Will Fox News Finally Distance Itself From Ted Nugent?

Well, it appears that Fox News’ pal Ted “suck on this” Nugent has finally crossed the line. It seems that the Secret Service is investigating him for comments he made last Sunday at an NRA meeting. The Secret Service views his remarks - that if President Obama wins the 2012 election, Nugent will be either dead or in jail - as a threat. Nugent also made a disturbing comparison of voting for Romney to violent rebellion - which doesn't go well with his other implied threat.

If you can’t get a couple of hundred people each, each of you - I'll bet some of you could probably get a couple thousand - your goal should be to get a couple thousand people, per person who’s here, to vote for Mitt Romney in November.

If you don’t know our government is wiping its ass with the constitution, you’re living under a rock someplace... and we’ve got a President and Attorney General who doesn’t even like the constitution. We’ve got four Supreme Court Justices who don’t believe in the Constitution.

Does everyone know here that four of the Supreme Court justices not only determined you don’t have the right to keep and bear arms, four Supreme Court justices signed their name to a declaration that Americans have no fundamental right to self-defense. That sounds like a stoned hippie - that doesn’t sound like a Supreme Court anything. It sounds like a supremely intellectually vacuous punk. To think that a human could think that humans don’t have a basic right to self-defense is so bizarre to me, as to my brain can’t accept the information- and if you want more of those kinds of evil, anti-American people in the Supreme Court, then don’t get involved and let Obama take office again.

Because I’ll tell you this right now: if Barack Obama becomes the president in November, again, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year. Being at the NRA event, God Bless ya, good indicator, but if you can’t go home and get everybody in your lives to clean house of this vile, evil America Hating Administration, I don’t even know what you’re made out of.

If you can’t galvanize and promote and recruit and get people to vote for Mitt Romney, we’re done. We’ll be a suburb of Indonesia next year. Our President, our Attorney General, Our Vice President, Hillary Clinton… they’re criminals. They’re criminals. And if you take that adamant “We The People” defiance - remember, we’re America because we defied the king! We didn’t negotiate and compromise with the king, we defied the Emperors! We are patriots, we are Bravehearts- we need to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in November!

Should I even pretend I’m going to hold my breath waiting for Fox News to condemn this the way it did the “phony war on women” Or Hillary Rosen? Or should I just wait to find out when the image rehab is scheduled?

Visitor: I been on RW radio and hosts, so if it’s not hosted somewhere, I probably missed it. The stuff on Fox News and Fox Nation tried to have it both ways, most notably Megyn Kelly.

My big question right now is whether or not Fox News has the balls to call out mealy-mouthed Mitt on how he handled it. I would LOVE to see someone blindside him with that lie he was caught in over at NBC News.

Well, it’s obvious that the FoxGOPTV pukes are not going to distance themselves from shitfilled Sploogent. In fact, mike Phuckabee defended him and said that he didn’t find any of Splooge’s language offensive or threatening. Really. And Phuckabee calls himself a christian.

And don’t expect any of the neocons to denounce Splooge either. Inhofe was defending him too.

As I said earlier…in neoconnuttia calling ignorant teabagger goddess palin a c*nt is a crime worthy of capital punishment, but threatening the life of a Democratic President and other Democratics is patriotic.

neocons are hypocrites.

I grew up not far from Gilchrist (16153 Patton). In my neighborhood, the rules were simple: We didn’t always agree but we understood we were in this together. Guys like the selfish Mr. Nugent would not have fared well in our hood.

So…funny story: I grew up at 20300 Gilchrist Avenue, Detroit, Michigan. [I clearly have no secrets left: http://www.newshounds.us/johnny_dollar_has_proven_himself_to_be_a_very_dangerous_person04182012 ] This was 1 block and 3 houses south of the infamous 8 Mile. David Palmer lived 5 houses north of me, on the other side of Hessel. David was the drummer for the Amboy Dukes and there were times they practiced in David’s garage. I was 14-15. When the band rehearsed all the local kids would gather at the end of the driveway and listen. We’d get yelled at if we left the sidewalk and got any closer. Never had any contact with Ted Nugent even tho’, oddly enough, I helped move their equipment on and off stage at least once.

With all my love,
Headly Westerfield

When I couldn’t sleep last night, I found this posted in the Examiner’s night time updates. I sent it to Ellen for a heads up on how much this is gonna escelate the story, tell me if you can figure out why:

http://www.examiner.com/liberal-in-baltimore/mitt-romney-swipes-at-ted-nugent-with-velvet-glove-nearly-striking-him-with-it

âDivisive language is offensive no matter what side of the political aisle it comes from,â Romney spokesperson Andrea Saul told TPM. âMitt Romney believes everyone needs to be civil.â

Um, Mitt? You actively (and personally) sought Nugent’s endorsement knowing he was talking like this a month ago. So try again.

Will Fox News Finally Distance Itself From Ted Nugent?

Sure — as soon as Sean Hannity follows through on that promise to get waterboarded . . .

Ted who?

Just think back to 2003 when the right and Fox went ballistic over the Dixie Chicks.

Perhaps Fox should bring on Laura Ingraham, the author of the book Just Shut Up and Sing, and get her thoughts on Tedâs comments. She had no problems sharing with us her opinions on the Dixie Chicks, and I wonder if that book title applies to Republicans?

I believe that the sanest of Hannity’s skewed panel last night brought this up, but Hannity dodged it.

Here’s a question: Has Nugent ever donated to the GOP or directly to their presidential candidates? And if so, will Fox News trumpet the idea that the GOP should give the money back?

Yes he has gone too far,investigate ,then put him away and throw away the key.KKKlannitys friend is a very dangerous man and since Seannie likes him so much they should be locked up together.

Let’s have Teddy tell the story of when, during Vietnam, draft day came upon him.

Visitor 55 commented 2012-04-18 09:45:00 -0400 · Flag

I’ll be surprised if the FoxGOPTV pukes do distance themselves from Sploogent. As we all know, Sploogent is kkklannity’s friend and he will defend him to the end. I expect the FoxGOPTV pukes to claim Sploogent was joking…wink wink.

Also remember, in the FokkksNashun, calling ignorant teabagger goddess palin a c*nt is a capital offense, but threatening the life of the President and all Democratics is patriotic.

Nuggie’s threat to assassinate our President is OK in the Fux Nation cesspool because 1) he’s a great Merkan, 2) KKKlannity likes his music, and 3) Bill Maher once said something critical of Snow Snooki.

Ted the Family Guy

He has had two wives and has eight children, including three out of wedlock in two liaisons almost 30 years apart.
In the late 1960s, prior to his first marriage, Nugent fathered a boy, Ted (Mann) and a girl, whom he gave up for adoption in infancy. In 2005 Nugent was involved in a legal battle for not paying enough child support.
In 1978, Nugent began a relationship with seventeen-year-old Hawaii native Pele Massa. Due to the age difference they could not marry so Nugent joined Massa’s parents in signing documents to make himself her legal guardian, an arrangement that Spin magazine ranked in October 2000 as #63 on their list of the “100 Sleaziest Moments in Rock”

Here’s my answer to the title of this thread:

Yes — when you see cows dancing the bossa nova.

Wow, the kind of toxic shit Ted Nugent spews really is appalling. I used to have a best friend that liked this guy… I wonder what vile Repugnant piece of shit he’s getting his lessons from now?

The day after Hilary Rosen made her comment, that was Fox’s lede article for the entire day. They’re not giving this the same pride of place. It’s not on their homepage. Of course, if they did run it, the Fox fans would all be agreeing that Obama should be killed. Remember the Fox Nation thread about Dr. Tiller which had to be taken down because of all the pro-life homicidal commentary!

Again, imagine how boring stupid would be if not for “One Hit Wonder” and others from the cult that is “conservatism”, not to mention the threat posed by their total contempt for the sixty five million Americans who elected BO in an open and free election.

Bob Roberts commented 2012-04-18 01:11:22 -0400 · Flag

Nope, instead Faux will bring up all of the “hateful” things said by liberals who no one ever picks on or comments on by the “mainstream” media and claim Ted is just a great ’Merican voice his opinion like the Constitution says he can.

Average American Patriot commented 2012-04-18 00:14:17 -0400 · Flag

Almost forgot.

No.

The Fox gNOpig Propaganda Network and KKKlownnity won’t throw great ’murkan Turd Nugent under the bus.
