And I think he's the best Democratic candidate we've had since Bill Clinton. And that's coming from a Democrat."

So I'm suppose to be impressed that a DimocRAT offered up praise for another DimocRAT? Who knew????? Perhaps if he had given praise for a conservative I might think better of him.

Well, Toby, you should be really happy when you hand over a much larger chunk of your paycheck to the gooberment if Obambi is elected.

“Of personage he was one of the goodliest men that lived in his time, very high of stature, in manners more than a man, and proportionable in all his members unto that height: of countenance he was most amiable, courteous an benign in gesture unto all person, and specially unto strangers; seldom or never offended with anything, and of so constant a nature in himself, that I believe few can say that ever he changed his cheer for any novelty how contrary or sudden soever it were.

Prudent he was in council and forecasting; most liberal in rewarding his faithful servants, and ever unto his enemies as it behoveth a Prince to be; he was learned in all sciences, and had the gift of many tongues; he was a perfect theologian, a good philosopher, and a strong man at arms...what would you I should say of him: He was undoubtedly the rarest man that lived in his time”

~ William Thomas, writing of his contemporary Henry VIII

“Extraordinary and almost divine character...”A new star in the firmament” ~ Mountjoy writing of Henry VIII

Toby Keith, perhaps best known to non-country audiences for his post-Sept. 11 song "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue," says he's a Democrat, and was impressed by the senator from Illinois.

Toby needs to quit getting high with Willie and open his eyes to the real world.

Don't go nuts, people.

If you've been paying attention, you would have known that Toby Keith, while far from being a moonbat, was never like Charlie Daniels, Ted Nugent, or Sara Evans, i.e. being on Sean Hannity's speed dial. This is a guy who recorded a song about smoking pot with Willie Nelson, who is as far left as is gets in the country community.

He was never "ours," and to my memory didn't make any Republican overtures when he had ample opportunities in the immediate aftermath of the Iraq war (which, if you remember, was popular after U.S. forces took Baghdad and yanked down that massive statue of Saddam).

From the FR thread "Toby Keith Pulls Freeper's Punch at Dixie Chicks," posted October 27, 2003 in the throes of the DixChix backlash:


Toby Keith, in an interview published in the current issue of Entertainment Weekly magazine, speaking of his public feuding with the we're-not-country-anymore group the Dixie Chicks, says the following:
But it's his feud with ''miserable person'' Maines that's earned Keith the most attention lately. ''She said my song makes country music look ignorant and you've gotta have more tact and be responsible,'' says Keith. ''They had a song called 'Earl Must Die' or something ['Goodbye Earl']. How hypocritical is that? How can you come off of a song with the message that if your husband abuses you, you're supposed to kill him and stick him in the trunk, or whatever -- I never heard it, but people told me about it -- and then call me ignorant for saying, 'Hey, you flew these planes into these buildings. We're angry about it, and we're gonna come get you'?''

Despite the F.U.T.K.-wear, Keith has no intention of lighting up Maines' world anymore. Last summer, his crew ''put up on our big screen an Internet picture somebody [concocted] of her and Saddam. The crowd went nuts. It was funny for a few nights, and then it started eating at me. I thought, You know what? I don't have that mean of a heart, to be able to kick somebody in the crotch like that. Just because she's young and spouted off, that's a little hardcore. So I put an end to it.''

Toby Keith -- the let-bygones-be-bygones, not-so-angry American? Well, maybe. But also, he adds, ''if I'm gonna do anything, it's gotta be funnier than that.'' In other words: Watch your a--, Natalie.


IMHO, Keith isn't being a weather vane; he's still where he was back then. He's in the center in Nashville, which is far to the right in Hollywood and New York.

Here’s a much better song by Lynrd Skynard, “Red, White, and Blue”.

We don’t have no plastic L.A. Frynds,
ain’t on the edge of no popular trend.
Ain’t never seen the inside of that magazine GQ.
We don’t care if you ‘re a lawyer, or a texas oil man,
or some waitress busting ass in some liquor stand.
If you got Soul
We hang out with people just like you

My hair’s turning white,
my neck’s always been red,
my collar’s still blue,
we’ve always been here
just trying to sing the truth to you.
Yes you could say
we’ve always been,
Red, White, and Blue

Ride our own bikes To Sturgis
we pay our own dues,
smoking camels, drinking domestic BREWS
You want to know where I have been
just look at my hands
Yeah, I’ve driven by the White House,
Spent some time in jail.
Momma cried but she still wouldn’t pay my bail.
I ain’t been no angel,
But even God, he understands.

My hair’s turning white,
my neck’s always been red,
my collar’s still blue,
we’ve always been here
just trying to sing the truth to you.
Yes you could say
we’ve always been,
Red, White, and Blue

Yeah that’s right!

My Daddy worked hard, and so have I,
paid our taxes and gave our lives
to serve this great country
so what are they complaining about

Yeah we love our families, we love our kids
you know it is love that makes us all so rich
That’s where were at,
If they don’t like it they can just
get the HELL out!

Yeah!

My hair’s turning white,
my neck’s always been red,
my collar’s still blue,
we’ve always been here
just trying to sing the truth to you.
Yes you could say
we’ve always been,
Red, White, and Blue

oh..oh..Red, White, and Blue....

Red, White, and Blue

oh..oh....Red, White, and Blue
