Just taking a moment to congratulate the Dixie Chicks for their “Song of the Year” Grammy win with “Not Ready to Make Nice.” I second the judges’ decision.

Readers of Lerterland know that I will not hesitate to air harsh criticism of leftwingers when I find it necessary. But the Dixie Chicks aren’t remotely the kind of ideologues I hold suspect. They distanced themselves early on from a quack administration. They’ve withstood vile attacks from the morally bankrupt forces of the American right, and they ought to be applauded. On to 2008.

[I’m growing more and more excited about Obama’s candidacy…]
