Willie Defends the Chicks

Not only does Willie Nelson defend the Dixie Chicks for their 2003 comments critical of George W. Bush in this week's Time magazine, but the Highwayman also refers to his own criticism of the President, which was also made overseas:

"I said 'He's not from Texas and he ain't a cowboy, so let's stop trashin' Texans and cowboys.' It got a little chuckle, but I didn't get run out of the country."

God love you, Willie.
