No, I simply think Nugent and Kid Rock are nuts. They don't seem like they're "all there." A few slices short of a whole loaf. I agree with them politically (most of the time), but I think they're both wackos, personality-wise. Then there's Gene Simmons. Need I say more?

There are plenty of cool conservative country artists, but the right-leaning rockers are all a bit loony.

It doesn't take any courage to be a conservative country artist.

The reason conservative rockers seem crazy is that, only people who honestly don't care what people think of them, have the b@lls to admit being conservative in the Rock and Roll community.

There are likely others, but they keep their politics to themselves.

If you honestly didn't care what people thought of you, you might seem a little crazy too.

The same thing can be said about conformists.

Undomesticated conservatives make the party more interesting.

Well ya gotta look at the Generations and genre of their prospective musics country is usually a laid back type of music but Rock and Roll is exactly that Rock and Roll i must say i don't like to much of todays rock its well wimpy and crying rock and roll when i was growing up was hard hitting with the exception of a few bands who fit the mold of wimpy Ted Nugent aknows how to get a crowd rocking through great music Gene Simmons is an actor on stage just like the other band members it was for show to pump up the crowds

Heck i had the Kiss band painted on my bedroom wall when i was a kid full Murial when they came out i thought they were better than sliced bread i since then grown up a bit [Just a little ] But i still enjoy listening to them both the older stuff.

Gene Simmons may act crazy just like Ted Nugent But they believe in America they show it every time they speak Dennis Miller is Crazy too But alot of his political views are very conservative

I personally don't prefer country music its good to a certain point but when they start the crying in your beer stuff i change the station if I'm gonna cry i want some good blues to do it to Albert Collins comes to mind or BB King.

I give these Guys a fair share of grief to when i dont like what they say But everyone to their personal views thats why the country is Free thank God for that !!

Hey man, I don't want to get into this with you on this issue, BUT the good old country boys do not make grade for me.

If you like country thats great. I personally will stick with the likes of KR, Nugent, PT (The Who) and rockers that can fight the trend.

The country bunch already has the Nascar Dads sewn up. I prefer to go other ways.

If you don't like rockers, thats on you. Pick up your fiddle and stomp your feet (Thats cool), I'll take the rockers. :)
