He has all but endorsed same-sex marriage

"That whole gay issue thing, that's never bothered me," Keith told CMT Insider correspondent Allison DeMarcus. "I've never seen what that affects and [why] anybody should care - and they never do affect me."

He continued, "First of all, we're going to stop somebody from getting a marriage license because they're gay? You won't stop them from living together, so what have you accomplished? ... Wasting a lot of money here and a lot of time that could be spent working on this deficit that we're under ... I never saw the reasoning behind getting in people's personal lives."

Keith did express some reservations about gays and women in the military but concluded: "As long as females and the gays and the soldiers are all killers and ready to fight people off ... get 'em!"

Ten years ago, Keith might have been run out of town like the Dixie Chicks for his live-and-let-live attitude. But today, I can imagine his record sales not plummeting because of this.

Anyway, his comments aren't so surprising after all: Keith is a Democrat who has publicly supported Obama.
