"The only country artist qualified to express his political views is Johnny Cash, because that man's seen it all. And he once torched a forest while tripping on mescaline."
Omar Williams,

"So the Dixie Chicks are against the war? I suppose next, they'll be speaking out against the General Lee jumping over a crick."
Theresa Krug,

"The Dixie Chicks should leave the opinion-giving to the professionals. Like that guy with the 'boot up your ass' song."
Melissa Spence,

"Lost in this whole controversy is one important point: That the Dixie Chicks' music profoundly blows."
