with one's mouth closed?

Reminds me of the uproar when Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks dared to make a political comment about George Bush the Lesser. She was told to shut up, received death threats, the whole range of comments about her was a disgusting display of sexism.

Does this mean that the US is NOT a post-sexist society?
