I just received this today - I had not seen it posted on FR before. Really says it all - especially today when our military freed Iraq.

Lt. McDowell, that is a beautiful missive. It's very impressive. You've said it all. Thank you.

How dare you pocket profits off songs about soldiers, their deaths and patriotism while criticizing their Commander in Chief abroad, even while they prepare to give their lives to ensure your own freedom of speech.

I could not have said it any better.

Good post.
Bump!

WOW!!! How dare you pocket profits off songs about soldiers, their deaths and patriotism while criticizing their Commander in Chief abroad, even while they prepare to give their lives to ensure your own freedom of speech.

This is exactly the hypocrisy I noticed when this story broke...the song about the Vietnam soldier rocketed this group to fame and fortune. They had no right to seek the applause of an anti-American crowd on foreign soil during wartime.

Excellent post!

You've just got to be so proud of these guys. They are the perfect example of all that is good, wholesome, and courageous about America.

I must admit I was skeptical about this email being an urban legend. Did the Snopes search, and found it is true. An Open Letter to Dixie Chicks
