AUSTIN, Texas -- Musician Ted Nugent is getting mixed reviews for his performance at the second inauguration of Republican Texas Gov. Rick Perry.

Nugent appeared on stage at the black-tie gala Tuesday in a cutoff T-shirt with a Confederate flag on it. He used machine guns as props and shouted offensive remarks about non-English speakers, according to people at the event.

Perry's spokesman, Robert Black, said Nugent is a good friend of the governor's. He said Perry did not put any stipulation on what Nugent would play. GOP strategist Royal Masset said Nugent was "a horrible choice."

Gary Bledsoe, president of the Texas chapter of the NAACP, said the Confederate flag symbolizes "the enslavement of African-Americans and more recently the symbol of hate groups and terrorists."

Nugent could not be reached for comment because he was hunting, according to his spokeswoman.

...and I just watched a TV commercial on FOX with Joseph Kennedy explaining to the people of New England " don't worry, heating oil help is on it's way from our good friends in Venezuela"

It's a free-for-all!

Ah yes, the "Blanket" statement to cover this Colored persons ignorance.

[xcamel]

I guess Perry now knows which members of his staff that should be fired with all due haste.

LOL, I saw that commercial in November during a trip to Boston and almost fell out of my chair. Are the people in New England too dense to know that our 'friends' in Venezuala would like our presidents head on a pike?

Doesn't Ted get politically correct, multicultural brownie points for wearing a Native American headdress???

Having grown up in Detroit - here's the Ted Nugent I remember. ( I guess he's always had quite a sense of fashion):

[Volunteer]

Dear Uncle Ted -

I still think your song "Stranglehold" is one of the best guitar licks ever.

Bad costume choice.

I didn't think Damn Yankees were all that bad,

If Nugent came on stage wearing that identical outfit but bashed George Bush the media would be slobbering all over him in adoration.

[auto power]

...well....all politics are local and Ted is in Texas....

[SwankyC]

Are the people in New England too dense to know that our 'friends' in Venezuala would like our presidents head on a pike?

So do most people in New England.

[StoneWall Brigade]

He's great man standing up to the PC

[outinyellowdogcountry]

Ted has a cookbook "Kill It and Grill It". Love the name but I am sure PETA would have a press statement about that.

[Fierce Allegiance]

So nugent spoke the truth. Big damn deal.


It offends me when people are offended by the truth.

[N8VTXNinWV]

Huh... Mom, Dad and Joani were going...I'll have to check to get their opinion. LOL! :o)

Hope all is well, sissy!

Looks like Gary Bledsoe has his hands full. He is protesting this as well.

He's a KooKoo bird. Probably ate too many.

Full bluntal Nugity. You gotta love it. BTW, his concert at Silver Mountain last summer was one of the best I'd heard in years. Brought tears to my eyes, it did.

You have to admire someone who uses a Ma Deuce as a stage prop.

And the libs in Mas$holechusetts are eating it up with a spoon. Retards.

Nugent could not be reached for comment because he was hunting, according to his spokeswoman.

ROFLOL Go Ted!

Do our friends in New England care?

Since the commercials are about free and reduced cost heating oil, I'm sure they think it's all due to the charity and efforts of the Kennedys.

[griswold3]

Full bluntal Nugity.

LOL!

[wku man]

Here's my contribution:

Dear Uncle Ted:
You rock! Don't change a thing about your act, your music, or your dedication to hunting and the outdoors. If lilly-livered RINOs can't hanle your performances, tough sh** on them. Maybe you can use them as paintball fodder on a future episode of "Surviving Nugent".
PS: any time you want to give the hunting or fishing here in Idaho a try, let me know.

[kalee]

Sorry I should have been more specific. :) Do they care if our 'friends' in Venezuala would like our presidents head on a pike?

[zeugma]

Ted Nugent for President!

I wouldn't have any problem with that, other than his apparent support of Rick Perry. 

[gun_supporter]

I love this guy! haha

What ever happened to the 1st Amendment? The New Socalist Order seems to be using it as the new point of attack lately.

They always say freedom of speech does not give one the right to shout "Fire" in a crowded theatre.
But what if the theatre is actually on fire?

Silly Sam! Don't you know that the First Amendment only applies to the Lefty Progressive Foul-Mouth Moonbats? Anything pro-America, pro-Second-Amendment, pro-sovereign-nation, pro-conservative is now classified as "Hate Speech."

Nugent could not be reached for comment because he was hunting....

Snort! Priceless!

Silly Sam!

Sorry. I lost my mind for a minute.
