Written by Ted Nugent, the rock singer and hunter/naturalists, upon hearing
that California Senators Barbara Boxer and Diane
Feinstein denounced him for being a "gun owner" and a "Rock Star".

This was his response, after telling the senators about his past
contributions to children's charities and scholarship foundations, which
have totaled more than $13.7 million in the last 5 years!!

I'm a Bad American-this pretty much sums it up for me. I like big trucks big
boats, big houses, and naturally, pretty women.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some mid-level
governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to
crack addicts squirting out babies.

I don't care about appearing compassionate.

I think playing with toy guns doesn't make you a killer.

I believe ignoring your kids and giving them Prozac might.

I think I'm doing better than the homeless.

I don't think being a minority makes you noble or victimized.

I have the right not to be tolerant of others because they are different,
weird or make me mad. This is my life to live, and not necessarily up to
others expectations.

I know what SEX is and there are not varying degrees of it.

I don't celebrate Kwanzaa. But if you want to that's fine; I just don't feel
like everyone else should have to.

I believe that if you are selling me a Dairy Queen shake, a pack of
cigarettes, or hotel room you do it in English.

As of matter of fact, if you are an American citizen you should speak
English. My uncles and forefathers shouldn't have had to die in vain so you
can leave the countries you were born in to come disrespect ours, and make
us bend to your will. Get over it.

I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry butt if you're running
from them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word
'freeze' or 'stop' in English, see the previous line.

I don't use the excuse "it's for the children" as a shield for unpopular
opinions or actions.

I know how to count votes and I feel much safer letting a machine with no
political affiliation do a recount when needed.

I know what the definition of lying is, and it isn't based on the word "is"
- ever.

I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you qualify
for any special loan programs, gov't sponsored bank loans, etc., so you can
open a hotel, 7-Eleven, trinket shop, or any thing else, while the
indigenous peoples can't get past a high school education because they can't
afford it.

I didn't take the! initiative in inventing the Internet.

I thought the Taco Bell dog was funny.

I want them to bring back safe and sane fireworks.

I believe no one ever died because of something Ozzy Osbourne, Ice-T or
Marilyn Manson sang, but that doesn't mean I want to listen to that crap
from someone else's car when I'm stopped atm a red light. But I respect your
right to.

I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment than
working at Blockbuster or Jack In The Box.

I don't want to eat or drink anything with the words light, lite or fat-free
on the package.

Our soldiers did not go to some foreign country and risk their lives in vain
and defend our Constitution so that decades later you can tell me it's a
living document ever changing and is open to interpretation. The guys who
wrote it were light years ahead of anyone today, and they meant what they
said - now leave the
document alone, or there's going to be trouble.

I don't hate the rich. I help the poor. I know wrestling is fake.

I've never owned, or was a slave, and a large percentage of our forefathers
weren't wealthy enough to own one either. Please stop blaming me because
some prior white people were idiots - and remember, tons of white, Indian,
Chinese, and other races have been enslaved too - it was wrong for every one
of them.

I believe a self-righteous liberal Democrat with a cause is more dangerous
than a Hell's Angel with an attitude.

I want to know exactly which church is it where the "Reverend" Jessie
Jackson preaches; and, what exactly is his job function.

I own a gun, you can own a gun, and any red blooded American should be
allowed to own a gun, but if you use it in a crime, then you will serve the
time.

I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue
to make more. If it makes you mad, then invent the next operating system
that's better and put your name on the building. (Ask your buddy that
invented the Internet to help you.)

I don't believe in hate crime legislation. Even suggesting it makes me mad.
You're telling me that someone who is a minority, gay, disabled, another
nationality, or otherwise different from the mainstream of this country has
more value as a human being that I do as a white male. If someone kills
anyone, I'd say that it's a hate crime.

We don't need more laws! Let's enforce the ones we already have.

I think turkey bacon, turkey beef, turkey fake anything sucks.

I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child-it takes a parent
with the guts to stand up to the kid and spank his butt and say! "NO!" when
it's necessary to do so.

I'll admit that the only movie that ever made me cry was Ole Yeller.

I didn't realize Dr. Seuss was a genius until I had a kid.

I will not be frowned upon or be looked down upon or be made to keep silent
because I have these beliefs and opinions. I thought this country allowed me
that right.

I will not conform or compromise just to keep from hurting somebody's
feelings. I'm neither angry nor disenfranchised, no matter how desperately
the mainstream media would like the world to believe otherwise.

Yes, I guess by some people's definition, I may be a bad American. But
that's tough!

Ted Nugent rules.

He never said it, but it is pretty good.  Another Urban Legend...

His denial is on his website.

I Have the Greatest Respect for Ted Nugent I Like his Cut through the Bull Shit attitude. I really want To See Diane Feinstein & Barbara Boxer Survive Nugent On his TV show

I love how this thing keeps recuirculating with different authors.

George Carlin didn't write it either. Go to his websiteor Ted's and post this and you will get rather rudely treated.  I do agree with it though.
