I don't believe anyone has an issue with them saying whatever goes through their vacant minds. I, for one, don't think they are unpatriotic, although I do think they are racist for using the word "Dixie" in their name.
Dixie Chick #1 strikes me as a spoiled little teenager who is going to give her opinion, no matter what. She might be shown evidence to the contrary, but she is not going to consider it. She waffles, then stands firm, and then waffles again. I look forward to seeing how she ages, when 10 years from now she appears on VH1s,
Where are they Now? My guess is she won't have changed a lick, and she will spend the entire program badmouthing President Allen.
