Hank Williams Jr. saying that he quit ESPN because they stepped on the toes of the First Amendment. TFM.

      i’ll create the 28th to balance the budget. i’ll create the 29th to abolish the 19th. and i’ll demonstrate my 2nd amendment rights by shooting you for disagreeing with the 16th.

      Oh, so you like the 16th? Income tax is the biggest mistake in American history. I work hard for my money and I don’t want the Government to take whats mine. Also when you have such a high unemployment rate everyone is expecting the rich to pick up the slack because 9.1% of America doesn’t have income. If we focus on sales tax then everyone that makes a purchase in America pays taxes and it makes people that make money under the table, such as drug dealers and teens payed in cash, pay taxes. There is nothing wrong with disagreeing with the 16th because it is a mistake just like the 18th amendment and we knew it was a mistake so we made the 21st amendment.

      I can’t stand Scbro either but he has a point on this one… It’s not like he is getting arrested for saying what he did, but HWJ has to understand that their are consequencesfor his actions while he’s under contract.

      scbro is exactly right on this. Bocephus can’t shoot his mouth off and then go crying like a little bitch when he’s called out on it.

      Let’s look at how many people berated GWB when he was in office, and how often he was compared to Hitler, and how often anyone was reprimanded. Never. Kanye West openly called him a racist and people ate that shit up. If you don’t think there’s a left-leaning media bias, you’re fucking high (which some of you probably are. Rage on.) But Hank makes one subjective opinion statement and he’s all of a sudden the bad guy. Fuck that. Good for him for saying whatever the fuck he wants and not giving a damn. All the Democrats get pissy about Republicans infringing on people’s rights, but then point fingers when a proud Republican exercises his.

    Disrespecting one of the largest genocides in modern human history. NF. What kind of uncultured idiot does that? Oh, I know, some uncultured hillbilly fuck riding on the coattails of his father.

      Using the word “uncultured” as an insult. NF. Your name. Definitely NF. Your assuredly yankee accent. Worse than genocide. The word “fuck”. FAF.

      I just don’t get how he gets fired from MNF, yet Madonna compared McCain to Hitler back in 08, and she’s getting her own halftime show at the Super Bowl this year. What the FUCK?

      riding the coattails of his father? His fathers style and his are COMPLETELY different. You have to respect HWJ for breaking out of his father’s shadow and arguably becoming more famous than his father. idiot

      @BROnonia_Docet because ESPN (owned mostly by Disney) and the NFL are two separate businesses and can hire and fire based on their own discretion. Hank’s contract was with ESPN. Madonna’s would either be with the NFL or NBC.

      You’re not suggesting we bring back the Fairness Doctrine, are you?

      Not as long as it took for the intern to edit the TFM into “saying he quit” instead of “quitting.” Pretty common knowledge he got canned.

      Hitler and Netanyahu didn’t like each other? Last time I checked hitler died four years before Netanyahu was born.

      December does bring up a very valid point. Political correctness in this country has gone to a whole new level of p.ussyness though.

      That’s how I saw it too. He didn’t say Obama was Hitler, just that his ideas were pretty far from Boehners. And anyone who didn’t get the “three stooges,” he was including Boehner in that number because he agreed to play.
      I thought it was obvious when I saw it live, but I’m not surprised that everyone started hollering about it like they did.

    Hank making a public fool of Obama. FaF. Not saying sorry and telling everyone to fuck off. FaF. His attire. NF. Overall, badass stunt. Round of applause for you Hank.
