He wrote one of the best songs to come out of the 9/11 tragedy - "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (the Angry American)". It contained the words that come closest to describing my feelings on the matter - "We'll put a boot in your a**, it's the American way." A little crude but oh so satisfying.

Actually better than "The Angry American" is his new duet with Willie Nelson. "Beer for my Horses." This song talks about justice the old fashioned way. "Take all the rope in Texas, find a tall oak tree, round up those bad boys, hand up high in the streets...for all the people to see."

Then is a stroke of sheer genius, instead of sitting around and being sad, then heading off as a group for grief counseling, Toby and Willie sing..."We'll all meet back at the local saloon. We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces singing Whiskey for our men and beer for our horses."

Big surprise that he votes the right way! NOT.
