ESPN has said goodbye to Hank Williams, Jr.
Immediately, the dumbassery has begun as the Freepers have made their way to ESPN.

Seems like an over reaction, saying that his comparison made no sense unless Netanyahu has some kind of time machine that he isn't telling us about

Well, classic ABC to pull a opening because a mna voiced his political beliefs. He made an analogy, didn't even call Obama Hitler, they just were paired in a ANALOGY! so now we can't even have any liberal be compared to anything poor ever. Freedom of Speech is dead.

Do not insult the liberal media's Messiah, thats a no no. Im sure Hitlers family was insulted , being compared to Obama.

If Hank Williams Jr. would have compared Bush to Hitler, ESPN would have doubled the length of his intro.

I predict that many of the same people who are upset with ESPN's decision to cut Hank Williams, JRr loose, are the same people who applauded how the Dixie Chicks were treated when they spoke out against George Bush and the invasion of Iraq 8 years ago. Very little of this is about the support of freedom of speech. The support is all wrapped in political and social ideology.

Just when you think ESPN Monday Night Football couldnt get any worse. There analysts beside Gruden are absolute Sh*t on MNF. Oh and dont forget ESPN is owned by ABC and ABC is far left so they decided to be stupid

If he (Williams Jr.) had been a democrat and made the same analogy about President Bush or another Republican it wouldn't have been an issue.
Gotta love the liberal media

ESPN screwed the pooch yet again. If the Dixie Chicks had performed the MNF song, ESPN would not have objected one bit to any of their political rants against Bush et al., but if you snipe at a liberal president or a mediocre black quarterback, you can say bye bye to Bristol...

Sports is about the only unifying factor that is national politics free left in the USA and now those liberal $@%'s at ABC have destroyed that.

Hitler was very effective at implementing his policies, so comparisons between him and Obama are clearly unwarranted.

What happen to freedom of speech? People getting punished for giving their opinion of the president. Sounds like ESPN is run by Hitler. Definitely don't like this move and the MNF theme song is a tradition that was stopped by some wack democrats who work high up in ESPN got all butt hurt because he spoke the truth! ALL HAIL OBAMA! HE IS GREAT, HE IS GOOD! Sick of democrats, they stank, their tricksters, good for nothin swindlers. Stop listening to the liberal media and actually make your own decision!
Goddamnitsomuch...
I think to make it perfectly clear, we have to understand one obvious point:
THIS IS WHAT REPUBLICANS ACTUALLY BELIEVE.
Although, there was one GREAT idea to come out of this...
