>> * ESPN and Hank Williams Jr. have officially parted ways after the right-wing singer compared President Obama to Hitler. In a statement, Williams said the network stepped on his First Amendment rights, apparently confusing the right to free speech with the right to an ESPN contract.

I thought it was great the way he flipped them off.

But public figures would be well advised to delete the name Hitler from their vocabularies. There is never, ever a situation where it can help one's situation and there is always the possibility of an over-reaction to the word.

I agree. Not sure but I don't think he meant the comparison in the way some are interpreting it. But I agree with you..............it doesn't pay to compare a leader to Hitler. It didn't work with Bush and its not going to work with Obama.
