I love Nuge, but this editorial is a bit meandering.
Nuges! Couldn’t have summed it up better!
I wish we could listen to him nationally. He should have a podcast that is downloadable or something...
bump. That a Detroit boy is a better Texan than sniveling native-born teasips is a disgrace. Austin is a blue Marxist pustule on the otherwise red posterior of the Republic of Texas—and it’s infection is powerful, indeed.
Excellent!
Oh yes we do. Screw Conservatives.
For the most part, media has no interest in the truth. “The Truth Shall Set You Free” is anathema to them at every level because they don’t want FREE people. They want a market for their crap and their advertisers’ crap. The proper role of the artist/writer is to endeavour to “set the truth free” so that it can help to free others.
Back at ya Ted! Great rant. Keep up the good work.
This doesn't mean that agree with everything you say, but I agree with most things. The lion's share. And I think the way you say it is really, really, cool.
Guitar players kick ass, two screaming, bent strings at time.
Ted Nugent is a member of that proud breed of barbarian called “West Crazy”.
And by “barbarian”, I mean it in the good way. Back in the days of the Germanic tribes, who originally came up with a lot of the ideas we call Common Law today.
With every man a warrior, and every warrior equal before the law, and the only ones fit to try a warrior were other warriors. That is, in order, the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, Equality before the Law, and Trial by a Jury of Your Peers. And if something isn’t specifically against the law, a warrior can do what he wants.
Not bad for a bunch of “barbarians”, huh?
Barbarians, unlike the “civilized” and effete Romans, whose Roman Law held just the opposite, that rulers are elite, that the public should be unable to elect their rulers, that the arrested are presumed guilty, and should be tried by the elites. And unless the law said you could specifically do something, it was automatically against the law.
Well, the heck with the Roman way.
As far as “West Crazy” goes, that’s a lot harder to explain. Some blame it on the dry heat from Texas West to the Arizona border with California. It’s why Tucson has more brujas than the rest of the country combined.
Put Ted Nugent in a bottle with “Raising Arizona”, add a bunch of hot Sonora Mexican food, a scorpion, and a bottle of Bacanora Mezcal, and shake well. Pour into a fast 4WD with a belt fed machine gun and a camouflage bikini clad co-ed with combat boots, cowboy hats all around, and you have one serving of “West Crazy”.
Don’t forget Ted’s guitar.
Now just a durn minute. Ethanol in yer gas tank might be a joke, but ethanol (doffs hat, holds over heart) is the active ingredient in beer. Serious business.
This fellow Texan full agrees with 22 out of his 22 points stated. The Nuge tells it like it is.
