Those poor Dixie Chicks

Yeah, their careers are over, done, finished.

Their new CD only debuted at #1. What shall they do.

This is from Billboard, see if you can spot what the spin in the right wing media is going to be ...

For the third time in their career, the Dixie Chicks roost on the top of The Billboard 200. The Columbia album "Taking the Long Way" tallied 526,000 copies in its first week of U.S. sales, according to Nielsen SoundScan, the trio's best-selling week since 2002's "Home" debuted with 780,000.

And a bonus

From CNN.com

First-week sales on "Taking the Long Way" were better than Toby Keith's "White Trash With Money" (330,000).
