    As a reminder of when America was “great”, maybe there is a Rickey Nelson tribute band around that is not too busy.

      It’s a good joke, but there is no Ramada in Alexandria.

    Too bad that Toby Keith is so stupid he does not realize that he is NOT performing for the country OR the military – he’s going to be performing for Herr Drumpfenfuhrer’s party – the guy who is DETERMINED to drop nukes all over the world and cause many many more of our youth to be maimed and murdered so he can feel all powerful.
