Colorado Springs, COCountry singer, Hank Williams Jr. is often by Sarah Palins side throughout her two months on the campaign trail. He opens up with the National Anthem, but at a rally in an airport hangar here, Williams Jr. veered off script and directly questioned Barack Obamas patriotism before he sang the National Anthem.
You know, Im usually at Monday Night Football tonight, but Colorado, this is a lot more important tonight. Join me now in our Nationalyou know, that song that, uh, Mr. Obamas not real crazy about, were singing it right now.
Williams then sang, McCain-Palin Tradition which blasts the liberal media and calls the GOP Vice-Presidential candidate a good lookin dishit is his standard song after the National Anthem.
Palin took the stage after his performance and thanked Williams Jr. calling him a great inspiration because he uses the first amendment which seems to defend Williams comment.
We want to take a minute here to thank Hank Williams Jr. Over the past couple of months he has traveled with us. He and his most beautiful family stops all along the way this campaign trail. Now this is the last rally that we get to do together and hes been just a great inspiration. Never one to hide his opinion or be afraid to share it. Palin said, Hey he exercises those First Amendment rights. We love him! Yes. So we want to thank Hank and we are going to see him tomorrow night on the other side of victory, my friend.
When asked if Palin agreed with Williams Jr.s comment and that is why she praised him Palin spokesperson Tracey Schmitt said, She has said before that she knows Barack Obama loves his country.

A FACE OF DETERMINATION, A FACE OF CONFIDENCE,- THE FACE OF A WINNER!
WE WIN BECAUSE- WE HAVE SARAH AND THEY DONT
why shouldn’t she question his patriotism? He may love his country but I like to know which country that is?
Palin wants to win - she doesn’t have the “tail between the legs Bush has” - I am disappointed in Bush in the way he just lets the Media and Democrats use him as punching bag....
We should question the patriotism of the Mansourian candidate.
Hank Wms Jr left a message on our answering machine today on behalf of the Virginia GOP and McCain Palin.
O refuses to salute the flag, refuses to fund our military, refused to acknowledge that the surge worked, refuses to honor the right to life for the unborn, denigrates hard working Americans who feel they are already overtaxed. Has no respect for the second amendment either. As for free speech.........not for any who disagree with his view of our wonderful country.
There has never been a word said by that one to give us the idea that he loves his country.
If Bocephus or Charlie Daniels said it, IT’S TRUE. And you can take that to the bank. They are true American patriots.
I’d write in Sarah if I thought she’d have a chance. She’s outperformed McCain IMHO.

WOW, Sarah stands up for people who stand up for this counrty, and the liberal scumbags do nothing but criticize her for it. This must be the equivalent of driving a nail through their tiny socialist brains. Keep hammering away at them Sarah.
Maybe someone should email Shushannah the pic of Obama with his hands clasped instead of on his heart.
They have leo deCRAPPEO and has been springsteen.
We have Hank and Charlie Daniels........
I’m OK with that........
Kenya? Indonesia? Cuba?
We were just there. It was awesome! Hank JR. was great. I leave for Iraq next week; what a note to leave on!
Barack Hussein Obama the Turd is an America-hating p.o.s.
What’s wrong with saying it loud and clear?
All the best, soldier. _:)
God speed Troop.
hell, all of us know Obama loves his country ,it’s just that Sarah Palin loves ours.
