People Were Misled

Once again Natalie Maines, lead singer of the Dixie Chicks, voices her opinion about the war in Iraq. Last March the Dixie Chicks were excoriated for exercising their constitutional right of free speech by voicing their displeasure of President Bush.
In her latest remarks Ms. Maines feels that the American people were misled by their leaders but takes no pleasure in how the war has become a stalemate. Her comment "I would have liked to have been proven wrong" says more about her character than the gaggle of critics who took such delight in name calling and beating the Dixie Chicks over the head and shoulders, many times in a sophomoric manner, for exercising their constitutional right of free speech.
When you continue to voice your opinions after having been the subject of a boycott you should be applauded for standing up for your ideals and not attacked because your ideals diverge from the "majority."
