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 is not new for him. He is full of himself and a jerk.
Democrat negroes support Democrat negroes , no matter what .
And if certain other negroes do not support the Democrat negroes that they support , then they attack those negroes that oppose the Democrat negroes that they do support . Those non Administration aligned negroes are seen as ‘Uncle Toms ‘
He set his record due to his launching pad stadium. Ruth also had the short right field in Yankee Stadium. Willie Mays got his the hard way in windy (with the wind almost always blowing in) Candlestick.
So much for Hank Aaron...
Gee Hank...! I guess I’ll have to leave the Tea Party now! Stuff you!
Look folks....give Hank Aaron just a little slack!!! Obama has screwed the country up so bad....African-Americans will suffer for the next hundred years for supporting him.
Have you noticed that the venom coming form the mouths of the majority of African-American spokesmen & women is filled with hate and envy!!! They know they screwed up.....they just don’t know how to get out of it!!!
So....out comes the race card card!!! But......Hank....it just won’t work this time. Best you folk march down to the White House & tell Obama to resign and go back to the gutter of Chicago from whence he came!!!
To whom did he compare the democrats who founded the KKK?
You are old enough to know better but, now and forever dead to me.
“Better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt...”
Now I regret buying my car from his dealership.
The deeply prejudiced are unaware of their own prejudice and deal with it by projecting it onto others while still feeling the guilt. Thus we have the psychological wall that prevents legitimate criticism of anyone black without accusations of prejudice.
Obvious to some, wordy to others, but I am getting sick of it. Wake up, Obama supporters. You are the ones with the problem, not us.
How ungrateful, bitter, and unkind can a person be? Did he Aaron run across bad apples in his lifetime? Sure, who hasn't.
How fantastic that Aaron cannot see his ugly irony of portraying himself the victim of racism while in the same breath denounces vast swaths of people as bigots. Mr. Aaron ought to take the log out of his own eye and then apologize to those many who he has impugned and besmirched.
Just more proof that the Racialists have been successfully indoctrinating “their people” that any challenges they face is racism. Hank experienced actual racism and struggled mightily, resulting in a great personal accomplishment. Yet, he has traded his individual character to the collective victimization of his entire race.
It is rather sad that this happens in America.
Hammerin Hank becomes Yammerin Hank.
This is Godwin’s Law extended.
My heart breaks also. I always respected this man and knew he went through real racism while gaining his achievement.
But, I just can’t respect him anymore.
It’s like the scene in Good Fellas. I’m gonna have to turn my back on you now, Hank.
The one saving grace of the Bamster administration has been the mask falling from so many. The last five years have been a stark lesson in the extreme racial hatred boiling within the American black community despite a few decades of relative calm.
I watched that home run also. He is probably senile.
