Comparing Obama to Hitler?

[GeoFisher]

Until Obama kills a few million folks in an incinerator, there is NO COMPARISON....

Trying to justify a comparison is foolish........Maybe Hank Williams Jr didn't mean it, maybe he did. I don't know and I don't CARE.

I do know that comparing past, current or future presidents to the most hateful, EVIL person the world has ever known is...........simply wrong and HATEFUL.........That goes for current company and past company.......

Later,

as long as they call him anything but good, thats all that matters

I havent viewed the video yet or heard what he said. But when you are a celebrity like I guess he is and he is being interviewed then he just says whatever he pleases then he should be held accountable. He is paid for those interviews and that is his job. Like you said Bugsy, he probably had too much wacky tobaccy in the old days. I think he is just a spoilt rich kid himself who made it off his daddys coat sleeves. I have heard of Hank Williams but not Jr. Does he actually work or just live off of his daddys money. I think in the public eye Americans need to show theirPresident more respect.Doesnt mean they have to like him. But cheap shots like Obama and Hitler is just plain stupid. Makes no sense. He was probably stoned.

This freedom of speech is a double edged sword. Sometimes you get cut sometimes you do the cutting.
The part that should be "fair and balanced" (sorry couldn't pass that up) is take your medicine if someone gets pissed or is in the position to make you pay by getting fired or fined. Paid celebrities have a boss and so do paid athletes and news folks so they better be careful.
Politicians are the worst and get away with just about anything they want. They feel untouchable and for the most part are and that disgusts me. They work for us but have placed themselves into a category or class above the rest of us.

Gotta agree with Geo here, no need for this kind of crap.


You have to wonder where his head was during that interview because he called Boehner and Obama the Three Musketeers and someone had to point out that was two people and not three.

Agreed, no place for that kind of comparison. I am not a fan of the current POTUS but that was ridiculous. Perhaps ol Hank should take some advice from Toby Keith!

Big Gills - I can't believe you've heard of the father but not the son...I mean seriously. Seriously? Just so you know...(sit back and get a glass of Jim Beam first) he didn't make it to the top by riding on his old man's coat tails. The music industry WANTED him to be like his dad, sing his dad's songs, etc...but it wasn't working out. He didn't make the big time until he started playing music HIS way. This was back in the 70's sometime. I didn't get a true feel for what an artist he was until I saw one of his shows where he played solo on stage...solo...playing every instrument on stage that 18-wheels could haul...solo...by himself. That night he played guitar, bass guitar, upright bass, banjo, piano, fiddle, and drums. It was pretty impressive. As far as Americans showing the POTUS respect, I'm American and I ain't about to show Nobama any respect until he admits that he's in over his head. Nobama needs to fess up and admit that he himself needs a bail out. Nothing wrong with telling the truth is there? I think if Nobama would come clean with the citizens of the greatest country in the world then the citizens in turn might be willing to support him more than what they are now. We are a giving and caring people down here in the United States, if you don't believe me just ask the illegals, they'll tell ya, lol...Yea I know, pipe dream (not Willie's pipe either, lol), it ain't gonna happen.

Embrey - You're right on with that statement, call Nobama anything but good!

I don't like the comparison either, but oh well, just about any performer I like has done something I didn't like at one time or another. It doesn't change what I think of his music.

I'm pretty sure it was his mom that made him play his dad's old songs. She had him on tour singing his dad's song, dressing like his dad, and so on. One day he wanted to play a few of his own songs, and she didn't agree...........not wanting to remain in his dad's shadow, he left home and went out on his own and made it happen for himself.

Watch the movie "Living Proof: Hank Williams Jr. Story" sometime. You'll like it.

Also, on a side note, there is a movie due out later this month about the last days of Hank Williams Sr.'s life, called "The Last Ride". I've been looking forward to it for a long time, just hoping it comes to a theater near here....
Go here and watch the trailer:

Thanks to Steve Jobs, I recieved some sort of alert on my cell phone today mentioning that our boy Hank is about to release a new song titled; "Keep the Change!"

Hmmmm....with a title like that there's no tellin' what the song is about but I bet I'm gonna like it!

Thanks Steve and thank you HANK!
