(CBSDFW.COM) - Country crooner and controversial advocate/artist Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks tweeted this weekend that she's "ashamed Ted Cruz" is from America.
It's not the first time the lead singer has spoken her mind about a politician. She called out former President George W. Bush in 2003, when she told a London audience she was ashamed he was from Texas.

"Just so you know.... I'm ashamed Ted Cruz is from America," Maines wrote on Twitter late Saturday night (Jan. 23). With her tweet she posted side-by-side images of former President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Cruz.
The Dixie Chicks (Maines, Emily Robison and Martie Maguire) hit the road for the first time in America in a decade in June.
