Ditzy Chick Documentary Won't Help Their Public Image

The Ditzy Chicks have done their best to wreck their careers with middle America, but there are still some folks willing to buy tickets to their concerts. That may change after word gets out on their new documentary:

In one memorable scene, Maines watches news footage of the president being interviewed about the furor that followed the singer's on-stage comment that she was ''ashamed the President of the United States is from Texas,'' which resulted in the group being dropped from most radio stations, as well as protests and plummeting sales. ''The Dixie Chicks are free to speak their mind,'' Bush told Tom Brokaw at the time, adding, ''They shouldn't have their feelings hurt just because some people don't want to buy their records when they speak out. You know, freedom is a two-way street.''

After watching this footage, Maines repeats the president's comment about how the group shouldn't have their ''feelings hurt,'' incredulous, and then says, ''What a dumb f---.'' She then looks into the camera, as if addressing Bush, and reiterates, ''You're a dumb f---.''

We could be wrong, but we have a feeling that in Toronto, at least, they're gonna love it.

The nutroots and Dems will get a big charge out of it too. Say goodbye to ticket sales between the coasts.
