I don't dig Toby Keith's politics, but...
His song "I'm Never Smoking Weed With Willie Again" is pretty funny!

2. I'm sure he would agree with all his repub friends
that he should be in jail for life for smoking pot.

Another repub hypocrite

4. I agree, he probably does,
But he politically supports people who want pot smokers in jail, and want to revoke the medical licenses of doctors in CA who prescribe it for medical uses.

I'm sure since the drug laws mostly hurt the poor and minorities, it doesn't apply to him so he doesn't care.

6. I'd like to see a duet between Merle Haggard's fist and Toby's face
Merle should kick the shit out of that fake hat act cocksucker for helping to ruin country music.

8. Could have, but probably wouldn't have
Johnny's cool and all, but he's never been as virulently anti-Nashville as Merle, Willie, and Waylon are and were. I remember a quote in a book on country rock from Waylon where he said "Garth Brooks favorite band is Journey. I think that's all I need to say about him (chuckles)."

9. Ok, here's where I separate myself from the pukes
I think it's funny as hell! Look, I can despise someone politically, yet still enjoy some of the things they do. I admit, I like Bruce Willis movies. I though Heart's War was incredible.

See, I can do this, but take a repuke who has been a Martin Sheen fan all his life, and as soon as he finds out Sheen is against *'s illegal war, what does he do? Sends out a ridiculous Martin Sheen loves France e-mail "joke" every other day. Fuckkin' repukes. I hate them all!!!!

He's always a great guest on Letterman, too.

after his show in West Palm.This was when he first got signed and I asked him if he wanted to jam with my band.Anybody want to guess what his response was?Clarence Clemmons wasn't "too big" to jam with a local band but these country stars are,i guess
