Not defending the insertion of words into a quote, but referencing the color of buttocks is the purest form of non-racist references to a person’s color possible. Anyone can add the color of a person’s buttocks as an emphasis without it necessarily being about the race.
Idle question- is he the son or the grandson of the Hank Williams that actually had some talent?
And from what I could tell from his publicist’s half-assed statement(?), it still turned into a “all us rightards is victims”.
Shocking.

He’s the son of Hank Williams, the great, influential songwriter & performer who died far too young. Poor Hank Junior–he was raised by Audrey who was truly a piece of work. His son, Hank Williams III, probably gives him conniptions; haven’t heard much of his work but I’m willing to give him points for The Conniption Factor.
(I avoided the clip in the OP but am incensed that a YouTube search for “Hank Williams” gives me so many hits for Junior.)
You don’t *drive *the Lamborghini. It’s just there to attract more nookie.
Jeez. Explaining things to you is like Hitler.
Hank III is actually pretty interesting to see live because he does a more-or-less traditional country show, but then does a hardcore punk/metal show after intermission. Although as of late the country stuff is veering more towards the hardcore stuff. It is uncanny how much Hank III looks and sounds like Hank Sr, unlike Jr.
Hank Jr. called Obama and Biden “The Three Stooges.” 
After that I had a hard time taking anything he said seriously.
Someone on Fox and Friends called him out on that too. Actually, they questioned his assertions quite a bit more than I would have expected. I think he thought he was going into a situation where he could be as off-the-wall in his rhetoric as he wanted. He didn’t realize coherence mattered too.
Larry and Moe. The third guy was always switching out for someone else. So the third one would be…press secretary?

What’s wrong with comparing Obama to Hitler anyway?
Barack Obama is taller than Hitler was.
There, I just compared Obama to Hitler.
Curly Joe Pelosi.
Irina Dunn compared women and men to fish and bicycles. The obvious implication is that she thinks women are like fish and men are like bicycles…right?
Oh, wait. That’s not how analogies work. Analogies compare one relationship to another, but it doesn’t compare the objects mentioned. “A is to B as C is to D” says nothing about how A and C are related, nor about B and D’s relationship. This is, like, the first thing they teach you about analogies when you’re 8. Even grade school students know this. You must have been absent that day.
Obama:Boehner::Hitler:Netanyaho in no way implies that Obama and Hitler are alike. Unless, of course, you don’t understand how analogies work. But hey, your failed attempt to understand the easily understandable is admirable, too.
Hey, dumb fuck, read the thread and then post.
It’s always funny how the truly reactionary rightards feel the need to use words like “sense” and “reason” and the like in their usernames.

Relevant Daily Show link, last night’s moment of Zen:
Sigh. I know I’m going to get slammed for this. I understand this is the pit, but can we not disagree with another poster without resorting to name-calling? I vehemently disagree with CS’s assertion as well. I just don’t see how calling him a dumb f*** advances the discussion, or does anything other than to antagonize. I don’t mean to single you out, Blank Slate. You’re, by far, not the only poster who engages this way. I use your post for illustration purposes only.
Back to the topic…
I’m sorry, Chessic, your analogy doesn’t hold in this case, especially in light of Mr. Williams admitting that he was comparing Obama to Hitler.
Hey, Hank, I think it was Confucius who said:
So now you want to add Confucius/Mao into the mix?
-Joe
We already have Bocephus.
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain’t going to make it with anyone anyhow.
I have been thinking about this. I believe that Hank Jr. is, in fact, every single thing wrong with Country Music today.
