The guy is just a weirdo and very low class all around. What kind of idiot gives an interview with sun glasses on?

I think the possibility of racism is raised. Would he have said Hillary Clinton is like Hitler? Or Joe Biden is like Hitler? Na, Obama is Hitler because he's black.

Oh and the disavow thing by Fox was of course weak and pathetic. If a Democrat had said that about Boehner, they would have challenged him and let him have it right then and there. He would have been called disgusting, part of the problem, extreme, foolish, etc, but of course since he opposes the Democrats on Fox, he doesn't even get a slap on the wrist.

Hank has lost his spot at the opening of Monday Night Football. He can think on it and read about the real Hitler instead. I can't believe I didn't think to complain to the NFL about him.

The Hank Williams Jr. song that has opened Monday Night Football for 20 years will not be part of the opening of this week's Indianapolis-Tampa Bay game after Williams made controversial comments about President Barack Obama.

Williams compared Obama to Adolf Hitler on Fox News Channel's "Fox and Friends" show Monday morning.

ESPN, in a statement, said: "While Hank Williams, Jr. is not an ESPN employee, we recognize that he is closely linked to our company through the open to Monday Night Football. We are extremely disappointed with his comments, and as a result we have decided to pull the open from tonight's telecast."
...
Williams has been critical of Obama in the past. He campaigned for Sen. John McCain and running mate Sarah Palin in 2008, even changing the words of one of his songs, "Family Tradition," to blast Obama and the Democrats for the financial crisis the country was facing prior to that year's election.

I think everyone is allowed to give his own opinion..Did anyone notice that William said that "they are enemy".I think according to him, playing golf together is out of bounds.

Williams appears to be a lunatic. He clearly really hates the Democrats, liberals and Obama. Maybe he doesn't like Boehner either because to him, Boehner is not far enough to the right.

Williams is allowed to give his own opinion, and the reaction to his opinion (him being fired from his job) was also an excellent example of karma.

Well said..Agree.

Thanks! :)

What do you make of the current 2012 Republican field? Who would you support in the general election if they were pitted against Obama?
