The morning news shows providing a venue for yet another Bush Basher? shocking!!!!.
The Dixie Chicks are talented, no doubt about it. I agree with O'Reilly, " we have a right not to buy their records". I have not bought their records!! Not because of their lack of talent, but because I am "voting with my dollars". Why support this attitude? Entertainers, whether in sports, screen, or sound need to remember the buying public makes buying decisions based on any number of considerations. If you are going to make you feelings public, as the Chicks have, you need to live (quietly) with the consequences. The Chick have insulted their fans in the months since this episode by expressing their anger toward us. We didn't cause this.....you did. Your fame gave you the soapbox; your ignorance and self centerednees took it from you, not your fans.

I work in a professional setting. If I make in a very agressive way my opinions known that offend my clients, I will feel the affects.

When will dumb 'artists' learn this?

You want to stand on principle, then stand on principle like all the other starving artists.
