Dixie Chicks
Remember this about the radical authoritarian failures who run
America's one-party government: They aren't rulers because
of the impoverished power of their ideas.
No, it is the thuggish
power of their voices -- and assorted illegal acts -- that have
given them rubber
stamp control of this nation.
Sometimes it is important to remember
that there are voices, fine melodic ones at that, who have the
courage to speak truth
to power.
The Dixie Chicks have risked their careers to be critical
of the peril that the Bush regime poses to the United States.
Yet,
they received divine justice of sorts when their latest album,
"Taking
the Long Way," soared to number one on the charts
awhile back.
It's not a political album. In fact, it's
a highly personal one. They are musicians after all.
But
they are also patriots who care deeply about their country, and
aren't intimidated by the brutes in the
White House.
The Dixie Chicks have fine voices -- and
are a voice to listen to, in more ways than one.
That is why they
merit this week's BuzzFlash "Wings of Justice Award."
