Rocker is all talk as he calls Obama, Hillary vile names

So Ted Nugent roams a concert stage while toting automatic weapons, calls Barack Obama "a piece of -----" and says he told Obama to suck on one of his machine-guns. He also calls Hillary Clinton a "worthless *****" and Dianne Feinstein a "worthless *****."

That Nugent, he's a man's man. He talks the talk and walks the walk, right?

Except when it was time to register for the draft during the Vietnam era. By his own admission, Nugent stopped all forms of personal hygiene for a month and showed up for his draft board physical in pants caked with his own urine and feces, winning a deferment. Creative!

Sounds like Cheney...with his "other priorities" during Nam. Real tough talkers though.

Why does anybody care what this dope says? Why does anybody care what that idiot Sean Penn says? I don't get it. The actors/pop stars usually high school drop outs, couldn't even make it through that milestone...yet they are now experts on foreign policy. Laughable. My favorite is Charley Sheen. Proud drop out of Santa Monica C.C. Think he flunked out of Palisades H.S. if my memory serves me. But he is an expert at structural engineering and is convinced that the World Trade Center was a planned demolition! What a fruitcake. His handlers must reel whenever he opens his mouth.

Then there is Rosie O'Donnell. A genius that should put her great brain power into training herself to not reach for another donut, not how to run America.

There are exceptions, Robin Williams comes to mind, I think he actually got a degree from a decent uni...but it was in fine arts, so I really don't think his goofus opinion on the war in Iraq is any more important than the guy who cooks my french fries.

So, get a bee in yer bonnet about some old f*rt, never really poplular rock musician...but why you care about what he says is beyond me.

Default Ted Nugent...Silly A--............................

Maybe he really feels the way he talks about Hilary, Obama et al......Like another poster says who cares.......He had a few minor hits in the seventies and he used to do concerts that were fairly well attended but so did so many other "Rockers"...He gained noteriety touting his machine gun exploits.....shooting at targets on his land not at any "Enemy" of course.

Funny but when he was young and full of **** and vinegar no pun intended he chose to play psycho to evade fighting in Viet Nam where he would have been able to expel all the machine gun rounds he wanted and then some.....At 19 -20 years old at war you just don't care all that much...Guess Ted cared so he caked himself up in #1 and #2........Just another pretender.
Lots of that going around........................................

well as a guitar player and one who champions the 2nd amendment I can't help but like him in that respect.

I feel strongly against the above mentioned politicians.But I agree that vulgar name calling of them in public is not the right approach.

If he did what he did during the draft then I have lost a certain amount of respect for him.

And agreed that celebrities over all are ones to be enjoyed for their entertainment but to dismiss their political spouts.

A lot of threads point out hypocrisy on both sides of the political aisle. This is just another one of them. I think this helps the left a little bit though. The left has taken a lot of hits on this celebrity support issue, no reason the right shouldn't too.

Basically, it really helps serve to take the celebrity issue off of the table. If both sides are vulnerable, it makes it more likely neither uses it to their advantage for fear of being "called out."

That's the first time I've ever heard of the military rejecting someone because he was a slob. That tactic probably wouldn't work now. With the army as desperate as it is for warm bodies to soldier in Iraq, I suppose a guy could go into a recruiter's office stinking like an outhouse in July and the army would sign him up and then order him to take a shower.

That "story" isn't true.

Uncle Ted was enrolled in college back then.

Actually, that's the only thing wrong with all of the chickenhawks - their pants.

They are still full of sh*t.

Ted Nugent is marketing to the people who still buy his records and goes to his concerts. He has established a target market/niche market and he is pandering to them. I seriously doubt that he does all the things that he says he does. He's an entertainer - a celebrity and he knows that you make money when you become someone that people what to hear, see and identify with. Taking him seriously is foolish.

I'm sure he did not get many dates when he was waiting to be deferred. LOL Honestly, how could anyone STAND themselves if they were that disgustingly filthy?

By the way your link s dead.
