The Dixie Chicks last album won five grammys. They should have. They are very talented singers; but, American radio doesn’t like their patriotic views. I always thought that the good ole USA was a place that people had the right to their political views. The Dixie Chicks have paid the price because of thesehypocritic radio stations who refuse to play their music. What a joke. I wonderjust how many of these radio station owners voted for the present, President? The Bible says: “If you are without sin, cast the first stone”.I guess all of these radio stations are perfect, course we’ll see, when Judgement Day comes….won’t we?
The Country Music Association didn’t nominate them for any awards. What a bunch of hypocrits. Reminds me of the baseball writers who refuse to put anAmerican hero into the Baseball Hall of Fame for gambling; but, the ones who vote for the Football Hall of Fame, voted for a “coke” addict to be admitted. Sounds to me like our newspaper writers have their priorites bassackwards.
I, for one, will continue to listen to whatever music I so desire; and it will be by cds or cassettes. Maybe if enough of us listen to cds and tapes and cassetts, the radio won’t have anyone to listen. Wouldn’t that be funny. I keep my music and politics seperate. I don’t choose to tell the world what to do or to censure the world. That is God’s job, not mine. As far as I know, our US Constitution guarantees our right of freedom of speech, and it doesn’t say to retaliate against people who do. I would rather listen to a CD or a Cassett any day as listen to a bunch of music jockeys who think they have the right to censure people and their beliefs.
