The Dixie Chicks

[Moonliner]

I think if I were to judge every entertainment venue based on the politics of those involved, it would be chaos. Typically I don't worry too much about the players and just look at the product. Otherwise where does it all stop? No domino's due to their owners stance on abortion? No French wine because their soccer player headbutted that nice Italian boy?

As for the Dixie Chicks, I think the only real issue there was time and place. It's fine for me to pick on my little brother and call him a twit in public, but if you do it, watch out. They lambasted old chicken legs on foreign soil right before the start of a war of aggression. Had they done the same thing in Atlanta or New Jersey it would never have become an issue.
