No one I knew while I was in uniform even remotely bore such a countenance as to represent an audience for the goo Greenwood marketed. Trace Adkins, who sang Bury Me At Arlington, is another one. AFAIK neither served a day in uniform. They're carpet baggers selling loyalty elixirs and they're selling quite well.....

You forgot about all the fake religious artists.... I love the old Southpark episode where Cartman starts his own 'Christian Rock' band.... He tells Stan - "No, All you gotta do is find a pop song and substitute 'Jesus' wherever you see the word 'baby' and it's an instant Christian hit". S-o-o-o funny!
