Point: She only said she was embarassed that Bush was from Texas, not that she was embarassed to be from Texas. She did not apologize for America's actions. In fact, the Chicks next sentence was that they still supported the troops in Iraq/Afghanistan.
Also, LLoyd Maines produced an album for Charlie Robison in 2004 that included vocals by his daughter, Natalie. He also contributed sound mixing to the documentary "Shut Up & Sing". I don't think that falls under the heading of "practically disowning her." In fact, he has publicly stated his love, respect, and support of his daughter.
And, some Texans agreed with her.
