Rockbama Does Invesco
Human Events ^ | 29 August 2008 | Ted Nugent

Posted on 08/30/2008 6:41:35 AM PDT by oblomov

UPDATED): While Senator Obama was giving his acceptance speech at Invesco Field in Denver to tens of thousands of Fedzilla supporting numbskulls, I was busy pummeling musical fun gluttons at the New York State Fair with my R&B spirit-infested guitar as I’ve done over 6,000 times so far in my gravity-defying career.

My ace crew taped Senator Obama’s speech so that I could watch it after I got off stage and now I’m slamming this out on my laptop. I won’t go away. Write that down. Again.

Before I slice and dice the Obaminator’s speech, let’s get one thing clear. Though the Obaminator may be treated like a rockstar, he has much more in common with a one hit wonder, no talent pop star.

The Obaminator brought in Fedzilla musicians Sheryl Crowe and Stevie Wonder to electrify the throngs of Fedzilla supporters. Political ideologies aside, these gentlemen and their killer musicians are the real McCoy when it comes to music, and I salute them for that.

The title of rockstar is meaningless and petty, and typically indicative of a fashion-driven dope. Like those dedicated musicians still celebrating our honed craft 50 plus years later, it is the soul and genuine emotion and authority of the music of our black heroes like Bo Diddly and Chuck Berry that still lives on in my musical dreams that puts timeless integrity into every glowing guitar lick. Not the transparent symbolism of celebrity or rockstar sillyness. Go figure.

It’s not Invesco field...it’s InREZKO field.

“...give the GI bill to people who serve their “communities.”

Hey, pal: the GI Bill is for those who wore the uniform, not tye-died jeans and a dirty t-shirt.”

agree.

but socialists on campi have already diluted the gi bill with their grants to socialist kids.

I especially like Nugent’s point about Sheryl Crowe and Stevie Wonder being part of the state.

The Obamapalooza denied the fans a real opportunity. Ted Kennedy, Bill Clinton, and Chris Dodd did not sing "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer." Not sure how he is with a slide...Maybe next time.

Apparently Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann did get into a Wango Tango over at MSNBC.

In the future, they should stick to the music. A concert, minus the socialist speeches, would have been a better show. Besides higher taxes and deficits, means less CD and concert ticket buying...

Maybe at next year's White House Correspondents Dinner, eh? Slick Willy can play a pretty mean Sax. They missed an opportunity.

Perhaps Ted could do an unplugged version in their honor.

He can't win a debate over substance. And that single out of Denver is a huge flop with the American people. If they've seen it, they know how awful it was. They may talk that way in Europe but never in America!
