Ted Nugent does the impossible - embarrasses RWers at Perry inaug
Rocker Ted Nugent Performs At Texas Gov's Inaugural Ball With Machines Guns, A Confederate Flag T-Shirt, "Shouting Offensive Remarks About Non-English Speakers"...

Associated Press | January 18, 2007 06:38 PM

Hours after Gov. Rick Perry kicked off his second full term in office, Ted Nugent helped him celebrate at a black-tie gala, but not all attendees were pleased by the rocker's performance.

Using machine guns as props, Nugent, 58, appeared onstage as the final act of the inaugural ball wearing a cutoff T-shirt emblazoned with the Confederate flag and shouting offensive remarks about non-English speakers, according to people who were in attendance.

Idiot was relegated to doing state fairs 10 years ago as it is; infomercial hell is not far behind. And what a smashing brand of products that he most likely will endorse at 3 in the morning...fishing lures, spray on scents to fool woodland creatures, and the latest run of propane and propane accessories.

He comes up here about every other year to play our state fair, and is ALWAYS an obnoxious jerk. I can't stand that guy. The main reason he comes up here is so he can kill something.

25. He needs to get back on the bottle....
...The Nuge is scared that we are going to take his guns away. When in reality we just need tougher restrictions on them and eventually, someday, remove them from society..Which will come to pass. The right to bare arms has out lived its usefulness, England and France gave up on this continent a long time ago.

If he was wondering why his records never do very well, I think his moronic comments and behavior can answer that for him.

33. I Wonder If He Wowed Them With His Draft Induction Story...
From Wiki:

Nugent was draft age during the Vietnam war. In the December 15, 1990 issue of the Detroit Free Press Magazine, Nugent was quoted as saying that 30 days before his draft board physical, he stopped all forms of personal hygiene. The last 10 days, he ingested nothing but Vienna sausages and Pepsi; and a week before his physical, he stopped using bathrooms altogether, virtually living inside pants caked with his own excrement, stained by his urine. That spectacle won Nugent a deferment, he says. "... but if I would have gone over there, I'd have been killed, or I'd have killed, or I'd killed all the hippies in the foxholes...I would have killed everybody." In a 2006 interview published in The Independent, Nugent denies ever saying (or doing) that. According to Nugent's current website, he enrolled at Oakland Community College and took a student deferment


I have my own personal encounter with the "Motor City Madman" where he was a guest on a talk show discussing his hunting...a caller asked "do you take your wife when you go bow-hunting". Nugent replies "you don't leave your poontang at home". Damn if that board operator slipped on hitting the dump button that morning...

:rofl:
