Hank Williams, Jr.: 'Barack, pack your bags'

[sinkingfeeling]

http://content.usatoday.com/communities/theoval/post/2012/07/hank-williams-jr-fires-back-at-obama/1

Hank Williams, Jr., is apparently still upset over losing his Monday Night Football gig (for comparing President Obama to Hitler).

Williams has a new song called "Take Back Our Country" that includes lyrics predicting the president's defeat this November:

"Hey Barack pack your bags/Head to Chicago/Take your teleprompter with you so you'll know where to go."

The song is on a new Williams CD called Old School, New Rules, which includes tunes entitled "We Don't Apologize for America" and "Who's Taking Care of Number One?"

1. As if he ever knew what he was talking about.

If he ever had a lucid moment it would scare him to death.


This clown is laughable.

[Flashmann]

26. He's a racist.

It's no laughing matter.

[Rectangle]

55. I guess Rmoney's constant use of teleprompters is Ok though!

[arbusto_baboso]

3. There's a saying: Those who know the least, know it the loudest.

That describes Hank Jr. to a tee. His father would be utterly ashamed of him.

[Curtland1015]

4. He so totally reminds me of Bob Odinkirk's CS Lewis Jr. character

Hilarious (some crude language):

PB

[Lucy Goosey]

12. Omigod, Obama uses a teleprompter!? Is that true??!?

Omigod, you guys, Obama uses a teleprompter and he is the only public figure to ever use a teleprompter and that is the WORST THING A PRESIDENT COULD EVER DO, EVER! Call Congress right fucking noooowwwwww!!!!!!!!!

Thank you, Hank Williams, Jr., for your brilliant and highly original and totally awesome political analysis! You are a true genius sir!

[Plucketeer]

[SoCalDem]

16. Just another boozed up loser who never measured up to his father

yawn.

[RebelOne]

23. His father was also a boozer.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hank_Williams

During his last years Williams's consumption of alcohol, morphine and other painkillers severely compromised his professional and personal life. He divorced his wife and was dismissed by the Grand Ole Opry due to frequent drunkenness. Williams died suddenly in the early morning hours of New Years Day in 1953 at the age of 29 from heart failure brought on by pills and alcohol.

[SoCalDem]

24. true.. but musically, his father far out-paced him

He's spent his life using the name..but he's never measured up

[sadbear]

17. End of quote

The teleprompter now firmly belongs to Rmoney, at least until he figures out how to read from one.

[spanone]

18. he should have titled the album....'i hate the black guy in the white house'

[LynneSin]

19. WTF is with Republican Supporters and their hatred of Teleprompters

Here's a link of a whole bunch of republicans using Teleprompters:
http://current.com/groups/news-blog/93782046_15-pictures-of-republicans-using-teleprompters.htm

I mean really? How dumbass can ANYONE be???!!! Speakers everywhere use teleprompters - that's just how it is

[sinkingfeeling]

36. Pssst...It's only Democrats and teleprompters that are hated.

[arcane1]

53. Didn't Fred Thompson, in 2008, read off a teleprompter to accuse Obama of using one

it was like the nexus of the universe

[tallahasseedem]

20. Fuck this guy.

The only bags he'll be packing is for a short vacation before his second term.

[SunsetDreams]

21. To Hank Williams Jr: Pack Your Bags and

Please go to the nearest clue machine and buy a clue.

Take your washed up career with you.

[randome]

25. This is just his way of singing one of Daddy's songs.

'I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry'.

[HughBeaumont]

[Hoyt]

[Tommy_Carcetti]

31. Not only is he an asshole, apparently he plagarizes other crazy teabagger singers.

Oh, poor, poor Joyce Shaffer:

Is Hank claiming Obama wants to ban hopscotch as well?

[part man all 86]

32. Please layoff my Tenner'see brother.

Poor Hank does not know he is so stupid, it burns. He is a jerk, but he is our Tenner'see jerk. Y'all know Hank believes and loves the human race, as long as it's white.

[spanone]

33. he's an alabama jerk, we have plenty of our own

[part man all 86]

61. If you were near him, or related,

Get a TB test, a swine flu test, a bird flu test, a dipshit test, brake check, HIV test, in fact any test offered by your local government health department. But most importantly, a mental health test.

[flakey_foont]

34. has Charlie Daniels weighed in yet? 2 peas in the same pod

[11 Bravo]

37. Good one, Hank! Now, go brush your tooth.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

39. Of course, Junior has no idea how elections work

as seen here:

In 2008, he supported Republican Arizona Sen. John McCain's bid for the presidency. He appeared with McCain on the campaign trail, where he sang a revised version of his song "Family Tradition," called "A McCain-Palin Tradition." When the Republicans failed to retain the White House, Williams didn't take it well.

"If it wasn't for the Electoral College, Obama wouldn't be president," he said. "Let's face it. That's the problem right there."

so who cares what the lousy drunk predicts?

[OriginalGeek]

41. "...Take your teleprompter with you so you'll know where to go..."

lol, Hank Jr is so stupid he thinks a teleprompter is a GPS.

[jillan]

[Jamaal510]

42. Go away, Hank.

43. Hank III to Hank Jr: STFU

Hank Williams Jr.'s son -- Hank Williams III -- doesn't think his father should have opened his mouth about Obama yesterday ... telling TMZ most musicians are "not worthy" of a political discussion.

TMZ spoke with HW3 -- and punk rock-meets-country singer -- who tells us, "The only person out there worthy of mixing political views and music is Jello Biafra."

http://www.tmz.com/2011/10/04/hank-williams-jr-monday-night-football-son-politics-obama-hitler-fox-news-channel-jello-biafra-green-party-politics/

Yes, it's an old news story, but it still applies.

Have some more Hank III while you're at it:

[jillan]

44. His name is President Obama - you pig.

[derby378]

46. Actually, it's BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA...

...and I hope Bocephus chokes on it. Especially the middle name.

[Dawson Leery]

47. Remember, the country music establishment gave Hank a standing ovation

for "being disrespectful" towards the President (while troops are in the field). The Dixie Chicks lost their career and had bomb sniffing dogs at their concerts for the same behavior. This is telling as to what kind of people the country community are made of.

[BlueJazz]

48. Yep...You nailed it. Under all that "Country Goodness" is a nasty pit viper with racist fangs.

[Jack Sprat]

50. Blues Brothers playing "Rawhide"

and "Stand By Your Man" protected by chicken wire fence to deflect the flying beer bottles. LOL. That's the beer joint where the Country Music Awards are held.

[Tom Ripley]

49. Sounds like Hiram has packed his nose

[Marr]

51. Have you noticed this country is plagued with "juniors"?

From GW Bush to Tim Russert's juvenile replacement, we seem to have an almost British level of idiotic lesser-sons in niches carved out by their fathers.

[Hoyt]

52. Confederate flags on album covers tell me all I need to know.

[MADem]

54. What a tool--he's clearly still living out of HIS suitcase after having decamped so hastily from the

NFL.

Don't let the door hit ya, Hank...

[Drunken Irishman]

56. I hope they play this song at Obama's victory party later this November.

[Blue Owl]

57. Skank Jr. can sure crank out a shitty tune

n/t

[lostnote12]

58. The Dixie Chicks CD sales climbed through the roof after their remark about our Jr CIA President...

......I think this "son of a great one" will not be elevated in CD sales, although I bet he's hoping on it......a friend of mine is his drummer as well as the other TWO Jr's that are cashing in on a name as well......

[emulatorloo]

60. Idiot

[The Midway Rebel]

62. Ya'll should lay off Yank Williams Jr. a bit.

I think he has a Traumatic Brain Injury from the accident in '75. Seriously. I have some friends that survived bad motorcycle and car wrecks with TBI and I see similar behaviors. The man cannot help himself. His a few years away form a quiet gig on Branson anyway.
