Oh I agree. I listen to Sarah Evans as she is openly Republican.

No Blixie Nixes. And no Tim McGraw.

"Maybe in 10 or 15 years when the music has died down," he said.

10 or 15 years? Who does he think he is, George Strait?

Too late to shut up and sing for Mr. Tim. Prediction....Tiny's record sales will plummet.

I love Friday and liberals who have their heads buried up their @$$.!

One can hope. I can add what I am thinking about his future, but it would be very unkind of me to write it.

Faith Hill, McGraw's wife, is a supporter of Bush and is a Republican.

This is very disappointing.
I like Toby Keith better, anyway.

Thank you for the pings!

Until the current idol Kenny C., showed up, Tim was the King of the so-called 'hat acts', marginally talented country-pop singers who owed all of their luck, fame and fortune to their record company's promotion department, which more likely than not employed some form of payola, but in any case invested big moola in these carefully selected boys. Nothing organic or natural in that. And yes, the focus groups decided the stars must wear cowboy hats! McGraw, not his real name, ain't no Vince Gill, and he ain't no Randy Travis, that's fer shore!

I don't know. Kennedy was better than Clinton. Heck, by today's standards Kennedy was a Republican.

(He dropped out in 1989 and moved to Nashville)

This is so typical of entertainers. They have on average way less education than the typical professional, and yet they think they know economic policy better than anyone else just because they are rich.

It's too bad. The guy is very likable and I think he is one of the luckiest men on the face of the earth (for obvious reasons).

He's overated as a singer, and this Mississippian doesn't even consider him Country. Sounds like he had a loose mamma too. Poor Tim.

He sings overwrought pop music with a twang. He hit the music lottery. He's not smart enough to realize lightning won't strike twice in his direction.

If he is 38, then, according to this, his parents had a VCR sometime between 1979 and 1982. VCRs were not cheap back then.

And Bill Clinton watched black churches burn when he was a kid.

"She worked two or three jobs at a time," McGraw told The Associated Press in 2004. "I can remember being 11, 12, 13 years old and getting up at 12 o'clock at night and my mom sitting at the kitchen table with the bills spread out everywhere and not even knowing I was there with her head down crying. And then the next day the VCR being gone. It's stuff you grow up with, but you learn a lot from that."

I don't want to sound mean, but doesn't this have all the makings of a country song?

Well their are millions of Americans who still think Clinton was a great president.

It really is difficult for me to believe how sorry many people in our country have become. If one supports a lying, traitorous, scumbag piece of manure for president, then they must have some things in common with him.

I don't know why, but my hubby has despised the music of both of them since around 2000. I don't remember them saying anything political back then, but hubby started turning the channel every time their music came on the radio or on tv. He cannot stomach listening to them. Maybe he knew back then that they were Clinton lovers.

Sounds like a Clinton whopper. When I was 13 or 14, my mother bought a VCR (it was a brand new phenomenon in MS. had to be in LA as well. Beta was one option. My mother bought VHS.) for me so I would quit skipping school to watch soap operas. If Tim is 38, then he is a few years older than I am. If his Mama bought a VCR when he was 11, 12, or 13, then she was spending a lot of money for the time. The story just doesn't ring true. Maybe when he was 15, 16, or 17.
