Ted Nugent throws a tanturm over Wolf Blitzer...

Calls CNN "Nazis" and claims he never said any of the bad stuff.

Nugent Denies History Of Bigoted, Misogynistic Comments, Compares CNN To Nazi Propagandists

Ted Nugent denied his long history of incendiary comments while appearing on the campaign trail with Republican Texas gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbott. Reacting to condemnation of his comments from CNN Wolf Blitzer, Nugent compared the network to Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.

Nugent, a conservative columnist, National Rifle Association board member and spokesman for the Outdoor Channel has endorsed Abbott and introduced him at a campaign event on Tuesday, describing him as his "blood brother."

Asked by reporters about his past comments, Nugent told them that "all the negative stuff is dishonest, all the really wonderful stuff is accurate."

Greg Abbott is not that smart and is running a bad campaign. Being pals and blood brothers with Nugent is a dumb idea and will hurt Greg with sane voters in the general election. The more that Nugent draws attention to himself, the better it will be for Wendy Davis in the general election
