The American Way

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." Keith then added that he thinks "black society" views Obama as a "Caucasian." HE SAID THIS ON LIVE RADIO WITHOUT ANY SHAME! (Listen for yourself up above.)

For a minor but hilarious consolation, listen for when Beck, shocked, demands, "What does that even mean?" and the doofy Keith responds, "Well, I don't know what that means," sounding like a scolded puppy. Oh, Toby Boy, do you know what anything means?
