Gasp: The Dixie Chicks are abandoning Nashville. Their next album will have a "70s rock" feel. Yes, this all stems from "The Incident" when the singer ridiculed Bush during a London concert, and conservative country-music fans decided to boycott the Chicks' music.

I'm a country-music fan. I'm a hard rock fan. I'm also a 70s rock fan. But I've never been much of a Dixie Chicks fan (a cupla their songs are okay). However, it is pretty fascinating that the polarization in this country is so hot that pop culture icons are altering their careers to find the right political support group.

What's next? Donny and Marie Osmond are going to switch places?
