Toby Keith Hits Back at Accusation Song Is Pro-Lynching
Friday, August 08, 2008
Toby Keith hit back at a recent blog post that derided his 2003 song "Beer for My Horses" as a pro-lynching anthem.
"The song was a hit and the words 'lynch' and 'racism' has never come up until this moron wrote this blog," he said, according to ContactMusic.
The country singer, 47, was on "The Colbert Report" last month to perform "Beer for My Horses," the popular song that inspired a movie of the same name.
Huffington Post blogger Max Blumenthal called the song an "ode to lynching" and said that "Colbert's studio audience clapped to the beat, blithely unaware that they were swaying to a racially tinged, explicitly pro-lynching anthem that calls for the vigilante-style hanging of car thieves and other assorted evildoers."

Your forgot that we don’t need private property, we don’t need cars, we need to “embrace” diversity and produce $$ to family members of ex-slaves...
You forgot the Global Poverty Tax and the Law of the Sea Treaty that gives the UN the right to oversee our national interests.
Please don’t forget hate crime legislation that does not, by definition, protect straight white males...as they are the “oppressive majority” and do not warrant equal protection under the law.
Did you forget open borders? We need another 100 million third-world citizens with less than 7th-grade educations, according to the Left (and McCain).
The Government doesn’t want you to know this, but other than tech-savvy (largely from India, China or Europe) immigrants with H1B visas...nearly 90% of all green card holders are on public assistance...Mung, Pakistani, Somali, Mexican, etc. all on the DOLE...when clearly, as they are new to the United States thus NEVER HAVE CONTRIBUTED A DIME TO THE FUND THAT FEEDS, CLOTHES, HOUSES and PROVIDES CASH, MEDICAL CARE and EDUCATION to them.
Give nothing = pull from the system...the Liberal Democratic Way.
Whiskey for the men
Beer for the horses
Urinal mints for the liberals
Even though Toby Keith is a democrat, he doesn’t hesitate to criticize his party when they do something stupid or off the wall (which is often!)
Apparently, he’s a rare breed....a conservative democrat.
As you mentioned, he’s very supportive of our troops.
If you ever talk politics with these people they will agree with you and want to buy you a beer until they find out you are Republican. Then they have to spit and want to fight. It's mental retardation or plain ignorance. I just think they watch enough news to be confused. If you ask them they believe they are up on all the latest stuff and have an opinion until you talk about the falling dollar or the idea of winning a war by actually fighting it and really killing the enemy. Then they say the money grubbers are robbing them and can't we all just get along? They are as intellectual as the Dixie Chicks and Britney.
If they don't have a "come to Jesus" moment, they go to the grave stuck on stupid.
Toby is a typical southern democrat. He learned it from his parents who learned it from their parents. It dates back to Roosevelt. Southern democrats don’t even know what the democrats stand for. They just know their daddy was a democrat so therefore they are democrats, too. The sad thing is they don’t believe in anything the democrats of today believe in. They are progun, antiabortion, antigay and very patriotic. They live like Republicans but vote democrat.
I was that way too. Voted democrat until I saw the light with Reagan.
You totally nailed it. They fail to see the corralation between the democrat party and all the things wrong in society today. They have been taught all their lives that Republicans are responsible for all the countrys problems, whether real problems or manufactured problems.
Good for you! I think Reagan changed a lot of southern democrats.
Max Blumenthal is son of “Sid Vicious” Blumenthal, one of the most depraved of the Clintonistas and a master of character assassination. The apple truly does not fall far from this tree (oooh, Max, can you concoct something racist in the apple and tree metaphor?).
Sid Vicious has been a leftist tool of smear-and-fear for decades..... the son apparently learned his lessons well.
btw, Sid Vicious was the one who spread the tale of Monica Lewinsky as “stalker” and then expected Christopher Hitchens to perjure himself when it became a legal matter. Hitchens refused to lie for the Clintonistas, blew the whistle so to speak, and yet Blumenthal and the CLintons will go to their graves believing that THEY are the wronged parties in the matter. They’re all SCUM, Sid and Max included.
