I have been in Canada for five years, but I heard their popularity in the US dropped tremendously after their antics a couple of years go.
I know they are banned on at least one Charleston, WV station my mom listens to

"In an interview posted Monday (Jan. 27) on Entertainment Weekly's Web site, she says she's grateful for "The Incident" -- when she told a London audience that she was "ashamed" that President Bush is from Texas -- and that she has no regrets about the consequences, including the unofficial end to the Dixie Chicks' career in country music.
"I would be cheating myself and not setting a good example for my children to go back to something that I don't wholeheartedly believe in. So I'm pretty much done. They've shown their true colors. I like lots of country music, but as far as the industry and everything that happened ... I couldn't want to be farther away from that," she tells the magazine. "

From: "Enjoy every sandwich" - Warren Zevon
"Excitable Boy" by Warren Zevon.
"He took little Suzie to the Junior Prom
Excitable boy, they all said
And he raped her and killed her, then he took her home
Excitable boy, they all said
Well, he's just an excitable boy
After ten long years they let him out of the home
Excitable boy, they all said
And he dug up her grave and built a cage with her bones
Excitable boy, they all said
Well, he's just an excitable boy ."
