Yesterday I posted a video of Ted Nugent inciting an Anaheim crowd to cheer the use of violence against Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein.

Today it appears that Fox & Friends has noticed that this video exists, but they just can't quite make out what Terrible Ted actually said, which - for the record - was this:

Nugent: I was in Chicago last week I said, "Hey Obama, you might want to suck on one of these, you punk?" Obama, he’s a piece of shit and I told him to suck on one of my machine guns. Let’s hear it for them. I was in New York and I said, "Hey Hillary, you might want to ride one of these into the sunset you worthless bitch." Since I’m in California, I’m gonna find Barbara Boxer she might wanna suck on my machine guns. Hey, Dianne Feinstein, ride one of these you worthless whore.


Even the Fox Friends think that commentary like this just might get you a visit from the Secret Service, but lets also think about the fact that Ted, who is decidedly male and kinda pale just threatened a) A Black Man and b) Three Women - you think he might also receive a visit from the FBI for possible a Hate Crime violations? Hmm...

Accoring to the current FBI Uniform Crime Stats the vast majority of Hate Crimes reported in the country are Anti-Black. (37% of all Victims) while the greatest percentage of these incidents, contrary to popular thought, are not acts of actual violence - but of intimidation (28% of all incidents)

More Data.

In 2005, law enforcement agencies reported that 4,691 hate crime offenses were racially motivated. Of these offenses:

* 68.2 percent were triggered by anti-black bias.
* 19.9 percent were motivated by anti-white bias.



And on the homo-erotic bent of Ted's rant.

Sexual-Orientation Bias

In 2005, law enforcement agencies reported 1,171 hate crime offenses based on sexual- orientation bias.

* 60.9 percent were anti-male homosexual.
* 19.5 percent were anti-homosexual.
* 15.4 percent were anti-female homosexual.



This is not play the "race card" or to suggest that Obama is gay, more that the preferred method for a typical "Alpha Male/Authoritarian/Asshole" is to attempt to sexually subvert and dominate his intended victim ("Suck on That") whether they are male or female, white or black. I would have included more data on Male/Female incidents of Assault and Intimidatation (not to mention rape) but it seems the FBI only breaks down the Murder stats by the gender of the victim, and for that most part their is little difference between blacks and whites in this area. Most murder victims are male (6,466 in 2005) rather than female (712), but then so are most of the offenders. Yet again, the "Alpha's" are busy little buggers aren't they?

The ultimately point - which even the Fox & Friends talking hair-pieces picked up on - is how likelyhood that Ted's ravings and the thunderous applause he received might help justify and excuse violence and intimidation tactics against these Democrats (or their supporters) in the future?

The Foxoids also happen to wonder, might this outburst hurt Ted's chances to follow in the footsteps of that great legendary statesman Jessie Ventura into the Michigan Governor's Mansion?

Gee, I think it just might.

1. thank God Ted didn't say
he was ashamed bush was from Texas. Then the media would REALLY have to pay attention and report on it 24/7. He'd then find people burning his CDs in parking lots and radio stations banning him from airplay not to mention his concerts suffering from "low attendance". Oh, and did I mention death threats?

I guess threatening two Presidential Candidates and two sitting Senators is a-okay to the media as long as you don't say you're ashamed the President comes from your State.

2. We could always tell him to just
Shup up and Sing... except that he can't sing.

And Frank Zappa years ago clowned him on the guitar, so that's pretty much pointless too.

10. It is not that the President is untouchable...
... Only Republican presidents are untouchable.

It is OK to bash Democratic presidents...

16. I was going to make a thread on this very point.
The nation went bat-shit crazy when the Dixie Chicks said they were ashamed of being from the same state as * and they did not agree with him. They even made a documentary to show what they went through all for voicing an opinion. Pearl Jam ran into similar opposition when at a concert they Eddie Vedder said unflattering things about * and war in general.

Where is the outrage now? Why does this asswipe basically get a free pass and gentle bemusement from the MSM especially Faux? It's disgusting.

8. Ted Nugent: "Making Dick DeVos seem reasonable"
Or maybe that's part of the Republican master plan to put DeVos in the governor's mansion.

9. He is a low life
The World According to Ted Nugent:

ON OTHER PEOPLE

"My being there (South Africa) isn't going to affect any political structure. Besides, apartheid isn't that cut-and-dry. All men are not created equal." - Detroit Free Press Magazine , July 15, 1990

ON MILITARY SERVICE

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, 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." - Detroit Free Press Magazine , July 15, 1990

Find it hard to believe someone in the creative arts is such a hater, but aren't most Chickenhawks? All talk, but when it is time to walk the walk, they are missing in action. Typical, but why to so many americans buy into this crap?

13. I remember cranking Cat Scratch Fever in the darkroom
developing photographs with the stereo blaring..

He's made a lot of money, but he's really taken a sharp swing to the right. Maybe he's always been there, I don't know. He's got money, a sense of showmanship, a NRA card, and an attitude. And a gun.

That strikes me as trouble.

18. I don't get it- Machine guns on stage with threats
I'm waiting for this psychopath to be frog marched off to Gitmo. Death threats with automatic weapons to a bunch of rednecks on stage. Then, the Fox Friend puppet says a bunch of times, "I listened three times, but couldn't UNDERSTAND what he said"? Anyone who can read a teleprompter and and earpiece knows fucking well what he said.

Great! He a fucking lunatic. :nuke:

Wait... I have an idea- I'll dig through my 70's album record collection, find that album with him flailing his gutair hands put a bunch of dog shit on it, then send the package with "eat this" and see if I don't get in trouble for sending that in the mail, HEH?

23. these Fox people are just sickening
They treat the obviously paranoid and insane Nugent like he's just a folksy, good ole boy. No. Nugent should be in prison for making multiple public death threats, and that's all there is too it.

25. The Nuge is to great guitar players as Fox News is to reputable news outlets
Sorry Ted, but you're as clueless as you are untalented.

26. The more right-wing nutcases running in '08 the better for us.
He should do well with the "chicks" after they see the artwork for his upcoming album.
