Toby Keith at It Again

Goddamn, The South! Y'know, we really do try to cut you some slack – seriously, we do – but you just make detesting you so easy sometimes.

During a July 30 interview on talking face Glenn Beck's radio broadcast, Toby Keith, Oklahoman and the musical genius behind the hit pro-lynching anthem "Beer for My Horses," told Beck that he thinks Barack Obama is highly successful with black Americans because "he don't talk, act or carry himself like a black person."

Glenn - No dear, we are NOT past it. And just because you don't know any racists doesn't mean there aren't any. Hell, I don't know any billionaires and I know they exist.

Toby - How DO black people carry themselves? Plus, it's "He doesn't talk, act or carry himself like a black person.” Please use correct grammar when you stereotype. THANKS!

I cannot give this fool any thought; He "don't talk" like a Black person, and carries himself like a Caucasian. Well according to his own stereotypical beliefs Toby Keith "don't talk" like a Caucasian.

And… why are they discussing race relations with Toby Keith in the first place?

Btw… I just love how a lot of people think America isn't racist becuz Obama (a biracial, black male) might become president.
