Wilson mocked the voters. "'You elitists with your geography, maps, spelling,'" Ali joined in. "'Yeah, your reading. Your geography. Knowing other countries. Sipping your latte.'" "All those lines on the map,'" Wilson added as Lemon continued his uncontrollable laughter. "'Only them elitists know where Ukraine is,'" Ali said as Wilson was also laughing. "Sorry, I apologize," Ali jokingly said. "It was Rick’s fault. I blame Rick." "That was good. Sorry," Lemon said as he tried to regain his composure.

I hope ya'll enjoy.

I've posted this before and want to post it again. It was my first try at Windows Movie Maker. I hope you enjoy it.

Democrats seem the "squirrely" ones sung about in a concert by Toby Keith on Country Music Television tonight. Merle Haggard called in the show, requesting his old song, "The Fightin' Side of Me." It was the original 'Angry American' song. The lyrics seem to fit, some of our own countrymen:

It's time to remember

Amercians were angry after the atrocities that were carried out by terrorists on September 11, 2001. Americans wants those responsible to be hunted down and punished. But that was nearly three years ago. How quickly Americans forget. Today, the dean of the Iraqi Law School and her husband were murdered. She was shot and her husband’s throat was slit in their own home. A car bomb went off in Baghdad and a three-year-old girl was killed along with two other innocent people. Kim Sun-il, a South Korean translator who publicly pleaded for his life, was beheaded. Are you angry yet?...

Toby Keith's Courtesy Of The Red White And Blue video, a tribute to our military, past and present. And here is another one of his, American Soldier(Plays in Windows Media Player; www.cmt.com has realplayer options at their site).

Did anyone else just see Toby singing Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue? What a great day, from W in Iraq, to this. The crowd went nuts. I can't believe that CBS would actually show this. I guess the NFL realizes their fans sympathies lie.

Courtesy Of The Red,White And BlueCBS 60 Minutes II Oct. 29, 2003 Toby Keith is not only one of the biggest stars in country music -- he may also be one of the most talked about, and argued about. He has won legions of new fans by writing songs that are defiant, and defiantly patriotic. But not everyone has liked what they heard – and he’s attracted a few high-profile enemies, including the Dixie Chicks’ lead singer, Natalie Maines. None of that, however, has dimmed his luster. Next week, he is a favorite to win Entertainer of the Year at...

[Toby Keith] was booked in May to sing his patriotic anthem on an ABC-TV special set for a live July 4 broadcast. Asked to open the show with "Courtesy Of The Red, White And Blue," Toby was glad to do it. It made sense to kick off an Independence Day program with a song that had tapped into what a lot of Americans were feeling and it would serve as a tribute to his father. But something unexpected happened. The host of the program, ABC network newsman Peter Jennings, decided he didn't like the song, and he pulled the plug...

Everybody’s tight-lipped about the surprise guests at Monday’s (April 7) CMT Flameworthy 2003 Video Music Awards, but here’s what we know: The last time Flameworthy co-host Toby Keith was interviewed by CMT, he was asked what he’d be performing at the awards show. He said he might share one of his bus songs (such as “Only the Best-Looking Tuna Gets to Be Star-Kissed”), and he thought he’d perhaps write something for the occasion. Of course, with “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue” up for two nominations -- or three, if … well, you know. Keith is going to make...

War Support Songs Invade Airwaves Antiwar Songs Played Less SAN DIEGO -- Radio listeners may be hearing more songs in support of the war, than opposition, 10News reported. "I like Iraq's chances of winning the war than hearing an antipatriotic song or un-American song on a country station," country radio station KSON 97.3 program director John Dibeck said. Dibeck was recently forced to deal with the issue head on when the lead singer of the Dixie Chicks, Natalie Maines, said to a London audience, "Just so you know, we're ashamed the president of the United States is from Texas." All...

Had this emailed to me, thought I'd share it. ~ 4MB, Windows Media Player.

I like big cars, big boats, big motorcycles, big houses, and big campfires. I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some governmental stooge with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts for squirting out babies. Guns don't make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball game. I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, which is why there are...
