    Wow, they seem determined to destroy the restart of their career which was destroyed in 2003. I love their music (at least the early stuff), but I'm not going to spend any money on them anymore. They are just idiots who seem determined to show their asses.

    Don't let the Rachel Maddow haircut fool you, she's actually not a homosexual, but it really helps her to give off a "progressive" image that she uses to differentiate herself from pretty much everybody else associated with country music.

    There's no such thing as country music anymore. The "Dixie" chicks are part of the problem.

    Because she's a progressive feminist warrior living in a land of conservatives. She's a symbol to the left, and they will use her for all she is worth.

    By combining Trump and President as a compound noun, you defame the term used for Washington, Lincoln, Kennedy, Clinton, endless list of presidents. At the end of the day, Trump has no authority over average Americans. No one should be proud to call themselves a American for the next 1,460 days. It's become a meaningless word. The Dixie Chicks singer, who so rightfully spoke out against the Bush admin, is saying what everyone is saying, but afraid to say. Just like Meryl Streep did. These are brave individuals, and we should be following their cue.

    I get my political stances from Meryl Streep and De Niro. An intelligen bunch there.

    You would think the Chicks would have learned by now are they looking for another ban on country radio?

    I think she just said that to get a rise out of conservatives.

    I wonder if it will work???

    Well, actually, I don't wonder...and I would guess neither does she. :wink:

    She succeeded!

    They have the right to speak out against Trump. I have the right to not help them make money by refusing to buy their music. Get over it, though, Trump will be President in a little more than a week. Your whining and moaning won't change it.

    As long as you accept, and understand one can no longer be proud to be American, and now must apologize to the rest of the world. That important understanding is where we can reach middle ground.

    I will say the same to you I say to others. As long as you understand one can no longer be proud to call themselves a American, understand the term has become meaningless, and become a apologist to every foreigner we come in contact with, that's where we can strike middle ground. The lack to understand that is ignorance in its finest hour. The same amount of shame fell upon every American when Bush was elected.

    Yeah, keep telling yourself that. Just like you probably still believe Obama is a Muslim, and is rom Kenya.

    This no longer has to do with the outcome of the election.

    Obama made us proud to be American, like Billy did, as well as Kennedy and FDR. But Trump, not so much. We just embarrassed ourselves to the ninth degree.
