10. Two thumbs down on that jerk.
I never really heard of this guy before I saw him on 60 minutes last night.

From what I saw and heard, I've got to give him and his fans "two thumbs down."

He thinks women are objects: He's got a song/video, in which he's riding around, pimp style, in a limo and croons to some bimbo: "I got the money, now give me some honey" or some such. I guess he thinks of women as prostitues? And the women who claimed to like that song and his attitude, well, that was a pathetic show, "ladies."

Despite claiming to be a patriot, Mr. Keith disrespects the flag by putting an image of it on his guitar.

He's a vampire, in that he got rich by exploiting the murders that some group -- which group that was, I still don't know -- carried out in september, 2001. He also gets rich by exploiting the military, who are out fighting and dying, while he lives in luxury.

I also think his fans are right-wing thugs. The Taliban song, about America being willing to stick their boot up foreigner's asses, was pretty sick, as far as whipping up hatred. The reaction of the fans at a concert where he sang that song was even worse. There are some really scary Americans out there.

Oh, and what a tough guy (not) by imposing the picture of the Dixie Chick with Saddam. I found it frightening that he (a bully who tries to be a big tough guy) would sic his rabid fans on a female singer. Is he trying to appeal to the woman-beater crowd? Again, he totally disrespects women.

In short, the interview left me with the impression that he is an ignorant bully.
