Thread Name: Linda Ronstadt pulls a Dixie Chicks
Subject: RE: Linda Ronstadt pulls a Dixie Chicks
One thing that people seem to be misinformed about is what Ronstadt actually said. All she did was to dedicate a song to Michael Moore, who she said "cares about this country deeply and is trying to help." She did not go into a long political rant. Granted, as some of us have asked, why should I care what she thinks of Moore? On the other hand, why should I object to such a dedication, no matter my politics? It all seems like another right-wing intimidation ploy to me. And, as Greg says, a temper tantrum.
