Former rocker Ted Nugent has lost his mind
What a sad sight you’ll see below. There is former rock n’ roller Ted Nugent, sitting on the convention floor of the recent National Rifle Association convention, wearing a chin mic like he’s selling overpriced pots and pans inside at the Salem Fair. Nugent has gone full-bore gun crazy. He belongs in an asylum somewhere.
“We need to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in November.”
I mean, even Lifetime NRA member and (Johnny-come-lately) gun-right supporter Mitt Romney is dissing the Nugent . . . (until he backpedals on that, too).

This is your brain in drugs….
Anybody defending the Nuge’s remarks? “We need to ride into Washington and cut their heads off”
Paraphrasing but I believe he also called this administration “Criminal”
Unbelievably disgusting.
Dan, quit hijacking every thread into a gun thread already!
They’re not sick of the subject. They’re sick of Dave Hicks, Jack, and I disrupting the antis’ harmonious choir. Sorry for interfering with your unopposed pro-2A bashing.
I always thought Nugent sucked as a guitar player anyway.
Actually, Nugent has always, even in the early years been drug free.
What mind? Ted Nugent is a GREAT argument for gun and people control! If anyone had shot Palin or Bachmann or Willard in effigy, the TPGOP would not wait till Obama was re-elected for their heads to explode. Their silence is deafening…and typical.

Renegade right-winger Ted Nugent recently went on a vicious onstage rant in which he threatened the lives of Democratic presidential candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Decked out in full-on camouflage hunting gear, Nugent wielded two machine guns while raging, “Obama, he’s a piece of sh–. I told him to suck on my machine gun. Hey Hillary,” he continued. “You might want to ride one of these into the sunset, you worthless bitch.” Nugent summed up his eloquent speech by screaming “freedom!”"
Why isn’t he in jail? Threatening the president and secretary of state….quite the birthbagger poster child for responsible gun ownership.
The first 1:38 was right on. Then it got OMG. He’s exactly right, though, on the Supreme Court Justices, that everyone needs to get involved, and that our Attorney General is a criminal.
It’s unfortunate that Nugent discusses such criticism of Obama for soldiers’ injuries in Afghanistan and Iraq, when he never said the same about George W Bush.
There’s all kinds of things to pick Ted apart on in his filibuster here, but his whole rant at the NRA convention is overzealous and misguided.
This conservative columnist sure doesn’t like Nugent! You go girl!
http://www.debbieschlussel.com/1503/the-hypocritical-summer-of-ted-nugent/
“…Nugent–a Draft Dodger–divorced his wife, used his rock star money to gain sole custody of the kids, lived with a teen groupie who raised the kids (he was too busy touring), cheated on his second wife, Shemane, and had a kid outside of wedlock with Karen Gutowski of New Hampshire, with whom he fought against paying child support for years.
**** UPDATE, 02/17/09: That’s in addition to the two other kids Ted Nugent had out of wedlock with two other different women by the time he turned 21. That’s right. Ted Nugent fathered SEVEN kids with FIVE different women, to which only two of whom he was married. ****“
“Cat scratch fever” is a great song. Nuge may be drug free ( I’ve known this since the seventies) But he has always but drinking some weird kool aid.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/08/18/ted-nugent-guilty-of-deer_n_686179.html
Nugent was busted for deer baiting during filming of his short lived reality show and properly fined. He may be drug free but that doesn’t make him a good person.
“Nugent has always, even in the early years been drug free.”
This would explain a lot.
And the sack of crap has the nerve to call out “hippies” for being “cowardly” and living an “irresponsible lifestyle of random sex”? Wow, he puts the hippo in hypocrite!

And then there is this morality tale:
http://books.google.com/books?id=HTMuhxamaFEC&pg=PA134#v=onepage&q&f=false
Nugent is a cretin!
Jesse Jackson said he wanted to castrate The President. Is that worse?
Perfect can’t see my work email here but thanks that’s just right.
it was unintended.
“Jesse Jackson said he wanted to castrate The President.”
Link?
Mind? Mind? Really? Ted Nugent-mind? (dissolve into hysterical uncontrollable laughter).
Art Hill,

I don’t have any problem with responsible gun ownership and I’m no great Obama fan but this is just crazy. NRA members should be upset. The NRA isn’t full of insane machine gun toting crazies. Ted, do everyone a favor and quit making political rants that make responsible owners look bad. Why don’t you go make another episode of Sons of Guns. Kristen may be right. Isn’t threatening the President a federal offense?
Art Hill,
Here’s another Jackson classic:
http://www.skeptictank.org/gen4/gen02379.htm
@18 John Wilburn
Thanks for cleaning up after Henry, he has a tendency to drop his nuggets without any documentation. I have little respect for Jackson, his comment about a-then Illinois senator doesn’t concern me. Nugent not-so-subtly threatened the president a few days ago, big diff.
Art Hill,
Jackson is just slimy. As for cleaning up after Henry, I can’t say anything as I don’t always have the time or desire to assemble links and do all this “research.” Of course I research some things everyday for work, but I don’t save it for ammo in here. Geez, this is a blog, not a term paper. it’s supposed to be fun. At least that’s what I thought. Silly me.
@21
I’ve been informed my first hyphen is in the wrong place. Everybody needs an editor.
Ted Nugent is a lunatic and Romney’s comments show how spineless he is.
Ted played “Journey to the Center of the Mind” with the Amboy Dukes in the 60′s and never recovered, regardless of his claims to no use anything, I find those claims hard to believe. He is subversive and has been for a while now. Also, it gets him press. Sorry he is still associated with rock music.
How did the guy behind such songs as “Wang Dang Sweet Poontang” and the live version of “Wango Tango” which features an in depth description of oral sex, ever become popular with socially conservative types? I guess hating liberals is all it takes to be popular with a certain crowd.
You seem to think Obama has been a good President. I’d be careful talking about anyone else losing their mind.
Nugent has been around for a while, saying stuff that’s about this bad. Nothing really all that new for him. He, like some others, is just promoting himself. There’s actually money in this show.
My question is; who gives him the stage? He shows up in interesting places, like this NRA convention, and rants his drivel, then those who hooked up his microphone pretend to disavow what he says.
They didn’t know what he might say? It’s all orchestrated folks.
“If Barack Obama becomes the president in November again, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year,” Nugent said.
Either one will be fine by me!
So can I ask the question…..
Can anyone name any MAJOR federal legislation that is making gun laws more restrictive since Obama became the president? Without googling, I can’t.
Without googling, I bet you can’t either.
I’d argue that if anything, gun laws have become LESS restrictive in the past 4 years… especially considering our state, but obviously thats because of all the good ole’ boys in our state legislature.
In the words of Frank Zappa…. “Shut Up ‘n Play Yer Guitar”, Ted.
You`re not going to change the man, so change the channel…Isn`t freedom a wonderful thing ? Each of you have a wonderful day doing what you please.
alfaux, you might want to note that NRA people were cheering the cretin.
Leave it to you gun nuts to compare a live mic grousing to a live crowd address.
Debbie, it’s a miracle the man can walk upright. As weak as I thought he was…he’s worse.
Wilbert…not only hating liberals…loving guns helps too.
Too bad ole Ted hasn’t done any drugs…drugs would only improve him.
Art
If you read something besides Democrat newspapers, you would have known about former Democratic Presidential candidate Jesse Jackson’s “I want to castrate Obama” line.
All the feigned outrage here is just the same old pro-White House hypocrisy.
These are the same people who want to see the sick who lack health insurance die.
He belongs in an asylum somewhere.
Dan prefers his rockers to be drugged-out alkies who don’t know where they are half the time. If you’re not that, you belong in an asylum.
This is upside-down world of the left
#30 Scott, we’re back to the same old gun fanatic nuttiness: If Obama does anything to restrict our gun “rights,” he’s trying to take away all our guns. If Obama does nothing to restrict our gun “rights,” he’s trying to take away all our guns. And if gun “rights,” are loosened under Obama, he’s trying to take away all our guns.

No surprise here. Hopefully they keep an eye on him for the foreseeable future.
And check his tax records.
You he really ddidnt mean to chop peoples heads off , you are just scared of people talking down on Obama. I liked what he said , now I know most people on a roanoke times message board prob dont. The roanoke times is a very left leaning news paper so this prob seems real crazy to you. But Obama has to go. Gun rights are about the 21 th most important issue for me … there are so many things wrong … the way you made this article sound I thought it was going to be realy crazy but its not and you know he didnt really mean to chop heads off get a life …Hes trying to stir up energy for his movement for gun owners
Is “vtbowl” pammster? Or perhaps pammster’s English teacher.
vt bowl record,
Perhaps you haven’t been paying attending. Gun rights have been EXPANDING under Obama, of course, both on the state federal level.
Per the NRA, this is “evidence” Obama wants to take all guns. Such conspiracy-mindedness is deep, dark, pathological and supremely neurotic.
Dan, do you really believe Obama will not come out with any gun control next term?
I’m thinking a magazine ban will be the fashionable thing.
John Wilburn.
I don’t know. I don’t have a crystal ball. But, I would never offer as “proof” that he will do something that fact that he has done nothing so far. That just doesn’t compute. It’s crazy thinking.
I really think the tooth fairy is real too.
You people are amazing. Just remember this and FlimFlambaugh next time you want to complain about political language or comments from Hillary Rosen. You people agree with cretins who should be locked up, that kind of hate is damaging to America, then whine like babies when someone dares to tell the truth. Thank God in His Heaven you are not the majority in this country.
On the one hand, there needs to be some kind of friendly wager made as to whether or not Obama will trot out some gun control, but on the other hand, if I win, it’s because we all lose and that’s no reason to celebrate.

“Why isn’t he [Nugent] in jail? Threatening the president and secretary of state….”
Why isn’t Nugent in jail for threatening speech that was a poor taste joke at worst?!?! A better question is why isn’t Eric Holder in jail for his role in getting people killed? Sandi has been silent on this one. She said Eric Holder’s appointment was one of Obama’s achievements because Holder is black. I can’t think like you guys.
Oh, I’ll celebrate!
Careful with the “she said” distortion John Wilburn. I said that was a “civil rights achievement” because he was our first black Attorney General. Now, unless you are willing to concede that Bush should be in jail for his role in torturing prisoners, getting innocent people killed in a place we had no business being, and will chalk up the more than 4000 war dead and tens of thousands severely wounded to him, I would be careful about such “blanket” accusations. Or has the criminal investigating supposed crime already decided the outcome and informed you? What was that about judging before all the evidence was in?
And I think you are, as usual, wrong:
“I do believe there are people at main Justice who ultimately do need to go…I have never accused you of having personal knowledge.”
http://www.mainjustice.com/2012/02/02/issa-still-wants-heads-to-roll-at-justice-but-softens-tone-toward-holder/
Guns are scary. Ted Nugget shouldn’t even be allowed to speak in public. The NRA shouldn’t be allowed to have a meeting where they are shooting guns in the air like Dirty Harvey. Crazy loonies.
JohnW, I guess since we have a black president, joking about blowing his head off is only in ” bad taste”
Of course, the inbreds at an NRA klavern would be ill equipped to recognize the difference.
Hey it’s free speech protected by the first amendment. Get over it!
Yeah Maloof, it was a free vote in November 2008 too, and you people have yet to “Get over it!” Hypocrite.
I honestly believe that the vitriol we’re seeing coming from folks like Suzie, Maloof, Matt H, pammala, etc. is advance sour grapes on November’s election.
They know that Romney can’t win; that’s he’s damaged in many unrepairable ways that go way beyond the dog on the car roof stuff.
know that Romney can’t win
Funny. Gallup doesn’t know it yet. And they’re campaigning hard for Idiot Boy. LOL.

Dan
I suspect that the LOL/LMAO crew will cease that laughter come November.
Because that “A” that they’re always LO’ing is going to get a severe kicking and will be doing more C’ing than L’ing.
Oh, they know it. They know every day of their lives that the rest of this nation is not the rabid haters they are and it infuriates them. Sorry, America is just not that in to you. As Maloof so brilliantly said: “Get over it!”
The best part about Romney is he was broken before Obama ever had to lay a glove on him. The GOP did all the dirty work. I got yer “Etch A Sketch” Romney.
Polls, lots and lots of money, spin, lies and impassioned flagellation will proceed his defeat to keep it interesting, and I agree the hate factor and ODS will keep it close, but make no mistake, Willard is indeed your John Kerry and get ready for the bombs to land in very fertile, Wall Street, Corporate Raider, Rich and Powerful, elitist, aloof, stiff, plastic, animal abuse, money is all that matters, crawled over people to get there, odd faith habits and rituals, soil.
Romney is not nearly as impressive as John Kerry.
Romney is not nearly as impressive as John Kerry.
If the only criterion for impressiveness is being a goofy bastard, Dan is right. Kerry wins.
I don’t think Kerry ever got over the fact that America saw GWB as the star quarterback while Kerry was viewed as the third-string kicker. Some guys just have star power like that. Bush was one of them.
“I don’t think Kerry ever got over the fact that America saw GWB as the star quarterback while Kerry was viewed as the third-string kicker. Some guys just have star power like that. Bush was one of them.”
Bush was a college cheerleader. Kerry was on the Yale lacrosse, soccer, hockey and fencing teams.
#49 PU, note that until my comment nobody even took any notice of your schtick this time. Time to work on a new routine.
#62 Ohhh, a college cheeleader. How exciting.
skewz….ever hear of a campaign of lies called Swift boat..
Yea..old Dub and his henchmen were true stars….yea Mission Accomplished.

lacrosse, soccer, hockey and fencing teams.
Wow. What a manly lineup of sports. Kerry must have gone to PH. LMAO.
#62 Ohhh, a college cheeleader. How exciting.
Oh, I don’t know. A male cheerleader gets to hoist scores of beautiful women by the crotch. From their standpoint, I’m sure that’s a pretty good gig.
Wow, if Obama wins re-election, I wonder in what fashion Nugent “will die” or what he will do to be incarcerated? He didn’t leave himself much wiggle room with that statement. And why would you want to chop heads off when all your NRA buddies have their guns?
#67 Not back in Bush’s day, suze.
And Kerry could have gone to Salem, Hidden Valley or Cave Spring for lacrosse or soccer, or any other area school for soccer. Of course it’s true that none of those schools are as good as PH in soccer or lacrosse, so Kerry probably would have preferred the winning school. Or he could have gone to Virginia Tech or Liberty for pretty decent club ice hockey.
Anyway, if troll is suggesting none of those are “manly” sports, she’s never seen them. What an ignoramus.
#66: “lacrosse, soccer, hockey and fencing teams. Wow. What a manly lineup of sports. Kerry must have gone to PH. LMAO.”
PH? It’s true that bloodlusting millionaire wimp Wayne LaPierre went to school there (note his French surname), but Tony Atlas might disagree that it has not produced anyone manly.
Hockey not a manly sport? Tell that to Dave “the Hammer” Schultz, who played for the Salem (Va.) Rebels before becoming one of the most bruising enforcers in the NHL with The Philadelphia Flyers’ Broad Street Bullies championship teams. As male cheerleader George W. Bush would have said in his thin tenor, “Yay team!!! Way to go, boys, you’re doing a heckuva job”.
“Oh, I don’t know. A male cheerleader gets to hoist scores of beautiful women by the crotch. From their standpoint, I’m sure that’s a pretty good gig.”
Is this really the kind of thing a good Catholic should be talking about? Touching female’s crotches?
I thought these wholesome, all-American cheerleaders were supposed to refrain from lust, sex, etc. Are you saying there’s a sexual element to cheerleading?
I bet Pflugrad liked it when she got hoisted up by her girly parts.
Suzie really needs to keep her fantasies off the message boards.
Both Bush and Kerry donned flight jackets. Bush looked every bit the fighter pilot he was. Kerry looked like the doofus trying hard to be a tough guy.
GWB just has that natural confident swagger, which proved very helpful in shutting down the terrorists.
Arrested? Really people? He’s a shock jock that nobody listens to anyway, and there was no threat, veiled or otherwise. If you want someone arrested for what he said (which was hideous, but not illegal), then there’s not much hope for the first amendment either.
And waste tax payers money sending the secret service out to talk to Ted Nugent? Perhaps they asked him where the good brothels are. Even the secret service blew it off as nothing after they talked.
“Bush looked every bit the fighter pilot he was.”
“GWB just has that natural confident swagger….”
Yes, he does!

“The meeting could not have gone better”
In other words, “I think I’ll keep my damn mouth shut.”
Interesting day.
The NRA has taken down Ted Nugent’s rant from their website. Virtually all the Republicans have repudiated him— except for Mitt Romney, John Boehner, Eric Cantor, and Mitch McConnell.
And the Romney flips officially started today. After proclaiming for months that the Arizona and Alabam immigration laws should be uased as models for the nation, and that the federal govt. should get out of the way and let the states do it and drop the lawsuit challenging the Arizona law, today he began backing off in an attempt to get back some of that Latino support. With his Latino support holdin in there at a super 14%,
now he says that he never said the Arizona law should be a model for the nation and maybe that stop and challenge for papers provision might not be the way he would handle it after all. Etch-a-Sketch!
“That natural confident swagger” like a bowlegged Texan who has spent too many days in the saddle and too much time out in the hot sun frying his brain.Lost a lot of brain cells due to sun stroke when he couldn’t afford to lose all that many.

Who gives a fig what Susan Collins thinks?
Bush walks like a kid with a load in his diaper. I guess that could be considered “swaggar”.
Nugent promises to be dead or in jail when Obama gets reelected. I’m good either way, although like all of his ilk I doubt he’ll follow through.
And W was never more “manly” than when shaking his pom-poms for the crowd.
#84 “Bush walks like a kid with a load in his diaper.”
Good one, Kristen.
Kristen,
The swagger is because he believes his load doesn’t stink.
Ron! LOL
The left will never get over the fact that 0bama has never and could never come close to Bush’s success as president.
The American people would overwhelmingly return to the prosperity of the Bush years if given a chance instead of enduring what 0bama brought us.
“Sounds like Contradad got a cheap thrill from reading that.” –Screwzie
You’re my cheap thrill, kitten.
With Regards to Dan and Sandi Do you understand the concept of a metaphor? Surely a journalist with a degree from Maryland knows what a metaphor is? Especially concerning Nugent’s statement? Now Dan says it’s sour grapes about Romney losing in November that’s what a call a “Danspin” (new word)when Dan can’t win an argument he changes the subjuect or makes inflammatory statements to redirect attention to something else. As for whether Romney or Obama wins way to early in the process to predict.
I know what a “metaphor” is. And I know it has no bearing on this subject.
#90 Uhhh, Maloof, you obviously don’t understand the concept of a metaphor any better than suzie understands what irony is.
It’s clear Sir uncle ted is working for the blue blood Rockefeller’s and anyone that don’t understand that is living under a rock.
