Carrie should be mindful of what happened to the Dixie Chicks when their left-wing politics alienated their traditional conservative fan base.

You mean like the Chicks, Carrie might have to resign herself to only earning 200 times what the average American earns, instead of 700 times as much? Somehow, I think poor Carrie will survive even if she goes the way of the Dixie Chicks. The so-called ruination of which is a pet peeve of mine since it's completely fabricated. While idiots celebrated a victory of principal, the chicks just continued to get richer and richer.

Really, it's amazing how stupid we can be when it comes to these topics. There is psychology that I honestly can't name at work, where some poor working stiff who earns a median wage feels qualified to call a man failure because he went from being the CEO from the #1 ranked Fortune 500 company to the 499th, even though both positions are light years ahead of what he himself will ever achieve.

It’s not about how much the Chicks earn. It’s that they permanently alienated their preponderantly conservative Christian fan base.

As the Lord, Himself, warned: “What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?”

That applies to the Chicks, to Carrie Underwood and to anyone else - rich or poor, famous or not - who sacrifices her or his Christian values on the altar of political correctness.
