"A good southern movie"

Toby Keith was on the Colbert Report last night promoting his new movie. Actually, it's not a real movie; it's a made-for-TV-by-CMT movie. Keith summarized the movie by saying that it's about a small-town guy who gets a girl pregnant, leaves her, and returns 17 years later after a bunch of local boys are killed in the war. Keith's assessment of this script: "It's a good southern movie." Gee, no wonder people idealize the South. Who wouldn't want to live in a town where premarital sex, spousal abandonment, deadbeat dads, and getting killed in war are all considered "good southern" values?

::sigh::
