This is almost a month old, but I just stumbled on it and thought this might make some good debate among the FReepers...

I love Ted, but considering his track record of infidelity, it seems a bit hypocritical coming from him.

While I’m only 21 and admire the Nuge for his clean lifestyle, I have no problem having a few drinks with friends every now and then. I’ll never touch any drugs, though.

Drugs are for losers.

Hippies were just another symptom, not the cause.

While I agree with most everything Ted said, I must say the music wasn’t all soulless.

Has Nugent ever responded to allegations from Courtney Love that she "serviced" him back stage at one his concerts when she was something like 12 or 13-years-old?

This from a guy that penned such classy songs as “Cat Scratch Fever” and “Wango Tango”?

Some people blame all those things on Poverty.

He left off illegal immigration, and massive legal third world immigration which are existential threats to this country. And, yes, I blame it on the sixties counter-culture.

Once again Eric Cartman nails it (regarding hippies).

I like the Nuge.

This article of his goes along with all the boomer bashing threads here on FR. We are overun with boomer bashing lately.

Hendrix was a far better guitarist than Nugent.

What’s there to debate? The title says it all. :)

"The Summer of Drugs"

Ahhh, but it was fun. I think, I'm not quite sure.

I applaud ted for his pro 2A stance, but google the lyrics to “Wango Tango” before people turn him into a Father Knows Best figure.

Is this the same Ted who once made an album with about 30 hash pipes on the cover art? Just what kind of journey to the center of the mind is this guy on?
