Nugent Considering Run For Governor
Please, Oh Pretty Please! Nothing could be better for the Democratic Party than having a child molester and certified lunatic on the Republican ticket. Just out of curiousity, though, didn't he just move to Texas?

2. I'm sure his chickenhawk attempt to get out of Vietnam will go over well
Shitting in your pants for a week to run away from serving your country is just what people are looking for in a governor.

I'm sure there are enough yahoos that would vote for him though... it'd go a little like this:

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! FUCKIN A!!! NUGE IS THE MAN!!!

The only people who would vote for him would be pasty faced impotent men with large guns who are too chicken to take on a black bear with their bare hands...

According to a widely-circulated account which we’ve never seen refuted, here’s how Mr. Nugent dodged the draft. "He claims 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

14.  No mention anywhere of him
being a child molester, if so I'd like some facts. He IS a RW gun nut - a scarey person.

5. There are a lot of people who hold the "reformed" up as evidence
of the virtue of whatever that person's agenda is. Thinking, "if they can be saved and make good, so can I."

Is Nugent a CONVICTED child molester?

11. Never Convicted...

This Just In: Michael Jackson running for governor of California!

25. He became the legal guardian of a girl so he could
have sex with her "without any hassels." She was 17 at the time he became her guardian, but younger when the relationship started. In addition, he has bragged about his underage liasons.

He seems to be favoring older women now, though. Just recently he was forced to pay child support on one of his out-of-wedlock children. The mother was in her thirties, I think.

Spin Magazine listed him as #8 in their Rock 'n Roll Hall of Sleaze, but it's been discussed elsewhere.

27. Sick bastard. I'd LOVE to see him run. Man,
he'd be skewered in no time. He doesn't have a chance in hell of winning.

21. I remeber when this guy was running around here trying...
to get the spring bear hunt un-cancelled. He was an embarassment to the hunter's side and they knew it.

24. Oh yeah...Nugent running for Gov would be SWEEEET! Read these!

Controversies
An avid hunter, Ted Nugent was a frequent visitor to Canada until the government of Ontario cancelled the spring black bear hunt in 1999. Upset that he could not participate in the hunt, Nugent vowed to never set foot again in what he described as "an idiotic country". An outspoken pro-hunting media crusader, Nugent conducts 5 -10 prime media interviews every week. A longtime advocate of gun ownership rights, Nugent has served since 1995 on the board of directors of The National Rifle Association (NRA), of which he is a Life Member.

Nugent was a speaker at the NRA's 2005 National Convention in Houston. He received an enthusiastic reception from the delegates, telling them: "Remember the Alamo! Shoot 'em! To show you how radical I am, I want carjackers dead. I want rapists dead. I want burglars dead. I want child molesters dead. I want the bad guys dead. No court case. No parole. No early release. I want 'em dead. Get a gun and when they attack you, shoot 'em." (Source: "Ted Nugent to Fellow NRAers: Get Hardcore," Associated Press article, April 17, 2005)

Nugent and the animal rights movement have long had an adversarial relationship. In 2000, Nugent was jailed briefly following an incident outside a department store in San Francisco in which he allegedly spat on, threatened and physically assaulted several anti-fur demonstrators.

Nugent created and produced the award-winning Ted Nugent Spirit of the Wild PBS video series, raising in excess of $3,000,000 for PBS affiliates nationwide.


Draft Dodging
Nugent dodged the draft during the Vietnam War. In an interview for the Detroit Free Press (July 15, 1990), Nugent described how he avoided the draft: He claims that 30 days before his Draft Board Physical, he stopped all forms of personal hygiene. The last ten days he ingested nothing but junk food and Pepsi, and a week before his physical he stopped using the bathroom altogether, virtually living inside pants caked with excrement and stained by his urine. That spectacle won Nugent a deferment, he says. His quote: “ but if I would have gone over there, I’d have been killed, or I’d have killed, , or I’d have killed all the Hippies in the foxholes… I would have killed everybody.”
