Every time a liberal entertainer says something politically controversial, the right wing predictably stands up and says in unison, "shut up and sing!" or, "shut up and act!" or whatever fits. But when a conservative entertainer gets political, they're all for it. Ronald Reagan (now sainted), Arnold Schwarzenegger (when he wond the Governorship of California), John Voit, Kelsey Grammar, even the tremendously batty Victoria Jackson are now right wing heroes. Now, Hank Williams Jr. may be bumped off the list. But I doubt it. When Ted Nugent made nasty, offensive references to Hillary Clinton, he stayed in the right's good graces.

I don't think Williams said Obama was Hitler. He said that Boehner playing golf with Obama was like Jews playing golf with Hitler. And I find that to be a fair comparison when it comes to politics.
ReplyDeleteThen when asked for clarification, he said Obama was the enemy to conservatives and to the country. Well, since Dem's think conservatives/Tea Party are the enemy of the country, I think it was a valid comparison.
