American country singer Toby Keith says he won't apologize for supporting U.S. war efforts just hours before performing at the annual Nobel Peace Prize Concert.
Keith says he supports American troops who "fight evil" abroad and that he stands by President Barack Obama's decision to send more troops to Afghanistan. Obama is this year's Nobel Peace Prize laureate.

Keith has been an Obama supporter all along.
Keith came out in support of obama, he is nothing but a fence sitter.
Keith’s a good guy and a great supporter of the U.S. Military, but he has a screw loose when it comes to who he supports politically.
“...we’ll put a boot up your ass, it’s the American way..
...brought to you courtesy of the red, white and blue...”
raised by yellow dog working class peckerwoods who have been ignorant for generations since FDR...he is nice about the military but not real bright on the facts..
*i can say this with impunity
The two seem diametrically opposed, politically - could it have been an attempt to soften his image?

Don’t think thats true. He wasn’t thrilled with MCCain but said he would probably vote for him because of Palin....indicating that he likes Palin.
Link cites why its rumored that he supported Obama.
Haha. Toby Keith was invited to perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert? That’s hilarious.
“We’ll put a boot in your ass, its there American way! Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list. The Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist ... there’s gonna be Hell when you hear mother freedom start ringing her bell. You’ll think the whole wide world was raining down on you. Brought to you courtesy of the Red, White and Blue.”
Somebody’s ass is getting fired for that one.

Ditto - he’s one of those idiot entertainer types who isn’t smart enough to realize he thinks conservative, but votes liberal dem

First Obama’s belligerent rhetoric. Then a singer he brought along sings glory to war. Must mean there is trouble in paradise. Democrat internal polls are not looking good, especially in light of the butt whooping VA and NJ.
Thanks for the link and for clearing that up for me.
Toby Keith who? Stopped listening to Toby when he came out in support of Obama wau before the election.
Toby Keith supports the troops.
How in the world he supports O is a mystery. That said, peer pressure is alive and well in the entertainment industry.
Nobody believes for a moment Obama meant a single thing he said in yesterday’s speech, other than apologizing for America’s sins. Independents are fleeing the Democrats en masse and this is a desperate attempt to slow it down.
