In a stunning reversal for the GOP , NeoCons and Bushites everywhere, the Dixie Chicks won 4 grammy awards tonight.

The peacenic, "we're with the terrosists" liberals voted for the anti-American musical group, thereby offending all right thinking, pro democracy persons in the real America...

Murder for freedom the stab in the back
Women and children and cowards attack

Run to the hills run for your lives "

Gosh, I can't wait for Obama and Hillary to start vying for the Dems, nomination.

Yes people, that was sarcasm.

How is this a “reversal,” stunning or otherwise?

Nihil est incertius vulgo, nihil obscurius voluntate hominum, nihil fallacius ratione tota comitiorum.

Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.

I refuse to remind you of recent history, which you choose to ignore.

Also a winner tonight, for Person of the Year With NO Sense of Humor, Finn Mac Cumhal.

Yet, neither of these stories explain how the GOP reversed themselves on anything.

OK, so I won't teach you history, but I guess I gotta go find a dictionary and explain English to ya. " Reversal" used in that sense, means defeat, not change of opinion.
It's kinda like " set back" , which is not what I'm accusing Republicans of doing on their chairs.

I think I get what you're going for here. The winning of the awards will not change the die-hard-right-winger belief that the Dixie Chicks all of a sudden went from, "approved listening material" to "evil damn bitches who are no better than communists" with their in-retrospect-benign comments on that UK stage. No amount of award type validation will change the fact that there are many people who now hate the Dixie Chicks. And will always hate the Dixie Chicks. Simply because of a few simple words that didn't fit into their notions of what it means to be patriotic (read: if you don't love George W Bush just shut the fuck up).

To that crowd of cult-of-personality believers no statue hardware will change the knee jerk.

In the political sense, reversal means ‘a change for the worst,’ but that’s not necessarily a defeat, but in any event, how is the Grammies, much less the Dixie Chicks, a stunning ‘change for the worst’ for the GOP, much less a defeat?
