Hulk Hogan Continues To Comment On Controversy, However Apparently Doesn't Get It
Hulk Hogan continues to comment on the controversy over his racist comments in 2006. Hogan has mostly been re-tweeting messages of support from African American fans, and also wrote the following (sic):
Unless u went through this,true loyality and love has a different meaning,it makes u want to live and not die,4those that never left me I am Forever grateful and love u with all my heart life,only love 4u. HH
For those that left me and didn't stand by my side,u will see and I will prove,who i really am and u will also understand my love for u 0LHH
However in re-tweeting messages stating that he isn't a racist, he also re-tweeted the message below equating Hogan using the "N" word to describe how he's a racist to President Obama using the term on Marc Maron's podcast last month when discussing how race relations have changed in the United States:
Bi-racial President Obama uses N word, is applauded and keeps his job. @HulkHogan uses N word, is vilified and loses his job.

Below are Obama's comments from Marc Maron's podcast last month where he used the term:
"Racism, we are not cured of it. And it's not just a matter of it not being polite to say n*gger in public. That's not the measure of whether racism still exists or not. It's not just a matter of overt discrimination. Societies don't, overnight, completely erase everything that happened 200 to 300 years prior."
Below are Hogan's comments, via The National Enquirer:
"She [Brooke] is making some real bad decisions now. My daughter Brooke jumped sides on me. I spent $2-3 million on her music career, I've done everything like a jackass for her... The one option Brooke had, Brooke's career besides me, is [to] sell beach records.
"I don't know if Brooke was f*cking the black guy's son. I mean, I don't have double standards. I mean, I am a racist, to a point, f*cking n*ggers. But then when it comes to nice people and sh*t, and whatever... I mean, I'd rather if she was going to f*ck some n*gger, I'd rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n*gger worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player!
"I guess we're all a little racist. F*cking n*gger."
It should be noted that Hogan was never "vilified" for using the term in 2012 when discussing the infamous promo that Booker T cut on him in WCW during an interview with Whoo Kid on Shade 45, which is below at the 2:15 mark:
