Wait, It was Just a Joke!
Maines admitted that she told a London concert audience that the group was ashamed that the President is from their home state of Texas, but added:
Quote
"It was a joke and it wasn't planned. And it was really funny at the time. It got lots of cheers, and that's what it was meant for. You see the trouble that you can get into if you speak religion or politics. It gets people very upset."

Her Apology...
Quote
As a concerned American citizen, I apologize to President Bush because my remark was disrespectful. I now realize that whoever holds the office should be treated with the utmost with respect.

"The more flack I get for it, the prouder I am." She was also quick to point out that in her hometown of Lubbock, Texas, "only six people showed up," for a public Chicks CD-smashing protest.

"A lot of people since 'The Incident' ask me if I would take back what I said or if I had regrets," Natalie Maines told the crowd at Detroit's Fox Theatre on Sunday Night (Oct. 3). "You know what? If I took it back, Bush would just call me a flip-flopper."
