Not Ready To Back Down

The Dixie Chicks:

I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over

I’m so excited they’re finally coming out with another one. After that whole “we’re ashamed of our President” thing where assholes started boycotting them, I went out and bought more!

I want it, I want it RIGHT NOW!

The Chicks are back, thank goodness. If only the rest of the cow-towed opposition had half the spine these women had. I will buy this CD, and give some as gifts to my friends, just to put money in their pockets.

I’m w/ a nut. I don’t listen to country music, but as soon as the Dixie Chicks were criticized for their remarks, I bought their album and called the local radio stations asking them to play their songs.

This sort of death threat insanity reveals how shaky some conservatives’ philosophical foundations are. If a country singer expressing her opinion can send you over the edge, you must not have much faith in the strength of your argument. Good lord.

I have to admit that I’d barely heard of them and never listened to them before the boycott. But I decided that any Texans who felt that way about Bush deserved my support and therefore went out and bought their CDs. Turns out I like their music a lot, so I’ve kept buying it. They’re not the only Texans ashamed of the Prez…and the way most Texans reacted to their remark.
