I Wholeheartedly and Vehemently Support the Second Amendment, but...

Liberty -vs- Tyranny
This sight fully and wholeheartedly supports the second amendment rights of all verifiability sane and mentally stable Americans to bear arms. Indeed, just as the founding fathers so correctly understood it is crucial to a free society that it's citizens are insured the right to bear arms. It is the only way in which the individual citizen has to protect themselves against the threat of a tyrannical government.
However, especially in light of the FACT that President Obama has not threatened to take away this right, rocker Ted Nugent's remarks are just a bit over the top and really constitutes nothing more than extreme right wing hyperbole and propaganda.
Here is what the rocker had to say. Ted at the 56 second mark of the video. CNN certainly did it's best to tip toe around Ted's remarks while giving great extended play to Debbie (Wacko) Wassermann Schultz's OPINION.
Cool it Ted! You're NOT helping the cause. In fact you are turning rational thinking conservatives/libertarians off with this over heated and dangerous rhetoric. Sorry if the truth hurts.

CNN - "If Barack Obama becomes the president in November again, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year," Nugent said, according to a video posted on YouTube by the NRA. "If you can't go home and get everybody in your lives to clean house in this vile, evil America hated administration, I don't even know what you're made out of."
He accused the government of "wiping its ass with the Constitution you're living under a rock some place" and labeled members of the Obama administration, including the vice president, attorney general and secretary of state "criminals."
"We need to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in November. Am I, any questions?" Nugent said.

Yeah, I'd say that this guy is a little unstable and whose comments make his music look almost nuanced by comparison.
ReplyDeleteI'm not convinced he's unstable. It is likely as much publicity as anything. That being said his comment was way over the top. Even given the much worse lapses of some of the lefty loose screws the conservatives/libertarians need to do a better job of policing themselves.
DeleteI don't have a problem with the left going after this guy one bit. It would just be nice if they occasionally went after with verve some of their own rabble-rousers; that Mike Malloy lunatic, that labor guy who said that "sometimes you gotta get a little bloody", etc.. I obviously won't be holding my breath.
DeleteFor certain Will. The lefty loonies will NEVER police their own. They are FAR too Emotional to ever do that!
Delete.
ReplyDeleteGet real. This draft-dodging loser is a COWARD! Nugent is not man enough to act. If anything he is a great representative for Murdoch Media/Fox Networks; play the TeaBagging Party as chumps with all talk and no action.

DeleteEma, do you see anybody here defending Mr. Nugent?
DeleteEma has a real fixation on Fox News, solely due to the fact that Fox does not fit her own narrow ideology, and dares to report what she does not want reported.
ReplyDeleteWe should printed up bumper stickers: "Watch Fox News. Because ignorant people don't want you to"
Yeah cool it Ted don't let America know what most right-wingers think (those herein excepted). And let's turn this into clean you're own house and tu quoque fallacies...
ReplyDeleteYeesh! Of course, right-wingers who want to claim poor poor Presidnet W(orst Ever) was subjected to far worse attacks must sweep this or the Lord of Parliament putting a bounty on PResident Obama under the rug because it undercuts the false narrative most conservatives (those herein again excepted) have been peddling for years.
