Not Ready to Back Down

For the record, the Dixie Chicks are the shit. They came out against Bush and the Iraq War at the height of his and the war's popularity, and they've taken a ton of crap for it. But they've never apologized for it, and they've been right the whole time. The Democratic party could take a lesson here: when you're right, stand by your principles, and don't be cowed into submission.

They're out of the country after tomorrow night's show in Minneapolis, but they'll be back in the States beginning November 9 in Portland. Check out the tour schedule here. By all accounts they're pumpin' shows.
