Toby Keith voted for Bush twice. His father and grandfather were Democrats, but he votes Republican and did concerts to raise money for the Republicans in 2004.
Toby Keith makes $$$ off the corpses of 4250 dead in Iraq. He is about as Unpatriotic as it gets.
You throw a beer at me, flip me off and wait and see what happens....... enough said.
