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

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).

Of course, the news guys that report the TRUTH, Fox, Limbaugh, and HaAnnity and Colmes, have heroically stood firm, stayed the course, and not reported on this yet.

i call it a draw as to who won this one.

Reality sucks. Especially when it contradicts our cherished ideas.

So what was the radio blacklisting stuff about? Where the radio shows doing it to "punish" the Chicks for expressing an opinion the owners of the radio station disliked? Did they do it in the belief that continuing to play Chicks songs would loose them market share? Or was it a way to do the stupid country trick of wrap yourself in the flag to sell product?

You and your smartass smugness can kiss my muscular buttocks any time you want. Admit it...I'm right about you and your ilk...yer life is dominated by Bush....you're obssessed with all he does..you can't wait to attack him at every corner, or throw praise at his enemies in relation to every single aspect of your limited world.....why else come up with such an absurd topic trying to tie the Ditsy Jerks Grammy wins with anything to do with Republicans.
