This is old news, but I didn't want to let it pass unremarked.
So, the Dixie Chicks won lots of Grammy Awards. Well, isn't that special?
All it says is that the Grammy Foundation finally feels free to come slinking out to award trash talk against the United States.
As the article has it:
When I picture the decision makers at the Grammy Foundation, I see a mangy, hyena-like cur, crawling up to take a bite out of the body politic before skulking back to its midden.
I think this is what now passes for a profile of courage.

As the article has it:
The standing ovations the Chicks received Sunday illustrated how much the political climate has changed regarding the Iraq war, and even Bush.Note that it's "Bush." Not "the President," nor "President Bush." No, just "Bush."
