Good point. But it doesn't count if you use it against religious people or Conservatives. It is acceptable then

The Pope isn't an American President...

She actually called the Pope a Nazi rather than just making a comparision, right?
But I'm not sure anyone could fire her because as an actress she's more like a self-employed contractor.
Sure, someone might not hire her for a movie, but doubt it.
But if she were a sports figure and had personal endorsements, she'd have a good chance of losing some of those.

I agreed with everything the Dixie Chicks said
Bush was an utter failure as president and literally hundreds of millions of Americans were embarassed that he was our president...

The Dixie Chicks got banned from country radio stations, had their CDs burned, were vilified in the press, and were pretty much cast out from the Nashville music scene for what they said - it effectively ruined their career. They've only produced one album and done one tour since their comment, which was eerily similar to what Hank Jr said, only about a different president.
And no, I don't agree with what happened to him either. The TV execs were looking for an excuse to get rid of him, and this was the only pathetic one they could find.
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
