The people of America have zero respect for our president Obama. I understand having a dislike for the person you may have voted against. However publicly speaking ill about the leader of our nation says a lot about us as a country. I am glad ESPN didn’t allow this to just go over their heads. Think before you speak Mr.Hank Williams! A Hitler comparison though? Obama is an angel compared to that man. SMH!
Hank Williams Jr., the singer whose various videos for the hit song “All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Monday Night” has served as the intro to “Monday Night Football” for 23 seasons, compared President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler during a Monday morning appearance on “Fox and Friends.” The statement led to ESPN pulling his popular intro segment, best known to fans for its “Are you ready for some football?” ending, for Monday night’s game between the Indianapolis Colts and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
During a discussion on the 2012 presidential race, Williams began discussing Obama’s golf outing with Speaker of the House John Boehner. He said it was a political mistake, on par with “Hitler playing golf with [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu.”
ESPN released a statement expressing disappointment in Williams’ comments. The network said the intro will be pulled for one game and any further decision will be based on how contrite the singer-songwriter is in the immediate future.
