...Hank Aaron compared Republicans that oppose President Barack Obama to the Ku Klux Klan....
“Sure, this country has a black president, but when you look at a black president, President Obama is left with his foot stuck in the mud from all of the Republicans with the way he’s treated,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.
Aaron continued: “The bigger difference is that back then they had hoods. Now they have neckties and starched shirts.”

I watched his record breaking home run with joy...to see him say something so dumb is frustrating. I thought he was smarter than that. How does Hank explain Ben Carson?.. Or Allen West? Or Mia Love? Or Star Parker? Or Clarence Thomas? Or Lloyd Marcus? Or Tim Scott?
Maybe to alleviate the pain I will chalk it up to him being old and crotchety....
this crap is getting old.
Ask me if I give a sh... what Hank Aaron thinks.
His quota boy is a stupid jerk with no education, no morals, no drive, and no real birth certificate.
Shove it Aaron, up your Obamahole.
Hank? Hank ...
Before his remarks, Hank may have gotten hammered.
OHHHHHH HENRY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pity...
He was once a baseball hero.
SENILE eh?....or just plain STUPID?
“My heart breaks when I see this. Hammerin’ Hank was a childhood hero to me. “
because the problem in this country is they have made everything about race, religion and ethnicity....
exactly what they claim should never be a factor.
I don’t even blame hank, its what we’ve all been taught..the white Christian male is the bad guy.
Is Hank Aaron a snitch?
If I still had my Hank Aaron baseball card, I would throw it away. What a jerk.
“this crap is getting old.”

So it Hank.

Hank Aaron: Once a beloved baseball hero, now a demented, senile old man so filled with hatred that he can no longer think straight.
Such a shame.
He’s not the first historic figure to say severely regrettable things late in life. Age and a sense of self-importance can loosen a man’s tongue; many significant men have gone verbally incontinent.
lol
Agreed, sad to realize Hank Aaron is so ignorant.
Conservative opposition to Liberalism/Socialism is not based on race, we've opposed every Liberal White President's policies Mr. Aaron!
I do.
Hank and the left hate speech they accuse everyone else of.
Hank Aaron is probably a low-information citizen, a citizen who was never taught the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers as the Founding States had intended for those powers to be understood. So his opinion about conservatives is likely not an informed opinion.
