Musician Ted Nugent suggested the choice between President Obama and GOP nominee Mitt Romney was a blatant as a choice between good and evil.

When asked by the New Times Broward-Palm Beach what bands would represent Obama and Romney, the Romney supporting rocker said, "Out and out politicians are anathema to rock-n-roll, so I hesitate to attempt to connect the two. But on important issues, I am saddened to admit that Obama represents everything bad about humanity and Romney pretty much all that is good. It is really that stark."

In mid- April, Nugent's disdain for Obama came to light when he made potentially threatening remarks towards the president. "If Barack Obama becomes the president in November, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year," he said. "If you can't go home and get everybody in your lives to clean house in this vile, evil, America-hating administration, I don't even know what you're made of."

Loony

"Possibly"

 

[Guevara]

Romney represents ...all that is good. I can't believe anyone actually thinks this. Even Romney's supporters would probably rather have a different R on the ballot.

 

[bjork]

Remember when Ted Nugent was relevant? Me neither.

 

[ConfusingJazz]

I would like to make a list of the worst of humanity, and see how he justifies Obama as the worst of it.

 

[Princess Carl]

Poor man is trying so hard to stay relevant

 

[TacticalFox88]

Really? I'd hesitate to call ANY politician outright evil, with the sole exception being Dick Cheney. But Obama? Of all people? Over Romney? Who's going to screw the middle class HARD if he's elected?

You'd have to have delusions on a massive scale to even entertain such a notion.

 

[Verdre]

Nevermind. Old quote isn't that old.

 

[Borgnine]

You wanna get hauled in again buddy?

 

[Salvor.Hardin]

I'm just going to leave this here.

 

[Manos: The Hans of Fate]

Guy is a draft dodging and game law violating schmuck.

 

[Slayer-33]

The amount of hate (racism) that still fills this country is quite embarrassing.

I don't fucking understand it.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Who is Ted Nugent?

Romney represents ...all that is good. I can't believe anyone actually thinks this. Even Romney supports would probably rather have a different R on the ballot.

If he were talking about abortion and/or gay marriage I can see how a lot of people could construe the Obama administration as "evil".

 

[freenudemacusers]

"Possibly"

I remember his reality show.

Any doubt went out the window real quick.

 

[blame space]

at what point does a county fair become a white pride event?

 

[soundahfekz]

Fuck ted Nugent.

 

[Silas Lang]

I can understand disagreeing with his positions or policies...but evil? Scary people think (and vote) this way. Guess its easier to jump to ridiculous conclusions instead of actually using some brain cells though.

 

[Bulbo Urethral Baggins]

Uncle Ted, you are the best.

don't forget sorta creepy pedophile

 

[SturokBGD]

He doesn't know what he's saying, he's got the cat scratch fever.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

sounds like a great guy to have at parties.

 

[Maddocks]

here he come again now baby, like a dog in heat.

 

[Rentahamster]

I'm sure we all expressed equal displeasure at the coarsening of public discourse when Bush/Cheney were called "evil" too, right?

 

[NoRéN]

This is what happens when Cat Scratch Fever goes untreated.

 

[R2D4]

So he's basically the conservative equivalent of Alec Baldwin and others that said the would move out of the country and the world would burn if GWB got re-elected? He can't see that?

 

[Glorified G]

No matter what he says, I still don't think I'll ever stop listening to this:

[dave is ok]

I love the hyperbole coming from idiots like this: "Obama = Evil, Romney = All that is good"

 

[Emitan]

Gay rights and not overtaxing the middle class are pretty awful.

 

[Manos: The Hans of Fate]

don't forget sorta creepy pedophile

That I did not know of.

 

[Rentahamster]

This is why blindly partisan politics can be as bad as team sports.

 

[GrizzNKev]

is this guy for real or is he just messin with me

 

[NathanMcMahon]

That I did not know of.

he talked about his penchant for underage girls in his Behind the Music. There's also some creepy shit surrounding his parental type custody of his first wife.

 

[BotoxAgent]

and he's an awful guitar player hack to boot (but he thinks he's good)

 

[Steelrain]

This motherfucker.

 

[Bulbo Urethral Baggins]

No matter what he says, I still don't think I'll ever stop listening to this:

Nope. It's been on my rotation for many many years. Good stuff.

Looks fine to me.

 

[EulaCapra]

I only knew Ted Nugent from his insane remarks and his terrible VH1 reality competition show forcing players to live in his estate while competitions boiled down to doing his yard work.

 

[Beer Monkey]

I mean, RomneyCare does cover abortions, but I still think he's evil.

 

[Cat Party]

He adopted an underage native Hawaiian girl so he could legally fuck her. Dude is pure sleaze.

 

[freenudemacusers]

he talked about his penchant for underage girls in his Behind the Music. There's also some creepy shit surrounding his parental type custody of his first wife.

Yeah,it's not so much the age of his wife but that her parents made him her legal guardian lulz.

Plus he gives me max hardcore vibes on top of everything else.

 

[Gaborn]

This is about as relevant as all those celebrities saying they'd move to Canada/Europe if Bush was re-elected. Stupid people saying stupid things.

edit: Mostly I was referring to "dead or in jail." the "stark contrast" between the two is pretty laughable in it's own right though.

 

[commedieu]

Guy is a draft dodging and game law violating schmuck.

well.. so is romney.. so maybe thats their connection?

Weird that a guy like him doesn't consider the presidency invalid to begin with...

 

[Red_Man]

 

[DTLIONS1013]

He might be crazy, but his concerts are amazing

 

[Cat Party]

Yeah,it's not so much the age of his wife but that her parents made him her legal guardian lulz.

You've got it all wrong. He was still married to his first wife when he became the girl's legal guardian. He never married the girl. Just used her up.

 

[GloveSlap]

No matter what he says, I still don't think I'll ever stop listening to this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0c3d7QgZr7g

Yeah I wont stop liking his music no matter what. He is really stupid though.

 

[Amir0x]

now we really gotta get Obama elected so that we can get Ted Nugent in jail again

 

[NathanMcMahon]

now we really gotta get Obama elected so that we can get Ted Nugent in jail again

sounds like a solid campaign platform to me

 

[zomaha]

Who is Ted Nugent?

Oh cmon dude.

 

[Angry Grimace]

His only real stance is the continued ability to shoot living things and he just pretends to care about what the rest of the Republican party says because they vaguely support his ability to shoot things.

Basically he's a simpleton like my stepdad who only really cares about shooting things, but pretends to understand politics as a whole because nobody will listen to you if you admit you only care about killing things. Also, he plays guitar.
