A Republican hopeful for Texas governor drew harsh criticism for hitting the campaign trail Tuesday with Ted Nugent, the controversial rocker who recently described President Barack Obama as a "subhuman mongrel."

Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott appeared at two campaign stops with the outspoken gun-loving musician-turned-commentator on the first day of early primary voting in the traditionally Republican state where he faces a surprisingly tough challenge by a rising-star Democrat.

Surprisingly tough challenge? Hahaha. Windy Davis is FINISHED. This is a last gasp. Most Texans agree with Nugent.

calling Obungo a sub human mongrel is a tremendous insult to mongrels everywhere!

Mongrels are by and large a decent bunch. Obungo....not so much.

Ive never met an evil dog! I have met some nasty dogs but never an evil one.

Obama embraces evil with all his strength..and seems to thrive on it.

Among people who earn their own money, it is actually more controversial to say that Hussein Osama isn’t a subhuman mongrel.

With Abbott's decision to campaign alongside Nugent garnering criticism, Abbott spokesman Matt Hirsch doubled down, saying Nugent "is a forceful advocate for individual liberty and constitutional rights."

Now this is what we need more of.
No running off and apologizing at the first accusation of "Racist!" and "Bigot!".

Hell no - throw it right back in their face and stand your ground!

And these morons have the gall to suggest that Wendy Davis is a threat? All she has demonstrated herself to be good at is talking. (Hmmm... that's all Barry is good at, come to think of it - but Wendy's white.)

Guess their heads would really explode if Clint E.(with chair), Rush L. and Mark L were to show up with him.

These LIBS and MSM sound like a bunch of 7th graders, without the class and common sense shown by most 12 year olds.

If BO were worth a crap he would be by the LIBS side and you wouldn’t be hearing of any ‘dirty play’ by the LIBS...- it would be called ‘using the tools you have at hand’.

“Texans deserve better than a statewide office holder and candidate running for governor who welcomes Ted Nugent and his repugnant comments,” said Texas Democratic Party chairman Gilberto Hinojosa.”

What a surprise! A Dem howls about an opponent!
