 | minkey (40) 03/31/2004 | You want to speak up and express your opinion? Fine. The Dixie Chicks are famous and therefore have the opportunity to have millions listen to what they have to say. But don't talk to the national media about something you have no clue about whatsoever. Do your research and at least be able to make an educated opinion.

 | abichara (63) 03/31/2004 | They aren't very controversial to me. Maybe Toby Keith and the Bush patriot country music stars get worked up over them, but they're not controversial by any stretch of the imagination. What, you're committing treason if you don't march lock and step behind Bush?

 | scarletfeather (53) 12/24/2003 | I am not into country music at all, but I think the Dixie Chicks got a bad rap. Natalie Maines had the right to express her opinion. Do we live in some kind of dictatorship where anyone who speaks against the leader of the country is punished? Country music fans just got a little hot under the collar because they tend to be right wing. I think it took courage for Natalie Maines to speak out and I would urge her not to feel too bad about Bush being from Texas. The Bushes are not really Southerners(thank you Jesus!) They are originally from the Northeast.

 | StanUzbeck (16) 11/26/2003 | So they told a London audience that they were ashamed that Bush shares their home state of Texas. I would go even further in expressing my shame that Bush is a member of the same species as I. The reaction of country music fans and radio stations around the country has been appalling and frankly a little immature. It seems like this country is one big high school, where everyone praises the ideals of individuality and freedom of speech but demand complete conformity. I don't blame the Dixie Chicks for not wanting to be associated with country music anymore, seeing as how they were treated with such contempt by their fans. I guess freedom of speech is just another political tool to be expounded when it suits their purposes and withdrawn when it suits their opponents' purposes.
