Toby Keith: ‘Black Society’ Thinks Obama ‘Talks, Acts and Carries Himself As A Caucasian’

Country singer Toby Keith, who is on a media blitz promoting his pro-lynching movie, Beer For My Horses, said during a radio interview with Glenn Beck today that he believes “black society” will pull for Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL), even though “they think in the back of their mind that…he talks, acts and carries himself as a Caucasian”:

KEITH: I think that the black people would say he don’t talk, act, or carry himself as a black person.

BECK: What does that even mean?

KEITH: I don’t know what that means, but I’m saying that’s what I think that they would say. Even though the black society would pull for him, I still think that they think in the back of their mind that the only reason that he is in is because he talks, acts and carries himself as a Caucasian.

When did Toby Keith become an expert about what “black society” thinks?

:crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

There! :D

It takes a lot to sound and look dumber than Glen Dreck...congrats Toby...you once again have proven that evolution can regress.

Steve Earl, Willie Nelson, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood, The Dixie Chicks, Martina Mcbride do.

:puke:

I'm actually glad he didn't take his own advice in "Should've Been a Cowboy".

Cash, Haggard, Jennings, Coe, Hank Sr. et al.

The only modern Country singer worth a damn is Hank III.

I just ran this through babelfish's "complete fucking idiot-speak to English" translator:

He meant to say that black people couldn't possibly relate to someone who is intelligent, well-educated, well-spoken, and successful.
Obviously, they'd rather vote for the white guy over someone like that.

:sarcasm:

This is a disgusting racist thing to say.

I think Obama gets to decide who he is and how he wants to "come off". This stuff infuriates me.

Whose business is it how he carries himself? No one, black or white can decide what color he "acts." :mad: :mad: :mad:

*argh*

Toby Keith is a racist dipshit douchenozzle.

He really should STFU.

Michelle Bernard, president of the Independent Women's Forum, said: "I want to go back to the point you made about whether or not Obama is an Oreo, because if Barack Obama is an Oreo, then every member of this generation of African-Americans is an Oreo, because we stand on the shoulders of the people who fought for our rights, and all of us say that you cannot blame 'the man' or white racism for everything that ails the black community."

The guys that stood up and heckled Obama for not representing the black community to their satisfaction seem to have felt the same way. Are *their* concerns well founded, founded at all? Are they correct in their points of view? Or are they Toby Keith fans?

:eyes:

:dem:

than toby fucking keith.

Durring the election he made a speech at Morgan which is a black college. They threw Oreo Cookies at him. After the election he tried tried to get down with the homies on a radio show and that alienated white voters. Maryland is Blue once again. Frankly black voters are going to have to give black candidates room to reach out to white voters. Just like white voters give white candidates room to reach out to black voters. They have to realize that America is ready for Obama. I don't think we'll ever be ready for some gangsta thug mo fo from da hood.

guarantee on KO's show last week that the "Obama isn't black enough" bullshit would be flung out by the radical right? Fuck, I didn't think it would happen this fast...
