Besides what was so courageous about what they said? If I remember when all the hoopla around them began it was performing overseas right? They should have spoken their mind at a show in Texas if they wanted to be courageous.

In fact, I hate when anything that any celebrity says politically makes the news. I don't give a hoot what George Clooney or Barbara Streisand have to say about the war or the political party.
These are my thoughts as well on entertainers political views.

As for the Dixie Chicks I put them in the category of every other country musician. They make the worst music known to man, and I would prefer being repeatedly hit in the head with a hammer to listening to their music.
