I think they're going after the wrong guy, that's for sure.
The Dixie Chicks are (or at least, were) well-liked, but Springsteen is LOVED, and deeply respected. He's a "working-class hero" in people's eyes, and a rock icon, period.
A lot of people have a deep affection for The Boss, and going after him, is like going after any other American institution.
It'll be interesting to see if this back-fires on Ms. O'Grady.
