Your buddy Uncle Hank Jr is back with some heat rocks for the double 1. Hank Jr if you recall got into a little bit of trouble for voicing his opinion about Pres Obama and his golf outing with the Speaker of the House, a republican. I don't disagree with what Hank was trying to convey, which he later said in this statement:
“I have always been very passionate about Politics and Sports and this time it got the Best or Worst of me. The thought of the Leaders of both Parties Jukin and High Fiven on a Golf course, while so many Families are Struggling to get by simply made me Boil over and make a Dumb statement and I am very Sorry if it Offended anyone. I would like to Thank all my supporters. This was Not written by some Publicist.”
But, Hank, lets face it. You learned what its like to be one of the people your were "trying to protect." When was the last time somebody told their boss or authority figure how they really felt about them when they were present or the message could be replayed for them over and over? It sucks when you can't make your own rules and force people to deal with it.
Here the diss song here.

My thought. Hank had a good run. He also had some valid points. Could he have used a less iconic figure than Hitler for a comparison, probably so? Was it a good shock value line? Obviously, nobody really cared about Hank and nobody will care about him in another 10 mins. Should CEOs or government officials go play golf to close business deals? I would say no, but this happens in every line of business. Deals are made while treating your customer to perks and deals. It happens. Sorry. But if the shoe fits....this ones for you Hank.
