As the song reflects back to the year 1989! Ummmm... That would put Bob Ritchie aka Kid Rock at the age of 17 or 18 himself. Listen Debbie, I could go on and on about the GOOD things this man Bob Ritchie has done for people all over the world. Check his stats on performing and visiting our troops in the middle east! Oh, and then you may want to check out all the charities he gives to and supports. Needless to say, I think maybe, just maybe some of your rash behavior on judging him on some things may change, I would hope. If not I suggest you keep your comments to yourself and if you do not have anything good to say well then, there's that old phrase - DO NOT SAY NOTHING AT ALL. Thank you.

MERE!!! TOTALLY agree with what y'all had to say! (Mere, i KNEW you'd be here!!!) LOL!One thing the woman forgot, is that Kid Rock is not TEACHING our kids. It's up to PARENTS to teach our kids to be the people they WANT to be. Music is wonderful to listen to and is also an ESCAPE. The woman is looking for publicity, and off the backs of others. GEESH. My 13 year old daughter has more sense than this woman! JADE! MERE!!! TOTALLY agree with what y’all had to say! (Mere, i KNEW you’d be here!!!) LOL!

If you ever actually paid attention to him or his music you would understand that most of those lyrics were from his youth age 17-20- most people weren't PC at that age!He doesn't follow any protocol or need to "fit in" with any crowd, he is himself, tries to do good for the working class and his home state of Michigan. He could care less about politicians, hollywood, etc. Just his son, fans, the soldiers and hard working people! He works hard and earns an honest living- can't say that about most politicians!Meet Mr. Ritchie today and actually speak with him and see if you have the same opinion!

Its not their place to argue subjective opinions. They went after the misrepresentations and straight up fabrications in Palin's book. As they should have.Second, a politician's taste in music is really neither here nor there. But if you want to argue about it, at last get your information straight. Musicians are like fiction writers--just because they create a persona doesn't make them actually THAT persona. Its a persona. It allows them to spout view points and talk about things that would normally be outside the scope of their real lives. Its frankly what art is all about. So whatever Kid Rock says in his lyrics really isn't at issue here. Its totally beside the point. And on top of all that, who cares what he wrote when he was 18 to 25 yrs old? that's the stuff your quoting. He's 40 now, and his work is quite a bit different. If you need to quote him, try quoting something he wrote in the last few years.Third, I take issue with you attacking Kid Rock personally. I don't know the guy, and clearly neither do you. So back off. I could care less if people like his music or not. But as far as those pieces of his personal life that you are using, you sure pick and choose your facts to suit your argument. Why aren't you quoting all the many times he talks about how much he loves his mom and his sisters or how he talks about friendship, forgiveness and working together to make American a better place? Why aren't you pointing out he's also is a single father with full custody of his child, he does a huge amount of work on his own time for the American military, he gives his own money and raises funds for a whole range of non-profit organizations as well the American military and their families. He's created jobs in a state that is suffering from one of the biggest unemployment rates since the great depression. And he loves America and does everything he can to promote it and democracy.Sarah Palin really is a horrible person who continues to do nothing but horrible things for this country for her own selfish gain. But if the only thing you want to use to attack her is Kid Rock, then I question your intelligence too.And for the record, Bill Clinton is one of my heroes too. Put him and Kid Rock in the White House I know they'd fix this countries problems. And you and Sarah Palin? Why don't you both go stay in Alaska cause neither of you are helping us. Let me be clear, I’m a tree-hugging, bleeding heart, liberal who thinks Sarah Palin is one of the worst things that has happened to America in 50 years.

I know, you and about 55,000 of MY closest friends will NOT be voting for you or ANYBODY you promote. Kid Rock is an adult and has a MAJOR fan following. He's created 600 jobs in Detroit (how many have YOU created), donated 100,000 in ONE DAY to various charities (again, how much have YOU donated), supports our troops and brings our troops SMILES while they are overseas protecting YOUR freedom to speak so poorly about someone you have NEVER met. While you might not like his music, a lot of us DO. AND i'm a MOM. WITH four jobs. I REFUSE to live off government handouts. My children are wonderful kids with MORALS and a strong sense of will who treat others with fairness and would NEVER speak ill of someone they HAVE NOT MET.THANK you for your harsh JUDGEMENT. You have shown your true identity by your bashing of Kid Rock. His song "All Summer Long" was about having sex AS a teenager and the good times that went along with that. Are you saying you were a virgin until the day you were married? And you NEVER drank under the legal age?!?!? WOW. My daughter is 13 and we discuss drinking, sex & drugs. She has NO desire and steers other teens away from that. SO WHAT it's on the radio. People like YOU have taken GOD out of the schools, out of our constitution and off of the very idea this COUNTRY was BUILT. ONE NATION, UNDER GOD. I'll sing Kid Rock's music LOUDLY and PROUDLY. And I'll still THANK GOD and PRAY to God EVERY day. HE does not pass judgement. (And yes, I understand that Kid's music is not what you'd find 'morally' correct, but the man is HONEST and you KNOW where he stands.) Politicians? The biggest JOKE and will say ANYTHING to get a vote. (You just tried.)I wasn't sure Sarah would get my vote, but after reading what YOU wrote, she will now. And it's not because she wrote a positive statement about Kid. It's your total DISDAIN & JUDGEMENT over a man who has HELPED his community and BELIEVES in his hometown and PROMOTES our troops.YOU will always see me as LONG HAIR SWINGIN', MIDDLE FINGER IN THE AIR. Oh yeah - KR STYLE. WHO the HELL are YOU?!?!? I know, you and about 55,000 of MY closest friends will NOT be voting for you or ANYBODY you promote. Kid Rock is an adult and has a MAJOR fan following.

“Care”
(feat. Martina McBride, T.I.)

[Kid Rock]
Day by day my life gets colder
My eyes grows thin, as I get older
Peace in peaces, bloody and bruised
I feel so helpless and confused

[Bridge]
Cuz I hear screamin on the left
yellin on the right
I’m sitting in the middle tryin to live my life

[Chorus]
Cuz I cant stop the war
Shelter homeless, feed the poor
I can’t walk on water
I can’t save your sons and daughters
I can’t change the world and make things fair
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
The least that I can do is care

[Martina]
I pray and pray for life’s salvation
Faith is tried and true in tribulation
Love is lost and lonely, check the news
And with these open arms I’ll wait for you

[Bridge]
Cuz I hear screamin on the left
And yelling on the right
Im sitting in the middle trying to live my life

[Chorus]
Cuz I cant stop the war
Shelter homeless, feed the poor
I can’t walk on water
I can’t save your sons and daughters
I can’t change the world to make things fair
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
The least that I can do is care

[T.I.]
For the life of me, I can’t see how the devil keeps enticing me
All u sees a felon, I know god can see whats right in me
How I can be labeled as a villain in the first place
When the worst case senario is my birth place
Im just tryin to keep from fallin victim to the murder rate
Take my life lesson convincing the adolecents
There’s a god up in heaven, sending down blessins
And ur furture ain’t brighter than ur present
Quit Stressin

They re screamin on the left
Yellin on the right
While im sittin in the middle trying to live my life

Cuz I cant stop the war
Shelter homeless, feed the poor
Cant walk on water I cant save ur sons and daughters
I cant change the world to make things fair
The least that I can do is care

Yeah I cant stop the war
Shelter homeless feed the poor
I cant walk on water
I cant save ur sons and daughters
I cant change the world and make things fair
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
Oh is CARE

He's a wonderful person who does a lot of good for the city of Detroit. Yes, his performer style is a white trash, rapping, party boy, but keep in mind that's an image. He definitely lived that lifestyle for many of his years, but in no way does that make him as bad as you are making him out to be. I would never compare him with gangster rappers. Do your homework on how much good he does. He is proud to be an American and not afraid to say it. I think he's a great role model in that arena. He performs for the troops many times over, honors them at his concerts and he gives back to his community as much as he can. He supports arts and music in schools and much more. He's also a wonderful father. Take your own advice and do your research before jumping to conclusions about a person.
