Todd Or Toby? Who's Got The Bigger B....

Could you imagine if Democrat turned Independent but really a Republican Toby Keith had the balls to write something as politically astute as Todd Snider's "Mission Accomplished". The song is on Sniders E.P. Peace Queer and it and the rest highlight Snider's best gifts. That's been Snider's genius on his recent albums. He never comes out and says that so and so has been a terrible President or Politician, because he lands his blows at a glance and laced with humor.
Peace Queer also has a startling revamped remake of "Fortunate Son", with Patty Griffin's backing vocals taking the song somewhere that even Fogerty never imagined. Could anyone picture the former Southern Democrat Outlaw wannabe putting something like this on one of his albums?
