If I fall down today in Tijeras, NM, chances are I will be air-evac'ed to Lubbock.

Yes, it does, but the boxes are unmarked so you may have to buy the whole pallet.
