    he invoked hitler, so he lost all credibility with me. serves him right for talking out of his ass on national tv..

    Their loss that was really an awesome intro song! Made you want to lift that beer!
    and shake it up :D


    I think he'll be ok though ...

  • That is the problem with politics today... too many yahoos on both sides like him, just referring to the other party as "the enemy". What is right or best of the country is so far in the backseat most of the times, it's all about my "team" beating your "team".

    well I'm an independent and feel it is another loss of freedom of speech...
    in this great country of freedoms
    this because it is not politically correct

    and I get image and sponsorship and consequence etc etc

    but its a damn opening song and a damn cool one ...
    betcha President Obama even likes it :D

    in fact it would be a way cool President to stand up for him and say
    hey man no hard feelings...
    you are in the Great USA and have a right to your opinion and I really like your song
    you good ole country boy you :D

    Like that would ever happen in either party... we've lost the real joes long time ago...

    No one is taking anyone's freedom of speech away... he is well within his rights to say whatever he wants about Obama. But ABC is within their rights to take away his job for it.

    I think but could be wrong the relationship between the two playing golf was being compared not our President to Hitler

    but it would be cool to have a cool President who could do just that ...
    get the good ole country boy out of a pickle
    bet said President's ratings would go sky high ;)

    He explained what he meant in the article...
    he's not a politician
    probably not accustomed to lying or trying to weasel out of his words

    he writes some great words too
  • pandorapandora Posts: 21,855
    I can't attest for sure no alcohol involved but it was a Monday morning show on Fox
    when he said it

    I'd have to do more research but I don't think he is a big drinker at this time in his life...
    are we just assuming in a unfriendly manner?

    Come on, the excuse of freedom of speech and politically correct has become a pamper for people who are simply assholes. He came across as an asshole, not for what he said, but for the simple fact that he sounded like he was half wasted and rambled.
    SIN EATERS--We take the moral excrement we find in this equation and we bury it down deep inside of us so that the rest of our case can stay pure. That is the job. We are morally indefensible and absolutely necessary.

    eyes of the beholder when it coms to asses ;) yes?

    Everyone has moments when they come across as an asshole. That day, on that FOX show, he came across as asshole because he sounded half wasted and rambled. It doesn’t reflect on his music or his character as a whole, but ESPN did what they thought was in the best interest of their show. It’s not like they called for people to trash his CDs so why make it more than what it was, a moment in time.

    didn't take long. I will say I actually think it is a little overblown. I do think people are being a little over sensitive here. It is a dumb-ass comparison from a guy who by all accounts is a bit of a dumbass. Anyone actually surprised by this? it started under Bush and will continue on into the future with just about every president we will have for many many years.

    i agree it's overblown ... but you gotta admit if it was a republican president ... there would be outrage of epic proportions from conservatives ...

    Hank is a dickwadd... Oh, and his theme song sucks! MNF will be just fine without this douchebags opening song.

    Maybe Hank and Ted Nugent can do a duet for an opening theme song for Hannity. That's where these performers belong.

    absolutely there would, I think the Hitler comparisons that have now become common place originated in talking about Bush and have morphed into Obama now. It is crazy. I guess if you disagree with someone they are hitler...you and I disagree, does that make us both hitler? :lol::lol:
