I think this song is less about forgiveness and more about standing up for what one believes is right and not bowing to record companies etc to make nice-or say words they just don't mean- to appease the close-minded folks who heartily attacked them for being a true American and exercising their right to free speech! I am SO proud of these women and their families!!!

as a conservative, i still respect the dixie chick's freedom of speech. it is unfortunate that the chick's glorious career was cut short because they were brave enough to take advantage of their right as americans. however, this song surely served as the best possible last statement. but i really do hope that they will be allowed to provide us with great music again.. maybe someday.

The song sounds cool, but the message is kind of like whoa. To me forgiveness is the best way, you're mad but it's your choice to let it go, it's like a weight lifted off your shoulders. Idk, it's just me, not bashing the Dixie Chicks or anything they're amazingly talented, or not trying to start a fight, just saying. The video is dark too and well directed as well.

The message resonates with people who have been seriously victimized. Things like that cannot be easily forgiven, and anger is part a recovery process that can last many years.

Great song and great band. It's a shame that because of a couple words they said could have such a huge impact on their appearance and career. They still could make great music, I just don't think people want to give them that right anymore. This is America and don't we believe in freedom of speech, or is that just in the dust now?
