Looks like toby and willie been smoking some major gonja if he thinks obama is the best canidate for the job. HOLY CRAP BURN ALL HIS CD's:mad:

[hunter1hall]

just used em to tighten my groups with the bow. Man do cds explode when hit with an arrow. He and the dixie chicks. boo

[KY_Fried]

I'll never understand some people. His music is still the same as it was before you found out he supports Obama. You might as well burn all the rest of your CDs and DVDs because I assure you most of the artists/actors on them are about as liberal as it gets.

[chadman3_25]

The reason i said it was because of him saying he is the best canidate for the job. Im not saying he isn't patriotic i am saying he sucks at deciding who is a great canidate for this country. Obama is about as full of **** as my new 14 week old puppy

It was a joke. Didnt waste my time or money shooting up cds.

[Jughead]

i dont get all of this obama hype,.. :(

[finelydeerhunting]

Ask any Obama supporter to give you an answer as to WHY they are voting for him.

Tell them they CANNOT use:

"change"
or
"another 4 years of Bush"

They will not be able to give you 1 reason.


I have a thread going on a local county board, 26 replies in, and NOBODY, NOBODY has given a reason, other than the two listed above.

So I ask them. Bush is gone, so you're not getting another 4 years of him, but WHAT CHANGE??

All Obama can say is "Change, that's not Change". However, he never says what HE will change.

I am very afraid of what this man will do to this country if he is elected......



**Oh, and from what I've heard about Toby Keith's saying that, it was either that, or be declared racist with the way the interview was going. He was at an open mouth, insert foot part.

[perrymax]

Obama's "change" means change American culture! This is what these people really want. It looks like they may be getting it done if Keith is on his side. He has always kinda represented the culture they hate.

Ky will elect McCain by double digits anyway. I just hope Pa, Oh, Fl, Mi and Wis people understand.

[bowhunter08]

Heard today that McCain was up in Oh and Pa, and Fl if i the news i got is correct. That is what i heard Sean Hannity say this afternoon.

The thing about it is I don't want anyone whom I pay to listen or watch thier serveices tell me whats the best way to vote. They use thier star power to push a political message. Hence I as well as other Americans refuse to use thier products after they get political. I actually have a hard time believing that Huffington Post crap though. Look at the Fued he had with the Dixie Chics over what they said. I could be wrong though but its the way I feel. I just say thanks but no thanks. I would shoot up tk cd's if I had any. Might even run over them after that with my truck.

bPCould'nt agree more, I wish the celebs would just keep their political pieholes shut and stick to what they know

[GSP]

BINGO!

Just because you host a TV/radio show or you are a recording artist, you are NOT the voice of reason.

[AteUp]

Could'nt agree more, I wish the celebs would just keep their political pieholes shut and stick to what they know

Amen. That's what I like about Kidd Rock. Here's some good Kidd Rock quotes:

On politics in his music: "I don't really throw my politics around because at the end of the day, I don't really feel comfortable with people listening to me and my views and opinions on things. I'm really not that educated in areas like politics or world business. I have my own opinions on what is going on in my community, and I'll talk with my family and friends about it. But I should not be the person you are getting your advice from."

“Why is everybody trying to stop the war? George Bush ain't been
saying, 'You all, make shitty records.' Politicians and music don't mix.
It's like whisky and wine. Musicians ought to stay out of it.”

“I do not believe that artists or actors and people should be out there like voicing their full-blown opinions on politics because, let's face it, at the end of the day, I'm not that smart of a guy. I play Rock 'n' Roll, that's what I do. Who would you trust to make your decisions, Donald Rumsfeld or the Dixie Chicks?”

On the most eye-grabbing of the many eye-grabbing toys at his rural estate outside Detroit, a 1969 Dodge Charger - a.k.a. the General Lee - used in the TV show The Dukes of Hazzard: "That is an official hillbilly item. When you get money and you're a hillbilly, what are you going to buy? A new house? Are you going to take the family on vacation or put some money into savings? F**k that, I'm buying the General Lee.' "

"On a scale of the United States, the Hollywood influence on what comes out, that's not the majority views of across the country. What we read in Us Weekly or People magazine, or Entertainment Tonight, it's not what the majority of the country is thinking."

"You know, when I started I liked Big Macs and Budweiser and I still like Big Macs and Budweiser."

"I am happy to make money. I want to make more money, make more music, eat Big Macs and drink Budweisers."

"My shows aren't about trying to save some place, because I don't feel that's the right venue for it. That's my politics right there: Don't bring politics to my shows."

"Antiquing. When I'm in different towns, I like to go to antique stores. I love to find old brass lamps with bald eagles on 'em -- they're impossible to get. So maybe if you print this, someone will bring some lamps to the backstage door when we go on tour, and we can work something out." -- about his hobby of antiquing, Blender magazine

"Gretchen Wilson's pretty good. One time she had a drinking party at her place in Nashville -- a hot-tub party. The next day, she says, 'You know, I woke up this morning and your Confederate-flag boxers were hanging on my Grammy.'" -- when asked which famous friends were the best drinkers, Blender magazine

"I was at the White House drinking Beam and Coke, shooting the s#@t with Rumsfeld, when Bush came by and gave me a five like we were on Seven Mile and Van Dyke in Detroit. I don't care if people like Bush or not. I got some (expletive) dap from the president." -- about hanging out with Donald Rumsfeld, Penthouse magazine


"I didn't want to go out and change anything. I just wanted to make the music that was part of my background, which was rock and blues and hip-hop."


"I know every Skynyrd and about all Johnny Cash songs."

"I never said I wanted to be around for a long time. I always said I wanted to be here for a good time."

[mrdux]

I've got my doubts since this came from a socialist love-fest at the Huffington Post. He said Obama was the best Democrap candidate. I didn't see where he said he was voting for him. He's probably just another Nashville/Hollywierd moron riding the fence hoping he can get by with it and keep his $$ flowing in.

I wouldn't know who he was if it wasn't for Ford Truck commercials. My taste has always been 60s and 70s classic rock. I just hate it when the media thinks actors/musicians opinion means crap anyway. It doesn't to me!!

[KY_Fried]

I agree 110% that entertainers should keep their politics to themselves but at the same time if I like a particular song/movie I'm not going to suddenly hate it because the people involved say something I disagree with politically. As long as they keep it out of their performance I couldn't care less.
Kid Rock definitely has the right attitude though. I think one of the main reasons he has so much success is because he doesn't get all political. He has a lot of fans on both sides of the fence and doesn't alienate either side at all. I wish more people in his line of work would learn from that.

[Manzanita]

I wouldn't know who he was if it wasn't for Ford Truck commercials.

Those commercials used to crack me up. His American flag guitar...

His Takamine American flag guitar.

[reivertom]

I am going to check this out further. The Huffington folks lie alot. If it's true, He's DONE as far as I'm concerned.

I always thought him and his "music" sucked. Isn't this the same who guy wrote such revolutionary lyrics as "we'll put a boot in your ass"? I would hate Toby Keith, and the crap he makes that some people call music, just as much if he were to donate 10 million dollars to McCain.

To me, there's nothing quite as sorry as a millionaire studio creation trying to pass themselves off as a hard working, salt of the earth, common man American.

Not to defend his alleged statement, but the guy is a former oil worker as well as a semi pro ball player. Doesn't get much more working class than working on a derrick, does it?

I mean, he coulda been a janitor..would that make him more legit?

[KY_Fried]

I don't care if he had every job ever featured on Dirty Jobs, I still think his music sucks.

[buckfever]

Hmmm. . . he said that Obama was the best democratic candidate since Bill Clinton, and you guys are screaming boycott. I don't understand what he said that has you so enraged?

I'm just wondering who you thought were better democratic candidates since Clinton? John Kerry? Al Gore? Both of those guys were just as liberal as Obama. :confused:

The only democrat that I can think of that one could argue was a better candidate than Obama is Joe Lieberman.

I can't help but chuckle at the logic behind some of these posts. None of the posters seem to mind giving their unsolicited political opinions on this forum, but heaven help the "celebrities" who express their own views. I'm wondering where the kyhunting crowd got all this political expertise. :rolleyes:

Seems to me to me there's a big difference b/t running around forcing people to listen to your political views when the audience is there to listen to your music or interview you about a movie (see Streisand and Dixie Chicks), and this particular instance when it appears that Keith was asked about his thoughts on Obama during an interview.

Hell, Art's even calling him a "sorry" fraud pretending to have working class roots. He doesn't even know anything about the guy, and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't make those comments to his face. :eek:

[Manzanita]

Heh. Well, there's one Toby Keith fan.

[tinpoint]

thats 2 Toby Keith fans,I did'nt buy his music before,but I sure will now!

[buckfever]

Heh. Well, there's one Toby Keith fan.

Naw, I'm really not. I like a few of his songs, but he's a little too pop-country for my tastes.

I just can't figure out what he's done to piss off so many guys. :D

Hey Ballard,

I think you've discovered a political topic that we agree on 100% ... well 98% ... I'm not much of a Lieberman fan.

Must be getting pretty cold in hades!!! j/k ;):D:cool:

Seriously, haven't heard much from you lately ... you been doing any early deer hunting yet??? any pictures to share???

[raktrakr]

My gripe wasnt about TK, it was celebs in general. Matt Damon, Madonna? Come on now, I dont think they even live in the states so thier opinion is better kept to themselves. How about that wanker at the MTV awards, if we want his opinion he'll have to lose the 80s hair band garb for anyone to take him seriously. Before these celebs shoot off at the mouth about how great a candidate is, they might want to compare the tax bracket they're in with the cut off point of said candidate's tax hike

You know back in 2002 i was working in Lancaster and actually read the herald (One of the few) and i remember quite well an article ranking Lexington in the top five of a certain category. ART do you remember it?
Just wonderin where you fit in

Off topic -


I actually grew up in Lexington, and went to jr high/high school there. My sis still lives there.

Personally, I don't much care for it, after living here in Louisville for 13 years. Although, Lexington does have three redeeming things going for it:

1 - They don't have our mayor..

2 - They have a LOT more sidewalks in neighborhoods, so kids can walk down the street without fear of being run down. That's a BIG difference that you don't see much in Louisville, especially outside of the actual old "city limits".

3 - They have UK. U of L fans just don't understand that U of L doesn't exist outside of Jefferson and the bordering counties. It's difficult to explain it to them sometimes...

Uhh what?


Again just making a comment trying to stir a little humor and you accuse me of attacking you again. Do you remember the article is all i asked. I figured if a .25 wit like me from SWern Ky could remember it someone like you would thats all.

You expect me to remember a HL article from 2002?:confused: Why don't you tell us what it is and I'll decide what your intent was. You asked where I fit in with respect to the article, so.......spit it out.

[tenntucky]

It's interesting that when he does a comparison that gives him the opinion that Obama is the best candidate..he only includes "in the democratic party" another case of party blinders...."I'm a democrat cause my dad told me to be" syndrome. Things were goin real good around here until the Dems got the house and then the sabotage started in my opinion...down hill from there in a big hurry. I'ts hard to git anything done when they fight every move you make just to bolster their cause for an upcoming election.

[grouser68]

Toby and Kid Rock were supposed to be in Kandahar this month, we have been watching and hoping they will be there on a non mission day so we could send some of the younger guys to the concert. After this news, I may want to go myself!:D

[grouseguy]

TK has been smart enough to play to his primarily Republican base of listeners, but he personally has always been liberal and I heard him on the Bob & Tom show state that he was in fact a registered Democrat.

He just understands the demographic that pays his freight and plays towards that group, much like the Neo-Con faction of the Republican party. Think about it!!!

So.........He's a fake just like the Democrat's candidates. He puts on a phony act to get what he wants.........Sounds like Obama.

Maybe Tobey needs to start producing and marketing RAP, so he can profit from the Democrat base.

Once upon a time, on a farm in Virginia , there was a little red hen who
scratched
about the barnyard until she uncovered quite a few grains of wheat.



She called all of her Democrat neighbors together and said, 'If we plant
this wheat,
we shall have bread to eat. Who will help me plant it?'



'Not I,' said the cow.



'Not I,' said the duck.



'Not I,' said the pig.



'Not I,' said the goose.



'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen, and so she
did. The wheat
grew very tall and ripened into golden grain.



'Who will help me reap my wheat?' asked the little red hen.



'Not I,' said the duck.



'Out of my classification,' said the pig.



'I 'd lose my seniority,' said the cow.



'I'd lose my unemployment compensation,' said the goose.



'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen, and so she
did.


At last it came time to bake the bread.



'Who will help me bake the bread?' asked the little red hen.



'That would be overtime for me,' said the cow.



'I'd lose my welfare benefits,' said the duck.



'I'm a dropout and never learned how,' said the pig.



'If I'm to be the only helper, that's

discrimination,' said the goose.



'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen.



She baked five loaves and held them up for all of her neighbors to see.

They wanted some and, in fact, demanded a share. But the little red hen

said, 'No, I shall eat all five loaves.'



'Excess profits!' cried the cow. (Nancy Pelosi)



'Capitalist leech!' screamed the duck. (Barbara Boxer)



'I demand equal rights!' yelled the goose. (Jesse Jackson)



The pig just grunted in disdain. (Ted Kennedy)



And they all painted 'Unfair!' picket signs and marched around and

around the little red hen, shouting obscenities.



Then the Farmer Obama came. He said to the little red hen, 'You must

not be so greedy.'



'But I earned the bread,' said the little red hen.



'Exactly,' said Barack the farmer. 'That is what makes our free

enterprise system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can earn as much

as he wants. But under our modern government regulations, the productive

workers must divide the fruits of their labor with those who are lazy

and idle.'



And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen, who

smiled and clucked, 'I am grateful, for now I truly understand.'



But her neighbors became quite disappointed in her. She never again

baked bread because she joined the 'party' and got her bread free. And

all the Democrats smiled. 'Fairness' had been established.



Individual initiative had died, but nobody noticed; perhaps no one

cared...so long as there was free bread that 'the rich' were paying
for.




EPILOGUE



Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs.



Hillary got $8 million for hers.



That's $20 million for the memories from two people, who for eight years,

repeatedly testified, under oath, that they couldn't remember anything.



IS THIS A GREAT BARNYARD OR WHAT?

[RLWEBB]

It's just my opinion, but I don't see how anyone could stand to listen to TK sing. I mean, that kind of music just stinks and I find it laughable that someone actually likes it and that he can make a living singing that crap. Again, that's just my opinion.

Reminds me of an old Far Side cartoon. I may not be remembering it exactly but one frame included a doorway and a sign that said, "Welcome to Heaven. Here's your harp." In the next frame another doorway and another sign said, "Welcome to Hell. Here's your accordian." :D

ok guys,in all honesty,would you feel the same way about celebs giving there political opinion if T.K. would have said he thought McCain was the best person for the job?

Yep, I would. As I said earlier, I can't stand his music, those stupid ford commercials he was in, etc. This is all just my opinion, but I can't stand country music, or what it has become these days, at all.

Celebritys can say whatever they want, support whoever they want. But they are not acting in there own best interest when they get involved in politics. Basically the poles are tied now so America is split 50/50. If you are an entertainer you want to have the largest pool of people you can buying what you are selling. If you go and piss off half of your fans by saying "I support candidate X" then you are screwing yourself. Savy entertainers will not make there political views public.
