From a Yahoo! Comment: To Sum Up the Matter re Toby and Krystal Keith...

I see that most of the comments here (that is, in the article to which the title links) are proving my point--that is, that she's nothing more than a nepotist who people care about only because of her dad. I honestly couldn't care less about her weight (That's her business, as far as I'm concerned.). As far as her personality, that's another matter. She couldn't be more or less than a jerk than her dad (From what I saw on TMZ, some people gave the heads up that he is abusive to others as well--see "Toby Keith Opens Can of Whoopass -- On Tape!" Having been through abuse myself, I believe that they would have no reason to lie about that--and this isn't the only place that I've read horror stories about him [e.g., I'll link you to one--L Kay's comment, by the way--Google around [if you don't believe me that is].).

Then came the way that I was abusively treated by Krystal Keith--I got treated like Hell for suggesting that she, as a public figure, use her own name, not have her dad as a producer, not be on his record label, etc. if she wanted to make her own name and career in her own right--and I was one of the first people to follow her on Twitter (Again, too easy. "@KrystalKeith". Follow her at your own risk, and follower beware!). She said that she didn't have time for people like me, joined one of her fans in accusing me of being a Dixie Chicks fan, and later proceeded to block me like I had done something wrong.

Don't even try to give constructive criticism about her as a public figure--she is just like her dad, and that is neither compliment nor something that I want others to learn the hard way.

[PS If you couldn't read L Kay's comment:

["When my little brother was playing baseball against TK's son's baseball team, a few boys went over to him after the game and asked for his autograph. He took one of them by the head and pushing him away. He told the kids to get away. I know he probably gets this all around norman, but he's not that bad. In fact, whenever the two teams would play, my father would go stand on the field with him and chat. Sure, his daughter was a little snotty from (personal experiences & stories), but he's just a normal, scruffy-looking guy who drives a H2 and who happens to live in a huge house on beautiful land."

[By the way, to L Kay, shoving a kid by the head is never acceptable; and anyone who would shove a kid by the head ought to have Social Services or the police called on him or her.]

Open Letter To Toby and Krystal Keith (Now That I've Had Time To Think)

First of all, I'm surprised that I ever gave people like you time. That's exactly what you want--time in and control over people's lives. "[A]lthough [you] knew God, [you] did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in [your] thoughts, and [your] foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, [you] became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things." (My emphasis is added here.).

You exalt yourselves above God--how dare you! And you have contention with me for what? Nothing but for that I suggested that Krystal not ride on her dad's coattails if she truly wanted a music career of her own. In both ways, I (so to speak) bit--I gave more celebrity than you even deserve, and I tried to help Krystal in particular get more celebrity--and shame on me for doing so. I played your game--I bit! And it backfired on me--the more help that I gave a fool, the more hurt that I got.

Celebrity is meant to glorify G-d, not to be used as a means to selfish ends. But go ahead and like your girls who drink beer, "[g]et [d]runk [a]nd [b]e [s]omebody", [cry] for [yourselves]--you will, in the direction that you're going, never see Wayman Tisdale again--you will not see him in Heaven. "Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you!  Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days."

Wayman was taken from you, you sick and vile family, because "[t]he righteous perishes, [a]nd no man [like you] takes it to heart; [m]erciful men are taken away, [w]hile no one considers [t]hat the righteous is taken away from evil." Wayman, from what you yourselves testified in the public forum, was a witness to you. Yet if Moses came to you, you would not hear him. After all, "‘If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.’" You will, therefore, not be persuaded on the Day of the Resurrection--when Wayman and others who are truly asleep in Christ shall rise again!

Take your "[b]eers [a]fter [w]ork" and dance with your daddy--that's all that you'll be getting! "Awake, you drunkards, and weep; [a]nd wail, all you drinkers of wine, [b]ecause of the new wine, [f]or it has been cut off from your mouth." Have you not heard? "[H]e said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here without a wedding garment?’ And he was speechless."

Therefore, "Woe to him who says to wood, ‘Awake!’ To silent stone, ‘Arise! It shall teach!’ Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,Yet in it there is no breath at all.“But the Lord is in His holy temple. Let all the earth keep silence before Him.”" Have you not made idols of wood and stone--for instance, your precious guitars and concert venues--to exalt yourselves--again, have you not "changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man"?!

And you use the Name of God to do gross and vile perversities! "Therefore the Lord said: “Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths [a]nd honor Me with their lips, [b]ut have removed their hearts far from Me, [a]nd their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men, [t]herefore, behold, I will again do a marvelous work [a]mong this people, [a] marvelous work and a wonder; [f]or the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, [a]nd the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden.”"

One of your gross and vile perversities is this (and I must add that I am very disappointed that someone who I follow on Twitter would retweet this--I even almost unfollowed them because they would retweet your perversities.):

"@TobyKeithMusic: please RT - good cause. good karma!"

"[G]ood karma"?! "Wisdom calls aloud outside; [s]he raises her voice in the open squares. She cries out in the chief concourses, [a]t the openings of the gates in the city [s]he speaks her words: “How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? For scorners delight in their scorning, [a]nd fools hate knowledge.""

Get wisdom before it is too late! "Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly."

Otherwise, you will be going right to Hell with the gods of the Hindus--those who preach karma! Why do I write this to you sick and utter fools, by the way? Read and and figure out why--"‘Please come and hear what the word is that comes from the Lord.’"--lest you remain as "they [who] come to you as people do, [who] sit before [a prophet] as [God's] people, and they hear [his or her] words, but they do not do them; for with their mouth they show much love, but their hearts pursue their own gain."

By the way, you can figure out where the various Scripture verses came from--after all, you have the time and resources to do a BibleGateway search.

Anti-Semitic Country Music? Or Is Country Music Anti Semitic In General?

Watching the ACMs in the past, I "was country when country wasn't cool" and wanted to be a country singer. I left country music after "Honky Tonk University" and its title song was released (I've heard few songs, or maybe even only one song, of country music since then.). Seeing the ACMs mentioned on Twitter, I was hit by this fact: not only am I not country anymore--since "country" isn't really country anymore, anyway, but I never should have been country to begin with. I have rarely--if ever--or even never seen country music make a Pro-Israel stance. I also have never seen the ACM recognize even the 6,000,000 recognized and accounted-for Jewish Holocaust victims--and look at this!

They've had opportunity after opportunity to at least recognize the victims, survivors, and descendants of surviving and non-surviving victims of the Holocaust. They never did!
