Country music singer and incendiary conservative Hank Williams, Jr. is once again saying controversial things about President Obama. Des Moines Register reporter Joe Lawler writes Williams told a crowd at the Iowa State Fair Friday that the president isn’t a Christian and that he “hates” America.

“We’ve got a Muslim president who hates farming, hates the military, hates the US and we hate him!” Williams yelled to the crowd.

The line was met with “loud and enthusiastic” cheers, Lawler writes. 

Williams was booted from his slot on Monday Night Football last year after he compared Obama to Hitler on a Fox News Interview. Shortly thereafter he released a song accusing Obama of trying to create the “United Socialist States of America.”
