>>The D. Chicks did such a great job with the Super Bowl anthem and have really been on a roll lately<<

I always stay around for the anthem and the commercials on super bowl Sunday. But not this SB- I decided it was my patriotic duty to boycott them girls singing our beloved national anthem. I have been boycotting them ever since they made their comments regarding Toby Keiths "Angry American."

I always hate it when people screw with the National Anthem. I am almost ashamed to admit this but I think the most respectful rendition of it ever was the Backstreet Boys who I nothing about. If I could find it on tape soemwehere I'd buy that in a heartbeat.

The best rendition of the US National Anthem I have ever heard was the one done by the Morman Tabernacle Choir for the Opening Ceremonies of the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympic Games. Moving beyond words.

Which one said what about Toby Keith's tune?

Well you'll be happy to know that the Dixie Chicks are expected to recieve a less then happy homecoming in N.C. next week. I was 1 of hundreds that apparently sent e-mail to the local country radio station (yes, I listen...) expressing frustration with the D.C. After considering what to do, they (KYGO-Denver) decided to pull their music, 'for a time', to send the message and be responsive to their listeners. I think its great. The D-Js were talking about it this AM and admitted that the vast majority of the e-mail suggested pulling their music. Free speech? You bet. But it MUST be accompanied with the responsibility for what you say! Even if you are a Dixie Chick.
