Country music fans tend to be a pretty conservative group. The Dixie Chicks bashed Bush on foreign soil. They elected to insult a large number of their fan base and paid the price. I am much more tolerant of Americans criticizing the US on our own soil. When they start trashing this country in foreign tabloids but hold their tongues here for business reasons, then they deserve no respect. Will Smith did something similar a few years ago but he basically portrayed the US as a large nation full of racists as compared to Europe. Sometimes the anti-American feelings of these simple-minded celebrities just ooze out when they think that fans back home aren't listening.

Do u think they thought that no one else would hear about it?

They also had a documentary where they called him a Dumb ****. I'm sure they knew someone would see this. Or was the documentary only available on foreign soil?
