well she just gave a healthy '**** you' to half her audience.
What is with these morons who think people pay outrageous ticket prices to listen to them spout off their political stances?
People bought tickets to listen to her sing, not be a propagandist for another fat slob.
Well people voted with their feet and the Casino manager kicked her rear to the curb. I'd have loved to have seen that, and the expression on her face.
Some people will cry censorship, but when censorship only occurs whenb the government does it. The Casino guy had every right to get rid of her.
he Dixie Chicks were incredibly stupid also when they decided to exercise their right of free speech. The stupid thing was not understanding that there were consequences and that freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences. Their small minds were unable to comprehend that it wasn't censorship when some of the people they offended decided not to enrich them any more. The government didn't boycott them, the people did.
It's stupid to annoy half the population just so you can make a political statement, and not expect repercussions. I wonder when a conservative or pro Bush performer will make a similar gaffe?
