All of our local good 'ol boy patriotic country radio stations stopped playing any Dixie Chicks music as soon as Natalie Maines made her comment about being embarrassed that GWB was from her home state of Texas, and they still don't play their music almost 10 years later. But there hasn't been so much as a murmur from them about what Hank Jr. had to say even though (at least in my mind) it was considerably more derogatory. Actually, i believe their career went in the toilet with regard to country music fans when they decided to get into it with Toby Keith, and the Dixie Chicks came to realize that you can insult the president but you don't fuck with Toby Keith. Just say'in. That is when they really started to get pulled, which i am SOOO glad lol. But i think part of the initial issue was WHERE they said it and to whom. I bet if they had said it at home to Americans, they wouldn't have had such a backlash. And didn't they apologize? I think that irritated a lot of people also. angel
