(gactv.com) Toby Keith is storming up the country charts with his latest single, "Love Me If You Can," which is one of just a few songs on his newest album, Big Dog Daddy that he didn't write. Toby tells Dial-Global that the song, written by Craig Wiseman, fit him to a T and said just what he wanted to say. Toby says, "If you support the troops and justice for what happened on 9/11, all of a sudden you've got all these right-handed check marks. And if you disagree with the war, then all of a sudden everybody check marks you on the left-handed side. Mine's back and forth and that's what this song's about. It's like, 'Hate me if you want to, love me if you can.' I do sometimes think war is necessary, but I pray for peace every night. And if we all had that magic button we could push, we're all after the same thing." 
"This world today is so polarized and so right wing - left wing, we can't reach any resolutions on any issues because of it," he says. "I finally stood up and said, 'You know what, I'm not really a political guy. I see things right or wrong, I don't see them right or left.'"
