Well, at least as long as conservatives are kept from power.

Funny, I don't listen to politicians for morals, on either side of the aisle.

My bad for leaving room for error. There are a few exceptions, both negative country and positive rap, but very few. Hardly worth mentioning, but I should have known someone would. By the way, the song about "some gals murdering an abusive husband", was "Goodbye Earl" by the Dixie chicks. You know, the Dixie chicks, the Bush hating leftist liberal morons? Huh, wonder if there's a connection.... But to think anyone would think that the overwhelming majority of country music doesn't have a more positive moral message than the overwhelming majority of rap music is either being intellectually dishonest, is flat out lying, or is a complete and total idiot. Which one are you?

Sorry but I am not impressed by a "mansion" in hillbilly country.

Does this look like a "doublewide"?

Hank Williams, Jr.'s House (Bing Maps) - Virtual Globetrotting

'Ol Hank Jr. could by or sell you lefties with the stroke of a pen........
Daddy's money has been very good to him. if Sr. wasn't also Papa, Jr. would have died from whiskey and drugs long ago before he ever made a dent in Nashville.

I don't want to hear about his talent. There's better talent performing on the sidewalk in front of Tootsie's than most of the crap on the stage at the CMAs.

Pretty counts for a lot more than talent does these days.

Jr. spends a lot of his time on his ranch in Montana shooting rifles at a cast iron buffalo. His home in Nashville is just one house.

He has multiple homes. You know - like Gore and Kerry.

One doesn't have to have "talent" to be successful. That's proven every day by those microphone-eating rappers who wear their hats backwards, have baggy pants, always wear sunshades, and gold teeth.

Not familiar with "tooties",...but apparently those who perform there don't sing country. And,...if they are so damn good, why are performing for free.?

I guess if ya wanna judge talent by pay-scale, Justin Bieber's a bigger talent than Billie Holiday.

Thanls bit no thanks to that concept! I've heard singers in the back rooms of shot & beer joints that put anyone at the CMAs to shame.

Apparently Hank does have multiple homes. One is in near Paris/Buchanan, Tennessee, and another smaller house in Montana. Wasn't aware that he owned a home in Nashville, but there is a cabin on his property near Paris/Buchanan, Tennessee which is mentioned on the website previously linked.
