So Ted Nugent roams a concert stage while toting automatic weapons, calls Barack Obama "a piece of -----" and says he told Obama to suck on one of his machine-guns. He also calls Hillary Clinton a "worthless bitch" and Dianne Feinstein a "worthless whore."
That Nugent, he's a man's man. He talks the talk and walks the walk, right?
Except when it was time to register for the draft during the Vietnam era. By his own admission, Nugent stopped all forms of personal hygiene for a month and showed up for his draft board physical in pants caked with his own urine and feces, winning a deferment. Creative!
Ah, but that was a long time ago. Nugent isn't just a washed-up rocker -- he's a right-wing madman who's not afraid to call out some of the leading Democrats in language so vile it makes the Dixie Chick Natalie Maines' comments about President Bush sound like a love poem.
Read the rest ...
Another right wing example of taking personal responsibility ... the standard that applies only to other people. To top it off, they're so quick to point the finger at those whom they accuse of being "haters" .... unless it's their own.
We'll just add ole' Ted to the list of draft dodgers:
- George W. Bush
- Donald Rumsfeld
- Dick Cheney (had better things to do)
- and virtually every other chicken-hawk Neocon who can't get enough of war ... as long as someone else is fighting it for them.
