what a surprise
most romney-republican voting people in america are like this
despite having a few alibi african americans in the party does not make the party tolerant and educated
People like Hulk hogan live in the 50s listening to Pat Boone and thinking that ”raping white girls” is the speciality of african americans
Racist pig. Calling blacks the N word all those. You are trash Hulk. Racist trash. Glad he was fired by WWE.

41:20 ” … my mother is panamanian. My mom was REALLY DARK… “
another lie
i watched the show which was aired by mtv and her mother was blue eyed and pale
how he can say REALLY DARK
http://www.peoples.ru/art/cinema/actor/hogan/hogan_2009010616281916.jpg
SO THATs dark?
My conclusion is she’s really Panamanian and can tan easily becoming very dark although she’s white (at least no evident admix in her features). Some fair people just cannot tan. That’s what he means probably.
he is stupid and from yesterday
he thinks black guys are all bad boys and on the street the whole day
but i think he would prefer that his daughter would date black guys like CARLTON BANKS of FRESH PRINCE OF BEL AIR :-))
Carlton was nice and smart so that makes sense
