So their new album is more defiant than their last, they retracted their apology regarding the disrespectful comments of POTUS' office and are thumbing their collective nose at country music.

They are set to appear on Larry King, MSNBC etc. Are they opportunists, shrewd marketers or artists of conscience?

Stations who don't play their music and fans who don't buy their offerings just fan the flames.

Why should we care? Why do they get death threats? There are alot of musical acts that are equally or more critical of Bush. The demographic of the average country fan seems to be right wing.
