Nuge shoots off his mouth
NY Daily News
January 7, 2006

'I go for walks late at night in high-crime districts, and just hope," says Ted Nugent, gun nut, guitar legend and would-be Michigan governor.

He's also a budding reality-show star, which is why he was in town last week, reminding pinko journalists like me why we live in NYC.

"I first started coming here the summer of '67," he said on a sofa at the Ritz-Carlton. "Nothing has changed. Still garbage on the streets, still scaffolding and construction everywhere."

But apparently New York is just nuts for The Nuge. "I love it, and they love me. The painters and the doormen and the three-piece-suit guys and the cops and the undercover guys - I mean all the undercover guys just blow it for me. They wave and show me their guns. I consider us blood brothers."

Nugent - a four-term NRA director who's a Michigan sheriff and a Texas constable - says he wants to take another shot at the Lansing governor's mansion in 2010.

"I could have won in '06," he said of the election, won by Democrat Jennifer Granholm ("She is not doing an ugly job, but as the perfect woman, she is scrotumless.")

So why did he pull out? "I figured the last thing I need with my multiple TV shows, my children's charity, my activism, my board of directors on all kinds of organizations, was the governor responsibility in a scrambling cleanup, damage-control situation, as Michigan is."

Apart from the sexism and homophobia (gays get likened to drug addicts and devil worshipers), there's also plenty of stuff that wouldn't pass Al Sharpton's smell test. Nuge doesn't like "the pimps and whores and welfare brats" who think they've "got the right to my [money] because Jesse Jackson represents [them]."

"The average person who qualifies under the poverty level in America has [bleep]ing cell phones!" he continues. "And Tommy Hilfiger clothes! And bling-bling! I've seen them ... gold and jewelry and crack and meth! This is poverty?

"A topless grandmother in a sofa surrounded by dog feces? If you're poor, you can't have a dog! You start by eating the [bleep]ing pets! Am I out of my mind?"

Survey says?

(Season two of "Wanted: Ted or Alive" premieres tonight on cable network OLN.)

I couldn't agree more.

Hoooahh....rock on Ted!!  

He'd get my vote.

Ted kicks ass.

Ted just keeps getting better and better!!!

Just gotta love the man!

Unfortunately, for his (I believe, truthful) rants, he'll be labeled a racist in no time flat.

Man, that guy is brilliant.

Heard him speak at the 2005 NRA Convention in Houston.  He had 1000 people surrounding him, all pumping their fists in the air when he said, "I truly believe that liberalism is a mental illness."  

He is so dead right on about the "poor" having cell phones, nice cars and bling.  


CMOS

Back in the mid '70s, (Double Live Gonzo Tour) Terrible Ted was banned from the Portland Memorial Colliseum after a show with TRex (get it on - bang a gong).  Back then we had what was called 'Festival Seating' - basically - the first 30 rows of seats were removed, creating a first come, first served, mosh pit.  Good times.

As it turns out - one of our city commissoners, Connie McCready (sp) attends the show and has Ted banned for all the foul language, loud music and general debachery.

When Ted returned a few years later, he spends about 5 min between his first and second songs to explain how he's back and how he wants to shove a large knife (in his hand) into Commissioner McCready's chest.

They don't call him the Motor City Madman for nothing.

I would like to see Larry Craig and  Ted on the pred ticket for 08. Craig/Nuge 08, Hell yes!

Makes me wish he lived in Wisconsin so I could vote for him as governor.

Dream big!

I might have to move to Michigan if he wins in 2010... it might actually be worth living there after the Nuge cleans it up...

The offended reporter is what makes that article so priceless..

Quoted: He'd get my vote.

Mine too, but I'm not terribly optomistic about his chances.
Now, if we could cede Detroit to the Canucks, we might have something.

You mean...Females have no Balls?

People love brash talk...when they can back it up. Otherwise you're just a poser and we have plenty of those around.

God, Guns and Rock N Roll....His motto!


He is my hero.

I love Ted, he is not afraid to speak the utter truth. He is the one person that embodies my political philosophy.

Go Nuge!

Love that guy!

"You have Pedros Teds protection."

I'd vote for him for king.

Uncle Ted is da man

Time to put some Nuge and Damn Yankees in the CD player.

Every non dem is labeled a racist in one way or another in this state. Granholm is a terrible waste of skin.

Go Nuge!

TED FOR PRESIDENT.

He would have my vote and he might just clean up a few problems in the world.

Could you imagine him in a UN meeting going off?

But would you hit it????????

Someone needs to get his ass on this site and convince him to run for gov. of NY.  And then all the other commie states.

Quoted: I might have to move to Michigan if he wins in 2010... it might actually be worth living there after the Nuge cleans it up...

I actually agree.

Maybe, ok, probably!  But as soon as she started to talk, we'd HAVE to switch positions!

Uncle Ted in '08

flippin sweet!!!!!

Get him and Alan Keyes to run on a ticket together for president and get the damn 1986 full-auto ban off the books along with a few other hopelophobic laws.

Yeah, I agree...

This state would be a lot better without the idiots in D-Town, I have to say.
