Given that you need to be high to enjoy one of his shows, he could start with his core audience, see how that works out for him


oh and nice of him to say "Obama, he's a piece of shiat, and I told him to suck on my machine gun" on stage. How very American of him

 
cryinoutloud [TotalFark] 2009-01-15 10:17:03 PM  
Maybe he'll shoot himself accidentally.

So this Nugent person is an entertainer of some sort? I thought he was just a brainless jackass.

GF used to work at the House of Blues . I Saw him a while back right after 911. God, it was like being at a redneck hillbilly youth rally. No offense to the hillbillys. And yes I was very stoned and the show still sucked major ass.

Ted. Obama's going to say no. Now, when he does, here's what I want you to do.

Go away.
Don't go away mad.
Just go away.

Wow... ya know, I was all for his work on defending the 2nd (albeit a kinda of wacky, twisted sense of defense), and made me think that because of that, he would have had the idea of "hey, you want to smoke pot? Whatever. Like drinking, just don't be a farking idiot about it."

Seeing as how he says Americans who rock out a joint in their private homes are "aiding and abetting the enemies of America. Case closed", he seems more like a damn tyrant who, ironically enough, wants everyone to own a gun.

Priorities... he's got them all wrong.

 
El Freak [TotalFark] 2009-01-15 10:36:09 PM  
Ya know who else hates you Ted? People with functioning ears and taste in music.

The only thing remotely noteworthy about Ted as a guitar player is the fact that he manages to play hollowbodies with tons of overdrive without squealing feedback. That's pretty much it.

Kudos. Far more entertaining than anything ol' Teddy's done in this lifetime.

I thought you were a vastly overrated jackass in the 70's, too.

Sometimes I wonder if he's just screwing with people with what he says. I know that I most certainly would be.

It does seem like he hasn't thought that all the way through, doesn't it? Generally, when you try to make everyone hate you by becoming a dictator, you try to make sure the populace can't effectively retaliate.

shivashakti [TotalFark] 2009-01-15 11:32:13 PM  
He thinks entirely too much of himself...and it's a damned shame that others still pay attention to what he has to say.

By the way, wasn't his first hit song with the Amboy Dukes "Journey To The Center Of Your Mind"?

 
SilentStrider [TotalFark] 2009-01-16 12:04:05 AM  
Gecko Gingrich: Wasn't that Mötley Crüe?

yup.

I figured using one of the most notorious drug-addled bands of the 80's to tell Ted to get lost would be more fun. I was right.

 
Sgt Otter [TotalFark] 2009-01-16 12:20:33 AM  
cryinoutloud: Maybe he'll shoot himself accidentally.

I'm surprised he hasn't. I've seen a few clips of him slinging loaded rifles around stage, muzzle-flagging his bandmates, and pointing them in directions where he hasn't checked to see if the area is clear first.

There's a photo of him with an AR-15 loaded with a drum magazine slung over his shoulder, pointed directly at his drummer.

As a former Range Safety Officer, watching that dumbshiat makes my blood boil.

I doubt any of those people could be bothered to so much as notice you, let alone hate you.

Get the fark over yourself.

FlashHarry: fark that draft dodging coward.

Hey Ted, what's that smell in your drawers?

That guy had his chance to put his money where his mouth is 40 years ago. He's a deluded idiot overcompensating for his cowardice. I actually feel sorry for him. Ted needs to shoot guns, hunt and play guitar to forget about being a chickenhawk in the moment his country actually needed him.

 
harryasaboy 2009-01-16 12:48:59 AM  
Doesn't look like Ted's tour schedule (pops) will interfere.

 
Peaceboy [TotalFark] 2009-01-16 01:11:28 AM  
Ted was in the Amboy Dukes back in the 60's, whose biggest hit was "Journey to the Center of the Mind" and he was the only one in the band who didn't know what it was about. If you're too clueless to tell what your own bandmates are up to, you probably shouldn't be administrating United States drug policy.

 
Lionel Mandrake [TotalFark] 2009-01-16 03:19:07 AM  
This guy is the Grand Pooh-Bah/Celestial Emperor Most High of cowardly chickenhawks.

You're nuts, Ted...and not in a good way. In a very, very BAD way.

And you're a pussy. And that's never good.

Naa, Him, Kid Rock and Metalica bringing in the New Year in 2000 farking ROCKED the Palace - that is by far the most entertaining thing Tedlies done - that and allow people to shoot animals thereby pissing off the PETA types :P

DarnoKonrad 2009-01-16 05:10:48 AM  
He also denies ever urinating on a nun, but notes to Texas Monthly, "believe me, had I the opportunity, I probably would have" and, "many of them deserved it!"

Oh, Ted you rapscallion. Every nun I ever met would stomp your guts out for that kind of behavior.

Lawnchair 2009-01-16 05:13:49 AM  
Your hatred of hippies, Ted, as implemented in policy by Reagan, is about to lead to the collapse of the Mexican government, and a situation with about 11 million refugees in the border states. In those refugees will be several thousand bloodlust narcoterrorists. If you'd go die in a shootout with a few of those, Ted, it'd be real helpful.

I'm pretty damn sure I'd have the same feeling for any "lib" who is a militaristic jackass that shiat his pants to avoid being drafted.

But most importantly, if he were a "lib" he probably wouldn't say/do those things, so maybe your right.

EL_FABREZ 2009-01-16 05:25:01 AM  
Every American who smokes dope, manufactures, buys or sells meth or uses any illegal drugs is aiding and abetting the enemies of America.

I don't think this guy should be in charge of anything since he doesn't know what the fark he's talking about. Weed comes from terrorists? Really? Didn't some anti-pot group try that and got ridiculed?

I personally know the person that grows mine, if not, I don't think the Canadians are really having to deal with drug related crime. So I'm not going to feel guilty when I buy product from up north.

The problem with drugs is in the legal system. When you fark somebody up over a nonviolent drug offense it tends to ruin their life. You know like being in prison. Try getting a job after that. So they tend to stay poor and have to turn to crime. And we also get farked for having to pay for them to stay in jail.

I wish there was something I could take so I don't get all worked up about how dumb this hick is.

The interesting thing is, as far as drug production goes, the "war on terror" has created the largest increase in heroin supply in decades. Whether you think the Taliban were good bad or indifferent, they nearly completely ended Afghanistan's poppy production near the end of the 90s. Post invasion, Afghanistan went back to being the number one exporter of heroin.

In other words if what Teddy boy is right, everyone who supported the war on terror, is basically a traitor, as he is implying. Nothing has help fund AQ and the Taliban via drugs then our ineffectual invasion of Afghanistan.

Dear Ted,

Please report for duty for special ops in tribal Pakistan.
The world needs you and your awesome ability to shoot defenseless animals could really be applied in the field.
Bring your cowboy hat and weapons.


Thanks

Hmmm...Fundamentally his sentiments are not that much different then Rolling Joe Lieberman, only Joe isn't mentally retarded. Aside from security issues, he is pretty much as liberal as you can get. If you notice, he really wasn't warmly received the last 6 years. In other words you have no idea what the fark you are talking about.

"[Drug traffickers] are as evil an adversary as the voodoo terrorist Taliban our soldiers face in Afghanistan," writes Nugent in a Thursday editorial.

Dude's makin' his own jemken and doesn't realize it...that's the problem.

I mean, how disconnected from reality do you have to be to go from
"Suck on my rifle, you unAmerican piece of shiat!"
to "Give me the job of Drug Czar. I'd be good at it because people hate me!"



/ Fortunately, "WTF?" doesn't make your brain hurt like the cognitive dissonance does...

I'm not sure what's sadder, this angry, impotent joke of a man or people who take him seriously and idolize him.
