Hank Williams, Jr., the voice famous for asking millions of football fans whether they’re ready for some football, has been pulled from tonight’s broadcast of “Monday Night Football” over a comment he made on Fox News this morning.

“It would be like Hitler playing golf with (Israeli leader) Benjamin Netanyahu,” Williams told “Fox & Friends.”
USA Today, among others, picked up the quote, speculating on whether the comparison would get Williams booted from the broadcast .

Everything about 0 is Hitlerisk. All we have to do is open our eyes.
We all see what’s becoming of this country.
Make new rules so businesses can’t possibly stay in business.
Ergo, NO JOBS—Ergo, unemployment, food stamps, government
takeover of everyone.
IT’S REALLY CLEAR AS A BELL.
Geez, and how many lefties DIRECTLY accused Bush of BEING Hitler?
It was a national sport back then.
Are you ready for some Hitler?
Are you ready for some small mustache?
Don't Give Us a Reason--Hank Williams, Jr., 1990
No, No, Joe--Luke the Drifter (Hank Williams, Sr.), 1950
That’s a pretty mild statement. He’s not calling Obama Hitler, he’s trying to say how odd it is that two opposites can play golf together.
How many times did Bush get criticism for his vacations and golf yet 0 gets nothing?
ESPN = MSNBC.
Nobody is going to watch the lopsided matchup on tonight’s game anyhow.
I never suggested he wasn’t.
are you ready for some giant belt buckle?
(I’d rather look at Faith Hill)
That’s funny! I already yanked ESPN for douching Rush! So there you lib cretins!
I’m done with espn.
Comments at the site are surprisingly almost totally for Hank.
As far as I see it, it won't be long before there will be anybody who has anything nice to say about the punk marxist POTUS. At least Hitler didn't put this country into a depression.
Don't yank Hank! I'm ready for some football.
Natalie Maines would disagree.
You mean Alec Baldwin, Roseanne Barr, Lady Gaga, Bill Maher and other lefties?
Well that just beats all.
Its fox and friends fault!!!!!!!!!
They asked him about politics. And he gave them his honest answer
I am really sick of this!!!!

Bwahahahahahaha, now that is some serious karma when all these wackjob idiots were comparing Bush to Hitler.... =.=

MNF will be forever ruined without Hank.
