The way I see it, if they want to take a potshot at the Prez, that's one thing.

To do it on foreign soil, however, is different.

If their Yahoo site was shut down due to an overload of people not quite happy with what crap has come out of their mouths, maybe it is time to shut and listen for a change.

Which one of the chicks is homosexual, or is it two of them? I never could understand why folks like their songs. The ones I've heard are statements of anger and depression.

I don't think they're gay. The fiddler has been married twice, though. The brunette had a baby recently. I don't know about Naomi the lead singer.

The singing group formerly known as the "Dixie Chicks" officially accepted French citizenship and announced that from now on they will be called "Les Poulettes Renduées" (The Surrender Chicks)

I've heard two song that had homosexual lyrics. I just wondered if they are trying to attract that crowd.

Looks like Steve Earle will have a new opening act soon on the "has been" tour.

I was thinking of buying the latest Chicks album. Instead, I'll download it for free on WinMx. They aren't getting my money.

Friend, if it weren't for anger and depression there wouldn't BE Country Music.

The Chicks got some notice a few years ago when they put out a song about an abused woman who kills her husband.
She'd gotten a divorce but her ex-husband broke a restraining order and abused her again. So...:

She held Wanda's hand as they
worked out a plan
And it didn't take long to decide

That Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
Those black-eyed peas
They tasted all right to me Earl
You're feeling weak
Why don't you lay down
and sleep Earl
Ain't it dark
Wrapped up in that tarp Earl


Surely nobody can defend domestic abuse and we can only hope the law can keep it from re-occuring after divorce
or separation, but you wonder, does the song glorify
murder (even "justified" murder?)

Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
We need a break
Let's go out to the lake Earl
We'll pack a lunch
And stuff you in the trunk Earl
Well is that all right
Good Let's go for a ride
Earl hey

What would the reaction to the song be if it were about a man who was abused by his wife, and the man decides
to kill her? (Again, domestic abuse must stop, but...)

"I won't be supporting their President-hating habits anymore."

Best Comment I've Seen yet over on the Dixie Chicks Forum:

"Well that was a nice career!"
